Welcome to another Poll by me! Wow, I must be insane once again!
This poll will be about...your pets and other junk as usual! We'll be adding some spice in here so it doesn't get closed for being overused (I believe). Please do not reply if you have never had and don't have pet. That is stupid and a waste of time. This means if you've had a pet, you can still reply.
1. How many pet(s) (a pet can be anything that you consider yours that is alive and moves *I hope* This does not include the bugs outside your window) do you have, what kind is it (cat, Lab, angelfish, etc.), and what is/are his/her/their names?
2. Where did you receive/find/get this pet and why did you keep him/her?
3. How long have you had your pet(s)?
4. What other pet(s) have you had in the past?
5. Have you ever been to a Humane Society, Animal Shelter, or the Pound to adopt a Pet before?
6. What is the funniest thing you've ever heard that a pet has done?
7. What was the weirdest pet your parents had growing up (if they had any)?

1. I have four at the moment. I have two cats, one is a calico/siamese with half a black face and half a cream face and light blue eyes named Lilly-Mae while the other that I brought home yesterday (^-^) is part orange tiger cat and part long haired-black with a diamond shaped patch of the orange tiger cat fur on her face and one cream coloured paw. When she looks up, she looks like an armadillo. Her name's Diamondstar.
Then there's my Chocolate Lab, Nutmeg, with the obsession of eating. Snatches food whenever she can but she usually waits for it to drop on the ground. Usually.
And last but not least, my hermit crab, Tsunami! He's so adorable with his blue shell and he's very active when you put him down on something. My brother's died a day ago and he cried and cried...we're getting him another one though.
2. Nutmeg - my great-grandmother's Chocolate Lab that she gave away had puppies and I received Nutmeg from the owner. We brought her home when she was about 12 weeks I think...my memory isn't that good.
Lilly-Mae - We got her from the Animal Shelter. Her face attracted us before we knew she was a bit mean. Can't take her back as she already controls most of the house.
Tsunami - A small booth in the mall that sells hermit crabs for its living. Pretty neat really ^-^
Diamondstar - In my aunt's backyard behind a pile of bricks. She looked abandoned and we took her home with us yesterday. So sweet though she hisses...
3. Nutmeg - Over six years now...pretty old considering her lifespan.
Lilly-Mae - 2 years I believe...she's four now.
Tsunami - He's been here for a week now...heh...
Diamondstar - One day but I've known her for three days.
4. I've had seven fish before, another cat, and another Lab. I believe all of my fish are dead now, my cat died two years ago because of diabetes or another illness, and we had to give the Lab (the aunt of Nutmeg) away because she was wild.
5. Yes, I received Lilly-Mae from the Shelter and I sometimes volunteer there. One dog tried to eat my shoes...
6. A friend of mine said her brother trained her dog to steal underwear from the laundry. Then there was the goose my grandmother had that chased people around and when she gave it away, the lady strangled it until it was good.
7. An alligator. Yes, an alligator. My grandmother kept it in a fish bowl until it grew too big and she gave it to I believe my great-uncle. It died though because people kept dropping rocks on it.
