So I am curious of your pet life
. I am currently a professional hamster breeder and caretaker, professional mouse caretaker even though I no longer had them, Hermit crab, dog, cat, tortoise, GloFish, Goldfish, Snail, Land Snail, Minnow and Beta. So when I was in kindergarden, we had three family dogs. Stormy, a golden weimeriner, (April 4, 1996-----March 21, 2010. RIP) Sophie, a grey Shcnauzer (July 1, 2002----December 25, 2012) and a shih-tzu Stella (May,2 2005-----ALIVE) and a pond full of 18 year old koi fish. So, my sister had two guinea pigs, (who ended up having babies even though they were sold as both female) and a beta fish, bubbles. I was jelous that she was able to have 7 pets. (I counted the babies as hers even though she sold them because I wanted to win the battle
) and I had 0. (The dogs were "family pets") So, my mom said: "Lets start you out small." So we went to the pet store and I picked out a red beta. I named him Freddy after my uncles gecko i loved so much. So, I fed Freddy 3 food pellets a day, and mom did weekly water changes. So my mom gave away my sisters guinea pigs to the neighbors, and they died two years later, and my sisters beta died after she owned it for 2 years. So my beta then died after 1 1/2 years. I cried and cried, and as a first grader I was over it by dinner.
. So, I forgot to mention, before Freddy, Before the guinea pigs, and before the other beta we got two rabbits Remmie and Fluffy. So in 1st grader they are currently alive at the age of 5. Fluffy was a netherland dwarf and remmie was a floppy earred or whatever you call them. The 2nd grade mom gets me a gold fish, it died after a week, and we put down Stormy because she became paralysed one day and was throwing up, couldnt hold her bladder, and a bunch of other sad stuff. If your against putting down dogs don't lecture me please. (I'd rather take a dog out of its misery then pet it as its in pain. We stayed with her till the end.) So 3rd grade, I get my first hermit crab, Hermy. He lived in a 1 gallon. So, he actually didnt die. He lived in torture for a year, then about 6 months later I got another grade and combined the two 1 gallons with a cut I cut in half. So the two crabs lived in a 2 gallon. I named number two shelly. Then 4th grade we put down sophie on christmas day
. I then purchased a 10 gallon tank for the crabbies and bought a 3rd crab.They were finally happy c:. Hermy died in 5th grade. the other two remain today. Then later on in 5th grade my pond was struck by lightning and the 20 year old koi passed. We are buying more the summer. After two years... So, 5th grade started my animal obbsession. Bought two robo hamsters, Einstein and Caprenicas, I then bought a syrian hamster, Cinnamon (Note, they all lived seperate so yes i know there solitary) Then my parents divorced and I got a tibetan mastiff, Izzy (January 7, 2011-----) And when my parents seperated I got tortoises, and mice, and more hamsters. After researching breeding for two years I bred two russian hamsters WHO I KNOW WERENT RELATED! And they had babies. After six months they had more. That will be there last litter. So my mice died.... I dont know how. I had 3 in a 20 gallon. Idk... So today I got the two dogs. 5 hamsters, and as a matter of fact my female breeder died at almost a year old and she still had 4 kids with me that will find new homes soon. (They were born nov 17, there are already grown up and were independant when she passed.) Today I have a 40 gallon with 11 crabs. 75% of them are small, so its not crowded. two hamsters, all of there cages are more than 365 square inches, two tortoiuses currently in there 55 gallon winter enclousour, in the summer they live outside. I still have the two dogs, two cats, and two fish tanks. Thats all guys, BYE MERRY CHRISTMAS! PS i wouldve posted this on pictures w/ pics of my animals just, idk how to do it from phone and camera to computer.... no need for a tutorial
Just the basic 10 gallon set up with 2 crabs, plus a 55 gallon at my dad's.

The only thing holding me back from expanding my 'zoo' is the constant threat of divorce from my hubby. LOL.
