kc definitely wins the animal thread and millie and I welcome her into our animal union.

The most animals I've owned at a single point were two dogs, one cat (my friend later adopted one of the dogs and I got another cat), two lovebirds, twenty-something different fish in a 50 gallon tank, five african diving frogs and three bettas. I was reeeeally close to getting a small pair of rabbits that needed a home but talked myself out of it.

Since then, I've downgraded to my dog, two cats and one betta. Except that uh, most of the fish died on my move to California, so that was an accidental downgrade

Sometimes I tell myself that I couldn't handle that many animals again, but I know it's a lie. I'd like to have two dogs when I finally settle down and own my own home and have a pair of smaller animals like buns or ferrets. Also a hedgehog. Gotta have a hedgehog.

I agree with Jon Stewart when he said, "I don't trust people who don't like animals." Amen, brother.
