Growing up on a farm back home in Portugal I was always exposed to many animals. We had chickens, rabbits, goats, pigs, cats and dogs. Now living in Canada I cannot have as many pets but I can still enjoy having some.
I currently have two cats with five new acquisitions, a dog and a fish.
My son changes the names on the cats almost on a daily basis so it's hard to keep track of their names … don't ask me I don't know what they are today. The kittens are just a week old and it's always an amazing experience with the cat having the kittens, one was breach but managed to be perfectly fine. The kittens are now starting to open their eyes and have their own little personality… pretty soon they will be running around the house and driving me crazy! It will be time soon to start finding homes for the little one's.
My dog Leah is a black Lab very friendly but still a little to crazy for a three and a half year old puppy, but we love her. I always wonder when she will settle down…. stop eating the furniture and so on.
We had a hampster "Speedy" she was so cute and friendly I use to put her in her ball and the dog would roll her around the house… not for long or the hampster would get very dizzy. Speedy passed away a year and half ago and we decided to try our luck with a Hermet crab … not such a good idea… it only lived a week.
My son would love to get a lizard but there is just no way, I would not like to hold or feed it. I could handle it being vegetarian but other than that it's a big no. It would remind me too much of Fear Factor and the bugs.
One day I would like to have a Monkey .. I don't know what I would call him, but I sure think they are cute .. I would dress him in a suit like the one on my company logo… they are just so adorable. You should check them out. My Monkey's are Sales Lead Monkeys, pretty smart they are.
Pets are a lot of work but bring joy to your life and can keep you company when you are alone.
