As pets: A crow named Joe, pigeon named Bell and a squirrel named Hazel. Most people did not like my pet Rat (Ben) or my iguana (Sam). I have always nursed animals back to health - stray ducks, an owl, fawn, rabbits, and some squirrels. lol ... and the thing that I got the most harrassed about was trying to save some baby mice that fell out of their nest in the barn.
