Do you have pets?

Inspired by this thread.

Tell us all about your finest animal friends. ;D

My cat died last year (peacefully, thankfully). She was ~22, so had a great run. I miss her a lot.

No immediate plans for another animal friend, but medium term, I definitely want to have a kitten friend. :) Or perhaps even a puppy!

RIP to your cat <3

I have one beautiful 10 year old Maltese dog, her name is Phoebe :)

She's the only pet I've ever had & she's the best

I'm interested in owning a cat since I've only had a dog of course, and maybe another dog as well

I think I'll adopt my next pet though since there are lots of great animals who need homes

I have a pet peachface lovebird at home! (By the name of Pixie haha)
Been around since I was in year 5 and has out-lived all the other birds we've had over the years. ;D

Why are they named lovebirds?

Spitting image hahaha!

Tbh I actually have no clue why they're called that! :)

I'd also ask where the "peachface" part of the name comes from, but, well - y'know. Haha.

After several years of begging my parents, I finally got a cat in year 9.

We loved him so much that in year 10 we had to get another one.

So now we have two Ragdoll cats :)

I have a dog named Bella (so mainstream) who my mum feeds way too much and so she essentially wobbles everywhere. She is also the fussiest eater - No joke, besides occasional miracles, she only eats roast chicken for dinner and it HAS to be from Woolworths, not Coles. She can taste the difference...

Are the Woolworths and Coles products actually the same?

I used to have two budgies + a cat. All sadly deceased now. Haven't had pets for a good 5 years now... it'll take me a while to get another :)

omg actually same to the fussy dog part. Joni pretty much only has roast chicken for dinner too and always leaves the veggies (but will eat veggies if it comes off our plate!) She had sushi for dinner yesterday though. Yes my dad specially made sushi for her. Not spoilt at all.

We also have a guinea pig named James, used to have another called Peeta but he died early March :(
