The Thread name speaks for itself. I am curious as to what kind of pets everyone has. I get us started.
My Dad is a veterinarian so we always have lots of pets. He is also a zoo vet. So we can have up to 20 pets at a time in our house ranging from dogs, cats, birds, lizzards, snakes, frogs, fish, and much more. Currently though, we have three cats and a dog.
The History of the cats: The white cat in the pic (see below) is named Mickey Blue Eyes. He is a rescue cat. He is totally deaf, but he has a very loud pur and meow. He has a great personality and very athletic. He is about 7 years old. The Black cat is named Gina. We gave her to my grandpa after my grandma died so he wouldn't be lonely. Sadly, he died a year later. As a result, we took her back. She is about 3 years old. The Mixed colored cat is an interesting cat. Her name is Beenie. She is about 9 approaching 10 years old. She is half blooded Main Coon and Bob Cat. She was found in a box full of other kittens on our door step one morning. My Dad took them to his clinic for adoption, but my sister wanted that cat, so we kept that one. Whenever I come home from school, she is always on my lap and never wants me to leave. She will lay on your stomach and massage your neck.
The Dog: The Dog's name is Kandi (pronounced Candy). She is a golden retriever. She was a former show dog. She was abused by her former owners and we rescued her. She is almost 12 years old. She loves to swim and play with her bally (Tennis Ball). Here is a pic of her dressed up for Halloween. That was my mom's idea. Notice in the pic behind Kandi's head, you can see Gina's eyes glowing. This pic still freaks me out when I see it in a slide show!

Now I am 6'2" and 215 lbs, so they don't mess with me much.
