We have the dogs, and cats but we also have 2 stick insects. Dont tend to write much about them coz there's not much to say! lol They are pretty straight forward to care for, handle, and feed etc. They are called Lector (short for hannibal lector - he accidently ate another one's leg by mistake...) and Jinxi (so called coz it was his leg which was eaten!) lol
We did have four, but unfortunately two passed away. :-( The other two were called Wingo and Speedy.

mckenzie (kenzo) was my marmoset monkey and he was my world couldnt get a more loving and fun friend he was beyond perfect. he wouldda been 1 this october 21st.
tamba is my female russian dwarf hamster and she is a white colour with grey ears and grey stripe. gorgeous fiesty little girl is a year old
and ricco is my male russian dwarf hamster (housed seperatly ) as ricco was a rescue and only has 3 legs he is almost 3 years old and im not sure how much life is left i him but he is still very active and lovable but he is loosing some fur and can be a little grumpy old man but i love him all the same i will post pics when i go upstairs to the other laptop with my pics on

Hi kitty
I love rodents too, I love all animals. But my snakes still need feeding lol. At the end of the day the rats that I feed to my snakes is just meat but just in its full form. They are already dead when you buy them.
After all, we feed our dogs & cats meat.
Hope you get your snake one day. They are amazing creatures. I've been keeping snakes for over 13 yrs now & still find them fascinating.

yeh maybe i wrote that a little wrong lol what i mean is i keep rodents so feeding them to another animal even if dead or not id keep thinking of my pet rodents lol im too soppy lol. do all snakes besides the egg eating snake have to eat rodents yeh? i went to get a garter that loads of vets and stuff told me they can eat garter grub but when i went to buy him i was told they do need mice so i ended up not getting him.i do hope one day i can do it coz ive always loved them if i cant own them maybe i can find somewhere i can help out (but not feed them) LOL thinking on the future of course right now wouldnt be a good time to bring a snake home my mum may kill me. i did have permission for one as long as it didnt eat furries lol damn i cant win this one now lol

Lol kitty.
Maybe you should wait til you leave home to get your snake. I really thought I would have a problem with feeding my snakes cos of my love of ALL animals, but you'll be surprised how quickly you get used to it. Feeding just comes natural now.
By the way.......call me Dee

hi,
i love hearing about peoples pets :-)
we have
1 lurcher, jack 17-ish years old
2 collies, rex who will be 6 next march 27th and Mab who will be 1 on august 10th
1 cat, pyewhackett who is almost 5 (we had 2 cats but lost Snaggs just over a week ago, he was almost 12)
1 bosc, Haga 18months
1 beardie, Nori 2&1/2
1 leopard gecko, Rikku 9 months
1 cali king snake, Bo 6-ish
2 corns, Snake 18 months & Summer 2

1 goldfish, goldie 1 redcap, red head and 1 black goldfish?? called no heart
1 european mantis, slicer
i think thats it for now :-) my daughter turns 15 in 2 weeks and wants a monkey but we've told her it wouldnt be fair on one at the minute so she is happy to wait till she is older. its a pet that neither me or her dad have ever owned so we need to do ALOT of research before even considering getting one. Kitty, you had a marmoset didnt you, Kenzo, can you tell me anything about what they are like to keep as pets and what sort of enviroment they need? we still wont be getting her one for a couple of years but it would be nice to hear about Kenzo and how to care for monkeys :-) feel free to start a new thread if you have to, i feel abit guilty for going off sideways on this one :-)

your daughter would deffo need to finish school because they take up 24hours of ya day lol everyone told me it would be hard work but tbh i enjoyed every minute of it even cleaning him out because he would jump all over me . i have never owned a better pet well i say that but he owned me lol. it is like having a baby in the house but theyre much smaller and like over hyperactive jelly beans lol what is it you want to know? you could start a new thread to ask and then i can answer there. im not an expert and every monkey owner will give you different answers. before i got kenzo i asked alot about them when i visited zoos. and got in contact with other monkey owners to find out what there opinion is and am
n exotic vet can give you quite a few answers all i can say right now though is be VERY careful what you put in the cage

I use to have a syrian Hamster called albert he was my first proper pet for me to take care of myself. He died end of january in my hands not the niceest of things he outlived 2 rats i had they were 1year and six months albert was 2years and about 6 months he live d a very long life. Personally wouldn't have another hamster again. But did enjoy having my albert.
