6. the menagerie is growing daily ...
4 parrots

3 golden retrievers

2 rescue dogs (Joanne's pets) as soon as a pen is built in my backyard

1 very old cat (who needs love while his people are traveling for the next 6 weeks) then Tiggy will have 2 homes ... cause he will go home and back here again ... as long as necessary

12. The oldest recorded (verified) cat
Edited on Wed Sep-07-05 06:37 PM by China_cat
was a Devon Rex who was almost 35 when he died.

Keeping them as strictly indoor cats has its advantages.

19. Billie lived to be 18.
She was a Persian who was pure love, not a mean bone in her body. I thought that she was old.

4. aw, that's so SWEET!
When I was a kid, I had both a cat and a parakeet for awhile. At first, the cat would try to eat the parakeet, but after a short time the cat just learned to ignore the bird.

21. the cat and I will both benefit ...
a win/win situation if there ever was one

Tiggy has lived with a parrot before AND Tiggy is afraid of parrots so I don't anticipate any problems from the cat.

:loveya:

18. I'm so sure that I must have lost my mind, my memory is getting bad ......
but IF I look around it might still be here somewhere ...

What

I'm having trouble hearing you over the barking, squawking, meowing and grumbling of one of my house mates ... about the menagerie.

3 kids, 2 cats, 1 dog sounds like a full-house to me ...
