Pet Poll

[Eli]

We currently have one fish. We orginally bought three, but under the great supervision of my sister two died.

Now the aquarium is in the living room. No one bothers to feed the poor fish except myself, and even I do it only once a week.

It barely moves... I think it's time to feed it.

[Richard Bruns]

The best way to keep fish is in an outdoor fish pond. If you get a good ecosystem going they can live off bugs and plants and other things and you don´t have to feed them. Plus the environment is a lot healthier for them, and they live a lot longer. Our goldfish Moby (so named because it is huge and white) is about 4 years old now. He ate about 500 tadpoles each spring in order to get to the size he is today. Our other fish pond has about ten goldfish, all feeder fish. They cost a dollar for the whole lot, and are thriving. They are too small to eat tadpoles, so that pond resulted in a huge crop of toads last year.

It looks like I am the only one so far to vote for iguana, snake, and tarantula. We don´t have these, but it would be cool if we did. My brother actually subscribed to a herpetology magazine for about a year once. Reptilies tend to be difficult to care for properly, though.

Tarantular and a sheep. Human, and of course... banana.

*I only chose Human because I would like a chimp- and looking at some of the South Wales talent tehre isn't much differnece.

Cats are really all I care for. They are reasonably self-sufficient and independent, cleaner than any others, don't smell bad, make that wonderful purring noise, help control household pests and are just so damned cute.

[Thorn]

Tarantulas of course, I am their leader.

[alva]

Cats, did anyone say cats

2 cats here...


And what Boris said...

[Datajack Franit]

Boris- I agree with you for cats, but I hardly call an animal wiping his ass with his tongue 24/7 "clean"

[GePap]

A ferret would fit under other mammal, not rodents (just being technical here).

I have had oevr my years a couple of dogs (one currently), and a cat. I preffer dogs, though cats are OK.

I don't get Fish: they ae living decorations. Birds, such as parrots are Parakeets are fine, as are reptilkes. At least you can hold them without killing them, like Fish.

[Datajack Franit]

Fish are scary

[OliverFA]

I love cats

[Thorn]

I like piranas my neighbors don't, but they've stopped complaing as of recently heh heh heh heh....

[pg]

A friend of mine has a whole salt water coral reeks set up in his living room. The firsh and reef animals are really cool to look at and they make a great conversation piece.

The tank and equipement cost much denaro though and he says it was a pain in the ass to get everything growning the way it was supposed to.

[Wittlich]

4 Cats here. Yes, I have a regular pride going on.

[Bosh]

squirrel!

Had a dog who died fairly recently. She was a great black lab, even rescued a case of beer that was floating out to sea once.

I like piranas my neighbors don't,

They taste great fried, they're the only fish I've ever caught since they're the only onces that are fun and easy to catch, just use a chunk of raw beef
