1. What's your favorite animal?
I honestly can't choose "just one" favorite animal. Large cats [leopards, leopard, tigers, ocelots] house cats, huskies, wolves, dolphins, horses, monkeys, foxes... the list goes on and on.
2. What pets have you had in your lifetime?
Four budgies, two when I was very young named Angela and Lancie. Two when I was in university, sadly I cannot recall their names. One very large dog named Bear, he along with a cat named Griffon were one of my previous flatmates pets. A cat named Pho-phon and another named Swan when I was younger. Two caterpillars, various silkworms, ladybugs and a millipede. We currently live with 3 cats, two that belong to our flatmate, and a rather frisky one that belongs to us along with 6 fishes [soon to be 10] in an aquarium.
3. Is there any specific pet that you've wanted but never had? Why?
Oh. I would love to get a chameleon but we have no space for one right now. I would also love to have a python but do not think I could feed it live mouse, hence the reason aside from the cats that we haven't gotten one. One day I would also like to adopt a Husky or Samoyed. The only factor that has stopped me from adopting a dog is that we do not live in an area where they would have space to run and play. Have also considered getting a horse and ferrets. Would also love to be able to work with rescue workers and become a foster parent for injured animals. In short I foresee a farmhouse in the not so distant future, as it is the only place where I can see us being able to house all these animals.
4. Are you allergic to any animals?
I am mildly allergic to full grown cats and dogs. I can't play with them and then go rub my eyes. A scratchy sensation ensues and last for hours. I am allergic to kittens, something about them makes me sneezey and teary eyed.
5. Do you have any 'pet' pet peeves (your pets or others')?
Cat pee and other unmentionables in bed. [They were a little upset that our flatmate left them a lone for a week] Cold cat puke in front of door strategically placed so that you step in it when you wake up, cat puke on sofa, scratched dresser and shelving units, stinky cat bum placed in front of face as a means for getting attention. People, who lock their pets up in small cages, leave then alone in small apartment for hours/days. People who leave the pets in cars on hot summer days without a window cracked open. People who bring their pets over and don't do anything while they tear up your furniture.
