General Pet Census

15 tortoises in 4-5 months?! funny thing kelly, i can't see that line

 

[cvalda]

Well... I meant, you know... OTHER people... sometimes other people need to draw lines! I haven't had to draw mine yet! Once I run out of space... then then I'm sure the line will jump up and smack me upside the head!

Once I run out of space... then then I'm sure the line will jump up and smack me upside the head!

Sooo doubtful! hehehe

 

[swedeheart]

ROFL! So true, Anja! I started with three petshop buys (three Russians) and didn't have a clue... this was early August. Actually at the time, I only had 6 kids, one dog and four cats. Then I got the three torts. Since then I've added three kids (he he he, that sounds kinda funny), one dog (belongs to my 12-yr old), a lizard (belongs to my 11-year old), five hermit crabs (which is because my 10-yr old got two and them we needed some more for "company") and... how many torts - really really it's not so bad!!! Only 8 of the torts are mine! The other 7 belong to my kids! ROFL!

What this is meant to say is... WE ALL START SOMEWHERE!!! AND we all have to draw the line somewhere!!!

Wow sounds like you have your handful! Your house sounds like it would be fun to live in! If you want another kid, no need to look any furter

How big is your house just out of curiousity?

I almost feel stupid posting my short list lol

In many ways, a shorter list is nicer. The fewer you have, the more time each one can get from you.
