Do you remember when you got your first pet(s), what did you get and what did you name it? What pet(s) do you have now that you're older? :fish::fish:

My first pet was a Cockapoo named velvet, but I can hardly remember her. The dog I grew up with was a chihuahua mix named Pepper. :)Now, we have Keesha (Border Collie mix), Pepsi (Lab/Doberman mix) and Miss Sally the hamster. My son is also lobbying hard for a cat, which we can't have because of the dogs, but I might let him get a lizard or turtle. :)

oh my! we had two doggies when i was little, but i just remember them already existing and they were named Bixby and Lady Buffington, but we just called her Buffy. Then we got a siamese kitty named Purrpuss. Then a cat named Magi, and she was the sweetest. Now we have Kitty (thats her name) and my two boys! Oscar and Holden! they are my buddies and my most favorites!
When I was little we had a collie named Tippy. Then I had a cockapoo named White Boy. He lived for 16 years and was my constant companion. Over the years we had assorted gerbils who invariably crawled into the heater vents and died. Now we have a bassett/german shepherd mix named Lady Byng. She's the sweetest thing. She's a senior citizen now, but still kickin'.

My sister and I wond goldfish at the county fair. I named mine Blackfin because he had black splotches on his fins. My sister named hers Fred. Fred died the next day, but Blackfin was around for three year, despite my parents being cheap and keeping him in a cut down 3 liter bottle instead of a real fishbowl.:fish:As for now...We're going to get some cats (and maybe a puppy?)... we just have to move to apartments that allow pets first.
I had a dog named Lady that was part cocker spaniel part poodle and part something else lol. We had her from when I was 2 until I was 17 - she was my shadow and like my best friend. I still miss her sometimes :(.I also remember two cats, salt & pepper from when I was really little and then two little dogs, can't remember for sure what kind they were and I think their names were Poncho and Chi Chi or something like that.As for now, I have one male zebra finch named Zorro and my boyfriend and I want to get a dog or dog(s) at some point after we're married and have a house. But for now we can't have any dogs in either of the apartments :p.
Zippy, the Chihuahua was first. Then Daisy, a cocker spaniel. Then Scarlet, the Boxer. After Scarlet came Elsinor - a shepherd/collie. Then it was Desiree, a ridgeback/shepherd. All died of old age. Now we have Patch, a border collie/Plotthound, 5 cats - Mama Kitty, Yo Yo (siamese), Cubby, Spike and Leo. And 2 Quarter Horses, Brio and Remy. And right now there are 30 wild turkeys living in my back yard and roosting on my deck. If they're here almost all of the time do they count as pets?

My first pets that were mine and not the family's were 2 parakeets that my 2nd grade teacher gave me for my birthday. I don't remember their names. Now, I have 3 dogs (shepherd/husky mix, terrier mix, and a border collie), a siamese mix cat, and a blue and gold macaw that my parents bought when I was 8, and my mom gave him to me a couple of years ago. He's 27 years old now. Oh, and my cat just brought home a stray tabby cat, so I'm trying to coax him into sticking around, so we may have 2 cats soon.
