My wife's family and I have a Miniature Horse ranch along the Clark's Fork river in Montana and boy do we have a lot of critters.

200+ cows
100+ pigs
87 Miniature Horses and Donkeys
2 Full Sized Horses
2 Miniature Pot Bellied Pigs
30 cats (only 15 have figured out the doggy door)
4 dogs

My wife has a soft spot for animals. Most of the cats were strays or rescues from a dairy her and her sister worked at. All of the cats are fixed except one of the white Siamese that her dad wants to breed (just what we need....MORE CATS!!!) Every time she brings another one home she says "this is the last time I swear".

The four dogs are:
Molly - Australian Shepherd
Buster - Border Collie/Aussy Mix
Toby - Mutt
Shiloh - Mutt

The Pot Bellied Pigs are Phil and Penelopy. The two big horses are Honey and Jessie. All of the mini horses and cats have name also but I would have to ask my wife what the all are. The livestock I wouldn't consider pets even though most of the dairy cows do have names just not ones you would want to say at church or at a school!*&#$@#@#@@!*!

I do Basset Hound Rescue....usually i have 4 of them at home...but i'm down to two..and both of these are mine,adopted them.

Melvin...the terror...he loves carrying around potatoes...he weighs about 50 lbs..looks like a dwarf bloodhound. He also buried a set of keys a few months back...still havent found them.

Bessie Bagle ( shes a mix of basset / beagle / blu tic hound) shes the older gal...small in size..and very spoiled.

It was as hard for me as it was for my children when we had to put our previous dog down.

And thanks for reminding people not to buy puppies from pet stores. Puppy mills are pure evil.:evil:

Just visit the Humane Society's website and watch some of the videos.

I'm so sorry about Gizmo. Luckily, he had a good life with you.

OK, I now have 2 cats, a 1,000 chipmunks, 400 squirrels, 600 moles, and way too many deer in my gardens.

In the past I have had horses (Arab, Miniatures, Shetland, Australian Stock Horse), goats, rabbits, chickens, ducks, sheep, a cow, doves, a border collie, an Australian shepard, a German shepard, a scotty, a poodle, a parakeet, a hampster, a snake, many cats, and too many kangaroos in my garden.

Vape On!!!!
