Gent Zoo
 Pictures

 

 

The standing joke around our house,
is we have enough animals to be classified a Zoo.
The last year or so, we have been in jeopardy
of loosing that title. (To my delight!)

Over the years, our family has had:
3 cats, Dilbert, Phantom and Maxi,
who all had to be adopted out,
due to cat hair allergies.

We had 2 Chinchillas, Petey and Max
 (Max is still alive),
also 3 hedgehogs, Monte and Carlo,
and Matt, who was a white hedgehog.
2 Splendid Parakeets, Mr Magoo, and Molly Too,
A couple singing yellow canaries,
Numerous Budgies,
a Sulphur Crested Cockatoo, named Charlie,
6 Guinea pigs, (started with 2 "free" ones),
4 rabbits,
and more....

We have had numerous dogs,
some large like Timber, Kelly, and Bailey,
some small like Tansy and Mac.
Some purebred, most mutts.

Our Dogs in the order we have owned them:
 Schultz & Jasper,  both Heinz 57's,
Asker, a purebred Springer Spaniel,
Rags, a Maltese Poodle Cross,
Kelly, a Newfie Lab cross,
 Poppy, a Purebred Sheltie,
Bailey, a purebred Golden Retriever,
JJ, a German Shepherd Cross,
Timber, an Akita & Alaskan Malamute cross,
Tansy, a purebred Brindle Cairn Terrier,
Mac, a purebred Blonde Cairn Terrier,
Robbie, our Fluppy Dog!
