I've only owned two pets in my entire life: a parakeet growing up and an orange tabby (my husband's).

Thanks for sharing!

I'm all about photos from my trip to Greece last May.

Scooper, it's an incomplete list. I had more then 13.

It sounds like you have your hands full and you definitely love animals:)

Tink said...

What a lovely list to read! You're an animal lover like me. I've done a list like this when I had just joined TT about my cats and dogs, but I've had more. :-)
My TT lists the 13 goals of a witch, with my thoughts and comments.

Pets do light up our lives, don't they?

Our oldest cat just tried climbing onto the keyboard as I began typing this comment. Pets. Gotta love 'em.

Sad about the pet food thing. One of the consequences of "free trade" with countries that do not have our health and safety standards--omething politicians *spit* ought to be held accountable for, IMO, along with "cheaper is better" businesses...

Yes, Donna, pets do light up our lives.

David I agree with you.

it's so nice to have a pet. right now, we don't have any but we are planning to get a horse and a dog too after we move to the country...

I had no idea rabbits could live to be that old!

Alastriona, The Cats and Dogs said...

Unfortunately as they age rabbits lose the use of their hind legs.

Happy~Hoppy was unable to hop the last few months of his life, he drug himself along using his front legs. The vet said it was normal for an elderly rabbit.

Girlie said...

Wow, I didn't know that rabbits could live that long!

Thanks for the info, happy T13.

Mine's about moving.

I'm so sorry about #11! But I'm glad your other pet survived.
