All of them??
When the girls were in Elementary they asked who had pets. Half of the children had no pets, we had half the pets. Over the years we have had...
Five dogs, plus four guests, one of which stayed about two years. A half or dozen cats. An old Chinchillla retired from school. Two rabbits. Several rats. several dozen dwarf hampsters (was originally susposed two be both females!) A pair of parakeets. A cockatiel that literally flew one very windy day, and refused to ever fly again. An old large king snake, a couple of small garter snakes, and it's babies. (they were cute tiny snorkels popping their heads up from the bedding.) The food for the snakes were mice and goldfish were not counted as pets. A few mice, one was small enough to slip through a ring, GusGus got stuck in a vaccuum hose (who? me?) A old tarantula. A pair of Madagascar Hissing Cockroaches (naturally one of each!) that had several dozens. ("daddy, why do the roaches never hiss at you?" "Because they know that I know where the is Raid."
