How many pets is too many?

One! I say this because my children always want a million pets and I am always the one who ends up doing the tending and caring! I DO love our dog, though, and he is worth all the effort. Most days, that is!

i don't have

I don't know. Because I don't have even one.

You have too many pets when you can't properly care for them or your family, self, and home. If you are going to have a pet, you need to be able to meet all of their basic needs, clean up after them and give them the love and attention that they deserve. I see so many animal hoarders on shows like Animal Cops who claim they love their animals but it's obvious that they don't even provide them with their basic needs. It's really sad when you see people who have allowed their homes to be over populated with animals to the point where they can't even take a step without walking in animal waste. THAT is definitely too many animals!

Only Fish

Too many is when you have more than you have the time and energy to care for on a daily basis. I have two cats.....that way if I am not around to give them attention...thay have each other. No one even a pet should be alone in life.

I think you overreact. I would do probably the same if I were you. Having those poor animals stuffed up in a tiny apartement with a boyfriend? No way! I think I'm gonna press charges. Funny or not, if the animals were on the street or somewhere else, they would probably be miserable. I think your friend loves animals. So let her have as many as she likes.

In my opinion 1 is too many, but I'm not a pet person

1 for me my kids are enough work! But lots of my friends have many so it depends on the person.

you can never have too many pets, has a cat,dog,11 fish tanks,and 7 turtles

i feel. even one pet such as a dog is pretty engaging...more than 1 u cant do justice to them....so 2 is too many....

I think you have too many pets when you are unable to physically and financially take proper care of them all. That includes feeding, grooming, regular visits to the vet, up to date licensing, shots etc. If it is taking food out of your families mouth, then you have too many. If they do not have the proper space to get exercise and live in harmoney, you have too many. Since these things are mostly dependant upon the health and temperment of the animals involved, you can have quite a few pets before you hit the too many mark.. well. if you have financial means too..

No That Is Not Much There All Small

I'm not a pet person. In my opinion, one pet is too many!

Yes, like a zoo... lol

When the number of pets becomes too much to take care of. Pets are great, but they need lots of special attention. Be responsible!

Two of all these?. Imagine they are male and female,they get on heat at the same time and God help your friend the cats have 10 kittens. He is in trouble. He will have to vacate the house for the pets. To me having two pets of each not knowing where to dispose of them during breeding period is too, too many.

In my opinion your friend is a freek.. one animal in the house is nice.. tow.. is god but from three to "zoo" is to much.. my opinin ....

Well, I have 2 dogs, a cat and a rabbit. I love them all, but hate the constant clean up. My sister on the other hand has 2 turtles crawling around her house, 2 dogs, 4 cats, a tortoise, an albino frog, some fish and about a million birds. Which she breeds. That is too many. You have to watch where you walk for fear of stepping on something! Oh yes, she also has several lizards!
