We were talking about pets in another topic, and it would be an off topic if we wanted to talk there about pets...
So I searched the general forums to bring the discussion into the Pets topic, but surprisingly I found no Pets topic.. How would it possible to have Jonas in the forum and have no Pets topics..
Anyway.. In case my search wasn't deep and there is a Pets topic here, lock here and we discuss about it in the topic.. And if no, lets talk about Pets here.. Some people have pets, some people (like me) want to own a pet and both groups may need some tips for taking care or buying tips..
So all come here and discuss..

Yay pets! I would never be a vet (student), if I didn't love them Currently I am co-living (not owning) a 10 year old awesome cat, named Bili (spelled as Billy). She's been with me ever since she was born (sadly, her mother, awesome cat named Liza died a 7 years ago... may she rest in peace) and I love that fluffly kitten She's my pal, my companion, my minion, and as you can see in my profile pic, my sidekick

And well, she's so krieh XD

@Fat & Sassy! : Lol she is a lot of work, you can have her.. I'm sure she'll go with anyone that can scratch her body , and anyone who would pet her the whole day lol non-stop


Since when is petting a dog hard work? If constant attention is the worst this dog needs, then I'd take her. ;P

(As some of you already may know) I sssssoooooo want a pet ferret. I actually ferret-sit for a friend, but don't actually own one. :'( I think it's fascinating how energetic and curious they are. They could be in the same room they have been in for DAYS, but always go on adventures around the room exploring and shit. I love it when it loots my stuff. She always finds new things to horde. Uuuuugggghhhhh... I want oooonnnneeeee!!! :O

Ferrets are great. We have six at the falconry centre and they're little bundles of joy.


Is keeping ferrets as pets legal in your countries? Are they freely sold in pet shops?

In some states it is illegal to own a ferret, but not all. This is mainly because they eat important crops and stuff. Discrimination if you ask me... >:(

LOL ferret-sit
if you do get a ferret once, promise you'll strap a miniature radio-controlled bazooka to its back.


@Baz i saw some ferrets in a pet shop once, they just look like the meanest little rascals ever.

Yeah, if you own a ferret where it is legal and then move to a place where they are illegal to own, I'm pretty sure they can take them from you.

Need to post some pictures in the near future I think.
We've got 2 cats: 1 "Sphynx": that's a weird hairless creature that almost act like a person and 1 "Cornish Rex": that's an almost hairless curly little bastard with a ratt's tale.
Will post some pictures.
We had Chinchillas, fish, chickens, a pig, birds and a lot of rabbits but they are all gone now.
We also had a "British Shorthair" cat and a Persian cat.
Btw the names of our cats are "Spocky" for the Sphynx cause of his ears, and "Biebel" for the other bastard.

I have a dog. His name is Sam. The breed? Well, no particular one tbh. Both his parents are/were mixes. His mommy is rottie/dogue de bordeaux and his daddy was central asian s./pittie. So, I think he's kind of unique. The only problem with there being so many breeds there is that people keep asking me what kind of a dog is he. So I have to repeat it all the time. Sometimes, I try saying that he's a mix, but then they ask but what kiiiiiiind. I don't know why I just got tired of repeating it all the time.

As for wishes. i'd like to have an american staffie again - I grew up with one, or a staffordshire bull terrier, or a pit bull. I love pit bulls. Oh! And I like Pekingese dogs and pekingese mixes. Basically, I just like dogs. Whichever dog would be fine tbh.

Also. I REALLY want a cat. I like Maine Coon cats. But any cat would be totally fine with me. I've never had one.
And a lizard of some kind.

As for my dog. Just like my late staffie. He's pretty calm and cool. He likes taking walks but if I don't take him anywhere, he's fine with that, too. He adjusts to whatever. My dad actually just gave him to me. I didn't even choose him myself. It was just basically like 'sup.here's a dog.YOU WANTED ONE, DIDN'T YOU? XD
He's 55 kilos, now. I thought I'd have a harder time with him since he's so big. But I don't. I guess. He's all you could ask from a dog.

My wishes aside. If I ever have another dog. I'll probably just adopt one. Stupid people dump animals all the time so I can't imagine buying. I'd rather save one.

Any advertisements regarding anything related to pets is now illegal.
No, it has nothing to do with dangerous/wild/exotic animals or anything...It's pure insanity, it's about ordinary domesticaed pets (mainly cats and dogs)...You may like to know why: Because it's against Islam and a symbol of wertern societies...

I want a puppy but can't have one yet so instead i've got a Siamese fighting fish.. I think they make great pets and they are very easy to keep. According to alot of people, they last for 4 years depending on how well you look after it.

I also wouldn't mind a pet python.

Used to have a several fish...8 of them. But then they got boring and it was hard work, so I just ate them. Well not really, I moved and it was just too much of a hassle to move the tank and all that, so I gave the fish to the pet store that I got them from.

Before that, I used to have 2 birds as a kid. They were budgies, and although they were noisy, they were a lot of fun. And they used to fly to me mainly when me and my family would eat dinner. Luckily they didn't poop in my food. Eventually they both died. But they were good pets.
