Dogs or cats or both or of course none at all
Right now we are none at all as we are away quite often and I don't think it's fair on animals and anyway, costs a fortune to put them in lodgings for two weeks at a time
If we had pets again we would have cats or maybe just one cat
Not having a dog I'm beyond taking it for walks
Could have a hamster
But the cat might eat it
So what's your situation with pets
Come on now let me.know.meow woof squeak

Don't have any, but we spend time around my mom's 2 dogs almost daily...so that's close enough.

Yes indeed
If you see 2 dogs every day it's like them is your pets as well
Is one a little white thing that looks quite cute

@Ineeddentures - I bathed my cat Gevi when he came back home covered in mud one time. He surely had a fight and fell into the brook.

I knew cats could swim
Ours drank water from a running tap and never showed us they didn't like water
But we never tried to bath them

Poor Gevi.
Did he let you bathe him without a struggle?

I get along better with dogs than cats so I have two. Every time we go on a trip, we have to scout for a hotel that allows them in. Same when we eat at restaurants.
Fortunately, we were able to find one that allow them in. When we had Danie only, we were able to travel a lot. But when Yuki came, it became less and less. Danie is easier to handle than Yuki.

@Ineeddentures There are those who don't allow dogs but fortunately, most of the restaurants here in our city do.

I don’t have any pets. I don’t know how anyone can afford dogs and cats. I’ve seen people out with three or four dogs, and wondered what the cost was of feeding them and paying vets bills. I like going for a walk, but not to be dragged round by a dog and to pick up its poo. No thank you!

Sort of agree with you on everything you said.
How about vets bills?
Pet health insurance,?
No thanks

Not having cats is a lot cheaper

I think we really should have money put aside for vets bills when we have pets.

@ineeddentures Like you, none because of travels. Would like another dog but I’m just not taking a wee plastic bag when I take it for walks. When travelling days are over we’ll get a cat. My wife has named most of the cats in Athens.

When we stop travelling it will be a cat.
Bending down to pick it up is problematic as I found out when we entertained a neighbours dog for 10 days.

My Shelby Ann passed away in October of 24 at age 15 1/2. With my health and finances, it would not be fair to bring in another for myself. I don't want to take a dog for a walk or potty at 3am with the mt lions, coyotos, bear and crazy weather.
My son wants cats and a dog, so...I live with him now so I have no choice to be around them, but the responsibility will be off me for the expenses.

@Ineeddentures It doesn't scare me too much, but those Mt Lion can be very quiet. I prefer to be inside at night.

My relatives loves to have cats inside the house which can be a challenge trying to avoid either falling or stepping on them walking inside the home.

The cats can indeed get under the feet of people in the house
And they sit on the sofa which is fine but they need to move if told to move

Hamsters bite lol

But it not Yvonne every time she picked it up
I imagine a cat sitter on London is very expensive as everything in London is very expensive
