Oh boy, I could write a book on the pets we have had.
I love them all and can't imagine life without at least a couple of animals running around my abode.
We have had ferrets for the past 4 years and I never knew what amazingly fun pets they could be. Our sweet boy Murphey died of cancer a little over a year ago but we still have his girlfriend, Hershey. She is just a bundle of love. She has the run of the house for at least 4-6 hours each day and now that it's getting chilly we never know what cozy spot we'll find her in.
Most recently we adopted two male rats. My oldest has been wanting a pair for a while now, so as a reward for making positive choices in her life, we adopted two...and they are, um, interesting! One is a dumbo ear and the other is a fancy. They get a little crazy and make pretty big messes, but they sure are friendly!
