Ducks!!!!!!!!!!! The most wonderful creatures on the planet! My second favorite animals are donkeys (so cute!) and horses. I have nine Ancona ducks, and more will hatch any day now! I'm so egg-cited! Ducklings are the cutest things on earth! Quack, quack, quack!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

CATSSSSS!!!!! I have loved cats for YEARS now! But yet they're still my VERY FAVORITE animal! I especially love cheetahs, and any other big cats. Actually cheetahs aren't big cats, but they're close. I read this book a long time ago about big cats, and it said that cheetahs aren't ACTUALLY part of the big cat family, but they aren't part of the little cat family either (bob cat, lynx etc. etc.) But anyways, I either like the cheetah or leopard the best! I also like the panther, which is a leopard except it's black. OH how I adore cats! Sadly I don't own a cat. *sniff sniff*

My favorite animals are dolphins and turtles!!!  (I like sea turtles the best).  BUT... I do have two pet baby turtles!!!  They are water turtles and they are only 3-4 inches long.  I would love to tell you their names, but I don't want to say tooo much... He He He!  They are the cutest things, though, except, it is NOT easy to clean out their tank.  UGH, it is awful.  WAY worse than a hamster, and I know, becuz my sister had a dwarf hamster.  But I love turtles so much, I deal with the grossness.  Too bad I can't get a dolphin...

Okay, now anyway, favorite animals and pets:  My favorite animals are either tigers, bongos, or giraffes.  They're all cute!! :):) And for pets, I currently have a cat named Cat, a green girl parakeet named Buddi, and a yellow boy canary named Mozart.  I also had a blue boy parakeet named B.B. (Blue Bird), but he died on 12/23. :(:( SUCH a cute bird!!! :( I used to have two gerbils; the black one's name was Pepsi, and the tan one's name was Sprite. :):) They lived to be pretty old for rodents!! :) And, from time to time, I seem to take in tuxedo cats, such as Bob and Alice. (Bob got eaten by a coyote, and we took Alice, the run-away, to the animal shelter, where her owner found her. :):)

My most favorite animals are elephants, dogs, and monkeys. But I like all animals. I have a mutt dog named Houston, and I used to have an orange tabby cat named Tut.

I Love Sea turtles or any other type of turtle, but mostly sea turtles. I own one hermit crab,  they are supposed to be social animals, but all my others died and I decided not to get any more. The one that I have right now has been living by him/her self for a few years now.(It is impossible to tell if a hermit crab is a girl or a boy). I also have four cats on my farm and four kittens born last week! They are so cute, all of them are orange except for one calico, but I guess she does have some orange on her. We usually have LOTS of cats, but most of them died last year from distemper. 

My sister owns a horse named carmen because she has red hair. It is really funny because after she sheds we find red birds nests made out of horse hair.(: I live on a farm, so we also have cows and used to have a pig, but I guess you can't really count them as pets because we get new ones each year after the old ones get butured. ):

*screams*  We recently adopted two kittens from the local animal shelter!!  They're . . . 9 or 10 weeks old, I think, and SUPER CUTE!!!! :):D:) One's a light gray tabby girl, and the other one's a dark gray, almost black, super fluffy boy kitten!!  Their names are Robin and Tiger.  They were sick for a while, and they're still sneezing, but they're recovering: they've started attacking pencils again. :):D:) Has anyone else got a kitten!? :)

!!!!!  YOU ARE SO LUCKY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Every spring this local pet shop gets kittens, and they have a cage you can go in, and you can hold the kittens and play with them and they are SO ADORABLE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!  Last time I went, a couple of weeks ago, there were two little stripy ones, and the sleepy one kept climbing onto my shoulder.  EEE!!!!  I love kitten so much!!!!!!!!!!!!!  :)

 

JoJo was a kitten when I found him!  Now he's... um... I dunno, a couple of years old?  But he still acts like a kitten, aaaalllll the time!  (still, I want a kitten)  (I often look on craigslist for kitties!!  The pictures are so cute!!!!!) 

 

Anyway, enough ranting about how ADORABLE kittens are.  :D

Its funny  how meadow and I agree about  everything! I dont like humens either. I had an obsession with llamas for a while. Have you heard the llama song (look for it on you tube):

here's a llama
there's a llama
and another little llama
fuzzy llama
funny llama
llama llama
duck

llama llama
cheesecake
llama
tablet
brick
potato
llama
llama llama
mushroom
llama
llama llama
duck

i was once a treehouse
i lived in a cake
but i never saw the way
the orange slayed the rake
i was only three years dead
but it told a tale
and now listen, little child
to the safety rail

did you ever see a llama
kiss a llama
on the llama
llama's llama
tastes of llama
llama llama
duck

half a llama
twice the llama
not a llama
farmer
llama
llama in a car
alarm a llama
llama
duck

is THIS how it's told now?
is it all so old?
is it made of lemon juice?
doorknob
ankle
cold
now my song is getting thin
i've run out of luck
time for me to retire now
and become a duck

I wish I could listen to the llama song.  But the sound isn't working right now.  :(
