Pets You Will and Will Not Own.....

[mrose_s]

Will own.
Dogs
Horses/Ponies/donkies
Cattle/Buffalo
Sheep
Maybe goats (they might be too naughty and smart for me)
Chickens/Ducks/Geese/Guinea Fowl
Rats
Pigs
Rabbits
Most Native Marsupials (not koalas) - would love to be a wildlife carer one day. Not while I have Buzzy though.
Flying foxes (as above)
Ferrets
Cats
Camel! I wanttttt
Alpaca
Snakes
Tarantulas (I've been playing with getting one for a while but my brother is terrified of spides and told me if I get one - he's getting pet frogs (my phobia))

Wouldn't own
Guinea Pigs
Mice
Small birds or birds I had to cage the majority of the time.
Lizards
Frogs

[PlottMom]

I'd probably own most animals, but realistically I'd like to just be busy enough with my dogs to only have dogs from here on out. OH - and tortoises! When we have money I want to put a tortoise yard outside now that we live in Cali

[Catsi]

I currently live with -

2 dogs
1 cat
2 cockatiels
1 corella
6 bantam hens

I'd not choose to live with birds, although I am fond of the ones we have. I'm just not a 'bird' person... my brother and mother are naturals with birds.
Same with the cat - my brother and father are the more natural cat people.
I am definitely a dog person myself.

I wouldn't rule out more chooks in the future, because I really enjoy having them around and I'm very fond of Ruby (she doesn't sleep in the henhouse, she sleeps on top of the old dryer on the back patio).

I wouldn't rule out a cat, but I wouldn't seek one out... that's how we have ended up with our cats over the years.

Birds - I'm just not cut out to be an awesome bird owner. I do my bit in taking care of them and ensure their basic needs are met, but I don't really connect with them (these birds are not 'my' birds).

Rats appeal ever so slightly for some reason, but I'd probably not own one. Ferrets, rabbits etc are not for me. And neither are reptiles.

I'll be boring and stick with my dogs.

[JacksonsMom]

I think, as a kid, I wanted every animal out there too. Now... my list is pretty simple.

What I would own:

dogs
cats (and even cats are a big maybe).

LOL...

What I wouldn't:
anything else.

I'm not into reptiles or anything of the sort. Spiders, snakes, and the like... UGH no way. I have a phobia. Never cared to own a bird -- too noisy for my liking. Used to have guinea pigs and hamsters and HATED cleaning the cage. I wanted a ferret for a really long time but got over it. I'd MAYBE own a ferret in the far future -- but not really sure on that.

[sassafras]

I really only foresee myself with dogs and cats in the future, once our parrot and catfish pass away.

[JustaLilBitaLuck]

Definitely:
Dogs
Cats

Possibly:
Horses (I love them, but the financial aspect is not appealing)
Fish (I'd love to get into fish and fishtanks once I have the time/money)
Rabbits (Only if I could have a whole indoor/outdoor area set up - I wouldn't want them to be cooped up)

Never:
Birds (I love mine, but never again)
Rodents (I dislike cleaning cages)
Ferrets (again, the cage thing)
Reptiles (holds no thrill for me)
Livestock (just...no)
Exotics/Undomesticated (again...no)

[PWCorgi]

Will own:
RATS RATS RATS!
Dogs
Cats
Fish!
Geckos
Blue Tongued Skinks (and really, any kind of skink )
Will prob end up with another snake at some point, corn or ball.
Gpigs!
Ryan REALLY wants a Capybara

Will not own:
Pretty much everything else, some by choice and some just due to living in an urban area (probably will never own another horse )

[Locke]

Will own:
- dogs

- rhactodactylus gecko species

Might own:
