I'm Currently Feeling: | How cute are all those pics????
I love animals and can't imagine not having them around the house, they are so entertaining.
We have a rescue cat that we've had for 6 years in January and she's adorable. I always had cats when I was growing up and went on and on about having one when I moved out...well hubby went and got her for me as a surprise gift and she's been my little ray of sunshine ever since!! She is way too spoilt - a proper little diva
We also have a rescue dog who we got just over a year ago and he is lovely too. He absolutely loves having cuddles, and even tries to kiss the cat, which she's not too happy about!!
They both get so spoiled, but we can't help it...and yes, we talk to them like children, even though it's blatently obvious they haven't got a clue what we're saying  Our mates think we're mad!

I'm Currently Feeling: | I don't have any 'babies' anymore...
My babies were my rats - but once i'd had Ewan i didn't have the time to give them the attention they deserved so after my last boy was Put to sleep we decided not to have any more. I really miss my animals as i have always been a very animal orientated person prefering them to humans!!
We are thinking of going on the list for a Rescue Visla Dog, i have always wanted a dog. |

I'm Currently Feeling: | These are my two cats. They are both spoiled rotten!! The black one's name is Jinx (he's almost 2 years old now) and the calico's name is Gypsy (about 10 months old now)! As much as we love these two fur babies I can't imagine having another one  These two are enough work!! |

I'm Currently Feeling: | We have 2 furbabies - 2 adorable kitties. I have to get some pics to put up...my avatar, even though it isn't my cat, look remarkably like one of them (Bitty). One is Bitty (short for Itty Bitty Kitty - DH's cat, about 14 years old, so DH was 15 when he got him and named him!  ). My cat is about 7 years old and named Rena (short for Serena). We love them like they are babies! My DH is so well trained he carries Bitty upstairs nearly every night to bed! Bitty does this little "mrrr" and head bob and up the stairs they go! If either of them wants a pet, they get it. Treats not so much because Rena won't eat them and Bitty is a pig and eats them all himself and is a little too fat...  |

I'm Currently Feeling: | Wow, what lovely pics. I love animals. We have 5 cats who all sleep in the bed with us, (well actually they sleep, we dont!)
We would have a lot more if we had the room. We've always said that once we win the lottery, we will buy a farm. Not a working farm, but a place to take in rescue animals. We'd never rehome them again after though cos i'd never be able to part with them. |

| You all have beautiful pets!
FJL - Kudos for rescuing all of those lovely beasties, if only there were more people like you around.
You will probably all hate my babies but I'm going to post a few of them anyhow. I have 63 right now.
This is Pigwidgeon, he's really sweet, he recently matured though so I have to find him a date. He bit my husband but I'm sure it wasn't his fault, hubby was ticking him off.
This is Pie, she's very fuzzy. She is also really sweet.
This is Carmello, she is a tad grumpy, she likes to flick hairs at me.
This is Charlotte, she is my sweety. I've had her the longest, she is so docile I could pick her up and put her in my pocket.
This is Hedwig, she has tons of personality.
This is Suite Judy Blue Eyes, she is a very pretty girl.
One more, this is Fleet, she is the jewel of my collection, if only I could find her a date.
I also have two kitties, they are also my babies. Though they are alot more annoying and destructive than my tarantulas, who are very well behaved!
This is Cleo,
And this is Dog Food (we call him Puppy more often though)
Wow, that was alot of pictures, sorry! |

I'm Currently Feeling: | I was going to say the same thing Suz  but didn't wanna sound rude
I do agree that the spiders are probably A LOT better behaved than the cats though, my two cats are little destructive machines |
