    I see from the poll there are more cat owners than dog owners. I`m wondering if it`s true, that there are distinct `cat` and `dog` people, who prefer one over the other. I definately prefer dogs even though I have cats.
    Or is it because, if you work and are busy, cats are easier to care for than dogs?

    I've had a few dogs, a Alsation, Staffies, most recently Amstaffs and one Pitbull. Also grew up on a small farm with other animals, not really pets though. My dogs were all "problem" animals I rehomed.

    There are no bad dogs, just bad owners.

    Now I only have a cat. I can say I like both. Cats are definately lower maintenance, but don't have as much character and wont guard your house.

    I have always wanted a dog, but I never had the chance . I'm a cat person, but I love all animals (except perhaps snakes and spiders !), and would love to have a dog .

    We have Rip, a Jack Russell registered as "Harcourt Drifter," and a Fox Terrier - also thoroughbred, but unregistered, called "Foxie-5," being my fifth Foxie since 1976.

    Rip will be 16 in April and is now only a shadow of his former self, but what can you expect at nearly 112 in human terms? He is old and grey, but still in reasonable health, and no, we will not have him put down unless absolutely necessary. He used to be known as "Bum, balls, belly, bad-tempered biting bedonnerde brak," because for no apparent reason he would suddenly attack Foxie, but all that spunk has now blown out of th window, and he - like his "Daddy" (Mr. G.) likes to spend most of the day sleeping.

    Foxie is still farily spunky, will be 15 next month, and he - like his Foxie peers - was an excellent mole-catcher in his day. Also slowed down now, but it was fascinating to watch him as he would sniff the apparently undisturbed section of lawn, then suddenly begin digging furiously and comeup with a mole! And the pair of them are probably THE most spoiled brats this side of Kingdom Come - I always say thatif there IS such a thing as reincarnation, then in my next life I want to come back as a dog in MY household! Fact is, the more I come into contact with humanity, the more I love my dogs.

    Would love to also keep a cat or two, but this pair made it QUITE clear - NO CATS ALLOWED ON OUR TURF!!!

    Here they were watching Daddy who was working in the garden underneath the nets...

    My pets are Mosley, the English bulldog, and Schopenhauer, the basset hound. They'll be joined by a real dog sometime next year.

    Pictured in the second picture next to Mosley and Schopenhauer is Pink Monkey, the pink monkey.

    Although I'm not sure if he's a pet as much as he is some kind of demonic poltergeist. I first spied him in a tree outside my building, the next day he was on the ground outside the entrance. Over the following days he made his way into the building's lobby, then the elevator, and then the third floor landing. At that point I got the idea and took him home. Rather that than wake up one night and see him floating above my bed.

    Default Our pets and other wild creatures

    I'm not sure if there is a thread of this nature - I endeavoured to look for one - but I thought I'd give it a go anyway. All are welcome to post pics of their favourites.

    I love animals and we have a few pets in our place and I would like to share who ours are.

    1)

    My daughter's idea of dressing Archie up!

    2)

    Our madam Piper hid in the cupboard when the mercury level hit 35 C

    3)

    Our old pooch Pearl. She's 13 now, survived a malignant tumour on one of her legs and still going strong - although she's a bit deaf and cranky! Still loveable.

    4)

    This beautiful male King Parrot just flew into our yard, and I decided to offer him some seed. I hope to handfeed him and his family who also came in.

    Cheers and Was Hael!

    Love the dog! I do love dogs. There`s a pic of my ancient Border Collie (being washed, which she only just tolerates) in my avatar. She suffers a bit in cold weather with arthritis but still bounces around like a pup.
    I also keep goats, geese, hens and ducks and have a couple of evil cats. All cats are evil imo. They are the true overlords of the world. And they know it...

    My dog "Beest" (in English; "Animal" or "Beast")... He's an 11 years old full-breed American Staffordshire Terriër with a body weight of 38 Kg.

    Him I consider to be my best friend ever...
