You should live with my brother & sister-in-law!! They have a farm-ette (35 acres), 3 horses, 2 cats, 2 Dobermans, and whatever is left in their lane each week! Both of them should have been vets, or something like that - it's amazing what they will do for their animals - My brother used to handfeed a geriatric lizard who couldn't put his tongue out! Oh, they sold off their cash crop - several pythons, boas, and other snakes. blech.

My mama has a bichon frise, "Mr. Buff" who we call Buffy. He was rescued from a puppy mill - he was the stud, and is just a bundle of love! I would LOVE to see some of his puppies!!

I don't have a pet - I babysit Buffy enough to consider partial ownership! - because I'm allergic to most cats & dogs. But since bichons have hair, not fur, I can handle them! I've had several cats over the years, and I can't pass up a cat without chin-chucking him or her!
