My sister has a dog she calls Benji, and even though he is hers, the whole family has fallen in love with him. My sister also has a Panda Bear hamster named bear too. Here's a picture of Benji

Wow! What a cutie! You know, my mom had a dog named Benji. XD

Aww, she did? Cool!! What a small world.

=/

Bad experiences with animals.

One of my first dogs, Billo, tried to bite me because he got jealous of me getting attention from my dad, so he had to shoot him.

Second dog, oh, I wish I could remember her name, died from old age and fell down outside stairs while there was a storm.

Had a cat, Tabitha, can't remember what happened to her.

After those three, my family got Defa, a German Shepard-Kelpie cross.

Had numerous fish, too. One got overfed by my young sister.

Heh, had rabbits. Four, total, I think. First two ran away due to carelessness. The other two, which we got later turned out to be lesbians. Yes, that's right, lesbian rabbits.

Had chickens, too. Four of them, one for each child in my family. Mine had a crooked beak, and wasn't expected to live long. But Supah Chooky showed them all up, and outlived the other three down at my grandma's farm. =3

In the past two years, we've had three different cats. Coco, Jessie, and Sasha. Coco and Jessie both got run away, in their respective order. Poor Sasha was killed by a neighbour's dog.

At the moment, cat number 5. Cora, I don't know how it's spelt, my brother named her 'Cola', but in Japanese katakana. I just call her 'Cola'.

In the past month, Defa, who had mentioned before, passed away from old age, and we have her burried in the backyard. We made a small garden near her grave, and my bro put up a small solar light for her. Spooky thing is, I SWEAR ON MY LIFE, I've seen her at least five times since I buried her.

But yeah, sorry for the depressing tales, but as I said, haven't had much luck with animals. =/

Well, right now I have a tabby cat and two parakeets. Our cat really doesn't have a name, we just refer to it as "The Cat" or "Kitty". I used to have a golden retreiver but we had to put her down because she had cancer. And I once had turtles, a crayfish, and a goldfish. They all died within a month. (the goldfish in a day)

due to one of my sisters being allergic to fur, we've only had a small amount of pets in my house.

first of all we had some goldfish that lived in the baby bath we used to be washed in. they all died one by one over the course of two weeks. ^^;

then the younger sister was given a hamster by a family who were going back to china and couldn't take him with us. he was named 'twitch' by them, lived for about twice the age hamsters seem to live to, escaped at regular intervals (usually at 3am on school nights, i had to catch him) and bit everyone but me.

when he died, my youngest sister was given a gineapig who was given the name of 'gideon' which quickly shortened to giddy. he seemed a bit lonely, so i bought a rabbit to keep him company, who i named 'frodo' as i was in my LoTR phase back then.

sadly after a few short years, the rabbit first got flystrike (where they lay eggs and get moggots in their fur/skin) and then got his back leg caught in his hay. he was taken to the vet and was bandaged up, but got weaker and weaker and eventually we had to put him down when it was clear that he was only suffering.

i loved that bunny. ;_; he was the only pet that was truely mine, dispite having to look after both my sister's pets when they lost interest after a few weeks.

then giddy died a month later, from flystrike. dumb flies, i washed those poor animals almost every other day when needed! x.x;

i've had no pets since then, (the younger sister had some fish, they died when she seemed to loose interest) but i'd love a cat once i get a place that allows them.

I really like having a cat. Sure. Mine's the one that ran away. But the other cats like me better than my two sisters.

I've had two hamsters. One died of an infection of some kind, the other one ran away after the cat knocked a tunnel off it's cage. =0

I remember having a hermit crab too. We named it Buttons. It died of cold. It lived near the front door and it was winter when we got it.

I had goldfishes my entire lives because my parents refuse to get a pet that can walk around the house with fur.

That said, I DID once had a Jindo puppy briefly named Bomi (basically Korean for "spring", possibly cuz' he was born in March) for a while before we moved and had to give him away. I loved that little guy and I still occasionally wonder how he's doing. My main regret is that I never took a pic of him.

I currently have 9 goldfishes: Tiny (the biggest one), Big Joe (the smallest), Sakura, Larry and Floyd, Mario and Luigi, Piff, and Winston. Although they ain't dogs, I still love and given concern for them.

I hope to get a dog again soon someday though. I absolutely love dogs.

Fishes, for a while. And well, my dog- Nikki died January 16th, 2005. She was born around December 7th 1988. Long life I'd say, she died painlessly. While alseep- old age.

And I cant find any pictures of her. D:

Right now I have three fishes: Misato, Sushi and Lucifer. Actually, my roommate Rachael and I have joint custody of them. She spoils them with food. I clean the tank. It's sort of a crappy deal, but at least I got to name two of them. Sushi is a goldfish. Lucifer is some sort of red fish. Misato is some sort of multicolored fish. Their hobbies include swimming in and out of the castle and not being overfed.

My dad has agreed to buy me a kitten this coming May. The conditions are that it will be less than 10 weeks old (so we can make sure it doesn't have any previous personality quirks) and it has to be a tomcat (because they are typically calmer). I want to name it Almanzo. Sometimes I will call it Manzo or Manly. I'm really excited about it.

I also have some sea monkeys. I hate them, they're creepy and I can't wait for them to die.

1 Siberian Husky - Houdini "Dini" - female
1 German Shepard/Chow mix - Sierra - female
And the two that I don't like:
1 Chihuahua - Oscar - male
1 cat - Little Cat (Don't ask.) - male

Houdini? That's so cute! ^^ Hey! Can she pull a rabbit out of her dogdish? XD

Seriously though. Huskies are awesome dogs if you ask me. =)

I've got a mastiff mix, Buster, who belongs to my mother, and two American Pitbull terriers, Apollo and Zeus, who are mine.

I've also got a tropical fish tank, but none of the fish are named because I think naming fish is weird.

I had a cat but I hated it and it eventually ran away.

I have a west highland terrier named Dutchess. she's a good dog, she just turned 10 last december.

she's asleep most of the time, only getting up to go to the bathroom,take a walk, or eat. but really don't all dogs do that?

I have 2 kittycats ^^ One named Cinthea that is as old as I, and one named Moo Cow that is 10 years old this April.

My mom has 8 Pomeranians.....yeah. x.x

One Dwarf Rabbit named Magic (because we were thinking about the bunnies that pop out of tophats =D)

Aaaand we have about 3 canaries. (sp?)

I wuv them all!

~T2K

Wow! So many cool pets! XD

I used to have a dachshund/something mix named Blondie, but she died in November 2004 at the age of 16. Now I have a schnauzer/poodle mix named Pebbles. She's annoying, but I love her anyway.

My mom used to have 3 cats. I'd like to have cats, but I'm allergic to them. 🙁

I also have a bunch of fish in the pond outside.

Hmm.... When I was born, we had two cats in our house who both lived pretty long and I'm guessing happy lives. ^^; Their names were Sam and Kitty. Sam ran away when I was barely a year old, and we soon adopted a new one from the animal shelter whose name was Angus.

Angus, a black and white medium-sized cat, was my baby (well okay, he was a family cat, but I claimed him and called him mine) and grew up with me 'cause Kitty (an orange medium tabby) hated to be around people and always tried to scratch me if I went near her. Angus passed away when I was nine, and Kitty when I was twelve.

When I was five or six, we adopted a dog whom we named Zelda (yes, after the game series. My parents came up with it, which really makes me giggle :3). She is a husky mix and she is still alive today. She's getting old though, we're watching her carefully... She's very healthy and we're not too worried ^^

Three months or so after Kitty passed away, we adopted a second dog. Sticking with the Zelda theme, we named her Epona (we were going to name her Link, but "Link is a guy and this puppy's a girl! That wouldn't work!"). Epona is a brown and black border collie mix and she is the sweetest, most affectionate dog I have ever come across in my life. Dumb as a box of rocks and rather loud, but sweet and apologetic if she does something wrong.

About that time I had been asking my parents if I could adopt a bird. I had done extensive research on them and had proven to them I could take care of one. They reluctantly agreed, but put off actually getting one until I fell in love with a stray cat's kittens and decided "I want a kitten instead". They were much more comfortable with a cat than a bird, so they allowed me to adopt one of the kittens, whom I named Iruka-sensei (so much for keeping guy names away from female animals....). I reference and post pictures of her a lot on the boards 'cause I swear, she is a DEMON.

I think to prove she's a demon, the last picture I posted of her here was her attacking the Tails Doll. :3

Other than that, we've had various little critters like frogs, tadpoles, guppies.... **nods sagely**

~Shadowed Spirit Sage

I had a demonic bird that kept trying to bite me when I got within 5 feet of her cage. She wouldn't let me hold her, play with her... or feed her even. Unless it was millet ;3. Funny thing though. She came with the name Ms. Chuckles. OO?

I know about demonic pets. I liked that photo of your cat though. X3
