family pets?

i want some pets, lol so we decided to get a rabbit, but its going to take 2-3 weeks for nick to build the hutch, so ive decided to get a hampster on friday lol!were getting a dwaf one! anyone got/had a hampster what they like?

awwwww i love hamsters. theyre so cute. used to have them when i was younger. i have 4 cats now so it wouldnt be fair on the poor thing.
i want a rabbit too but dp says 4 cats are enough lolol

the hampster and rabbit isnt for the kids lol, there for me! lol

i had 2 cats but had to get rid, they were really naughty! and ive had a dog but he grew to big, he used to knock me off my feet!

were getting a dog in august, getting a staffy! i cant wait!

my brother and sister both have a staffy. theyre gorgeous dogs

well its my m8s dog and shes pg at the mo, so after shes had the pups there selling her to me! yey!!! lol

I love dogs but can be lots of work & bit of a tie if you wanna go on hols. But then if you've got a mate or family nearby who'll look after them while you're away, I guess that's problem solved!

my mum has two cats and a dog and my little 4month old loves them. unfortunately we can't have a pet in the private flat but as soon as we get a council place im getting her a kitten and a puppy that she can grow up with pets i say are the best things to have with kids.

I had a house trained rabbit, until last week he had to be put to sleep unfortunately but they are good company.

We have also got a dog, Roxie, she's the loveliest dog. Freakily she always knew I was pregnant, she would lay her head on my stomach. She's protective over the kids too, when we're out she will always walk next to the buggy.

This is our dog Mavrick.
We will not be ttc#5 so with all four kids at school and the demands of my Husbands job Mavrick keeps me company now.
He is a snuggler and loves to walk. He would walk 8 to 10 miles a day if I would take him, but any walk is great fun with him.
Mavrick gets along great with all the kids and treats my Husband like a playmate.
I have never had a pet before now I could not even think of life with out my dog.

Awwwwwwww he's so lovely, I love the company of our dog, my dh works nights and we got Roxie before we had kids so I felt safer on my own, not that I think she would actually do anything to an intruder than lick them to death LOL!!![/img]
