I will start with my most spoiled of them all, my dog, Dameous. My boyfriend and I picked him out a year and a half ago at a shelter when he was six weeks old. We aren't positive what type of dog he is although my guess would be a Basenji mix and most people suggest Shepherd. Whatever he is, he is a very smart dog and has an amazingly calm temper. Here's a picture of him so you can take your own guess at what kind of dog he is.
I also have a twelve year old cat that we call Cleo. Her name is actually Cleocatra and I was ten I thought it was extremely clever; now it is just odd.
I live at home still, so I will include my Mom's cat which is a tortie point Himalayan. Or in other words, a walking fuzz ball. We call her Gracie; her full name is Amazing Grace.
I have two guinea pigs. One guinea pig has long hair with a cowlick on top of her head which is the reason I named her Divet. Her sister, a biter, is named Nippy.
Along with them I have a fat, grey, teddy bear hamster named Hammy.
I also have a three year old turtle, a red-eared slider, named Franklin. When I bought him he was the size of a quarter. I had no idea that within a couple years his shell would be closer to a foot in length.
My boyfriend and I have two ferrets, Bandit and Outlaw, that stay at his house. They have two sides, they either want to cuddle up with you, each other, or the dog, or they want to steal everything in sight from your keys to your shoelaces. I have included a picture of them as well.
My black and white rat, Luna, stays there as well due to my Mom's fear of mice and rats. She is very calm and would happily sit in your lap all day, but something about the tail just freaks people out.
My boyfriend also takes care of the calico cat, Lucy, that I got my Great Grandma years ago. We definitely have our hands full, but the joy from the animals is more than worth it.
