    We have also had a hog nose snake! I will have to ask my husband what type of hognose it was. We have also had ring neck snakes, and some other kind of kingsnakes. I'll have to ask my husband what they were exactly. We had 4 collared lizards, but we dontaed them to a children's center a few months ago. Other than that, just the typical pets - dogs and cats!

    My late husband, Sonny, had a pet tarantula (spelling?) named Eloise. It used to give me the creeps! :hair: :eekblue: I detest spiders, yet I don't know why? I can only guess maybe when I was a very young child, maybe I had a bad experience with spiders. Who knows?

    Might have something to do with the number of spiders a human eats, throughout their lifetime, in their sleep.

    Nummers!

    And before someone gets out their Holy Hand Grenade of Antioch and starts beating me about the head and shoulders with "Right Speech"... this is just an urban legend.

    Geckos are so cute! My biology teacher used to have a bunch of them...I think they've all escaped to the math hallway by now... :eek2: She also has a pet garden snake named Salazar...hahaha...

    [/Harry Potter reference]

    Anyway. I've had countless cats, because I take in every one I see in my neighborhood - unfortunately, I guess some families around here don't want to take proper care of them :( Right now, I've only got one "official" housecat, Neko. She's really...furry...as in, when she attacks someone, there's always a puff of fur along with it.

    He thinks he's a dog and that I make him a new bed every day. The fact is they're meditation mats and he's not a real dog. I haven't the heart to tell him though. Plus, it's funny watching him trying to sit on a Zafu.

    Cute looking doggy.

    I'd love to get a greyhound mix - especially one of those little versions of greyhounds - I just can't take the potty training...
