dg: Yeah, I know what you mean. In the beggining we had 1 cat (male) named Quincy (his real name translates to "Yellowy", on account of him being orange-white). Then he brought home a stray female, Rork, and we took her in. Then they started making babies, at a rate of two litters (that is the correct term, right?) per year, each producing 4-6 kittens. Then he (our orignal cat) also started making babies with the female kittens, once they grew up, so then we had 2 females each giving birth 2 times a year. Rork, the stray we took in at the beggining, gave birth twice, while one of her daughters, Taz, gave birth once. At that point, Rork went missing, sadly never to return. Her kittens were still small, so we had to bottle-feed them (very annoying and very endearing at the same time). We then had about 13 kittens + Quincy + Taz and some of her siblings all in the house at once (we lived in a big house at the time, so it was OK). We had to give all the kittens away unfortunately, cause it was getting quite expensive, and neuter Taz, which is the only one we kept. Oh, did I mention she also disappeared for about 3 months at one point, and it was only by chance that we found her in the humane society. Apparently, they had only found her recently, so she had been wandering a while.

Now we have Quincy (aka Godfather, cause he acts like he's the king, which he is...we all have to be very respectful and so forth hehe) and Taz (named after the Tasmanian Devil).

Having so many kittens was awesome, especially considering we had two seperate batches being born very close together, so there were 12-13 baby kittens at once. Frankly, we were running out of names. ;) ;)

One of the kittens I mentioned was actually named Nosferatu, cause he was all black. I also remember him being one of the smellier ones.

I have a cat, and he is awesome, mainly because he's a Maine Coon and thus is capable of eating other people's pets.

No, seriously. Those buggers are huge.

There's also a stray cat we've kinda adopted, unofficially. Her name is White Cat, because my family is basically unimaginative at heart. Sly (our cat) likes to act like a pimp and a player, alternately cuddling up with and then smacking around poor old White Cat.

It's quite sad, really, because he's a eunuch. Poor bastard.

We got a cat. We always had. The first one died at the age of 16, the second one was hit by a car at the age of 2, and the third one has survived its car accident. Though it lost its forward teeth, thus the tongue hangs out of the mouth from time to time. Looks rather dumb. It'll be 4 years soon, many more to come.
Cats are my favourite, have always been. But we also got a dog, a german shepherd, currently aged 3-or-so. His predecessor, a long haired german shepherd, died of leukaemia at the age of 7.

Long story cut short : I won't want to miss cats around me. Dogs...well, I can't do a lot against it right now.

Musashi , my black ninja cat. Likes to stay in dark shadowing places and jumps at some unsuspecting person's ankle every chance he gets.

I used to have 2 ostridges...  They were really cool.  The best time was when the male got loose and ran down the highway.  Quite a sight that was.

Sadly they froze to death about 2 years ago.  :(

1 cat, Jinx by name, he weighs about 10-12 pounds and is orange and white.  Him I can pet, that's right, he's a non-castrated tom, oddly enough.  I have two others, Sparky and The Momma Cat.  Sparky is fluffy, solid grey(but she's not a long-hair, with green eyes.  The Momma Cat is a tigery type cat, both Sparky and The Momma Cat are barn cats, they'll sit around and look at you but if you make a move anywhere in their general direction they jump like an electric spark(hence Sparky).  I classify them as pets because they do hang around and we feed them.

Many names, but always me.

There are only 10 types of people in the world , those that understand binary and those that don't.

 
Cat, name Joy. Likes to hump my arm when i´m sitting at the desk...
He´s not castrated, i think doing that to animals is the pinnacle of cruelty. Imagine someone doing it to you!

Dog, named Rex. Basicly a mutt, short legs, long fur, brown redish colour. Looks like a mix between a Labrador and a sausage dog. He only ever barks or defends the house when we are looking. If he´s alone, he lets all the cats in the neighbourhood invade our backyard and eat my cat´s food, the little rascalls...
:p

I´ve had cats and dogs all my life. I once had a dog that hung himself, when he jumped a fence and was left hanging by the leach... When i found him, i was traumatized for a week.
His name was Dick! I guess it fits, because he was a dick, for doing that stupid stunt...
:D
No Freespace 3 ?!? Oh, bugger...

I have no pets, for they serve no purpose.

On the other hand, I love my cousin's pair of Bald Pythons.  There's just something about a barely domesticated killing machine...
