I don't have pictures of our fids (kids with fur or feathers)....

First we have a hyperactive, brain-damaged dark golden retriever named Duke. (looks just like the Bush Baked Beans Duke . Yes he is really brain-damaged as he ran into a tree full speed trying to catch a frisbee when he was about a year old and knocked himself out for a very long time (like 30 minutes), now whenever he runs too much he has seizures. Poor baby.

Then we have a 10 lb shitzu mix that my oldest son rescued from the humane society. Her name is Nova and when she needs out or wants something, she spins in a circle on her hind legs.

We have two female guinea pigs that my husband brought home without permission. If anyone in Iowa wants them, they are yours! He didn't have permission to overload our ark!

We have one male grey pearl rabbit. His name is Whisper and my husband (the Noah wannabe) let my son get him for his birthday.

Did I say I am tired of rodents yet?

We have two wonderful cats. Thor, an 8 year old beige tabby, who is stuck to me like velcro everyday as I do my mom stuff! We have the cutest little black and white kitty named Rio-oki (rabbit) that keeps me so amused. She is the sweetest little thing. We had her mommy too, but Puffy went to kitty heaven last summer (we still miss her .

Lastly we have a caged-bound male cockatiel that is about 4 years old named Buster. He is content to talk to me all day long, but does not like to be handled. We rescued him from a pet shop that was going out of business, and he seemed waif like there. He loves to tell me "I love you" and "Hello, time to turn on the light"
