QotD: All My Pets

How many pets have you owned in your lifetime? Tell us about them.

Maybe 50+? :)

We still have these two dogs in the photos - Max (Rough Collie) is at home with my dad, and Sydney (Bichon Frisé) is being cared for by my grams and uncle. Hopefully when we're more settled here in Melbourne, we can bring Max over. I'm not sure what would be the go with Syd though - I think it's cruel to seperate her from my grams if she's used to living there, and disrupt her life needlessly.

My sister and I also had 5 hamsters as pets in our lifetime, and I was crazy about them. How I wish the silly Australian Quarentine Office would let hamsters in the country. We also had way too many goldfish. The rough estimate would be around 40+, I'm guessing. My bedroom balcony at our old apartment unit ended up housing the fish tank. The fish tank took up the length of the tiny space (all of 2 metres worth). When we moved out of the apartment unit to a terrace house, we'd had already given the fish away to an uncle, but we then did some landscaping in the garden and had a pond, so more goldfish came to live with us again.
