Not certain that everyone here has pet(s) ... but would love to see some pictures if you do!
We've had many over the years; dogs, cats, smaller birds, hamsters, a mouse.... making a move across country 20ish years ago with a combination of 10 of those was interesting.
We've also considered, but never pulled the trigger on many many (many) others.
Now - with one kid of three left in the house ... we're finally down to one dog and one cat (who is technically our son's).
I surprised myself by saying out loud to John the other day "this is my last dog" ... and his sacral agreed. Of course, I with emo authority, have no truth in the now so ... we shall see LOL. 😅
Can share pictures of our current 1 dog and 1 cat in residence in comments - but first the newest edition to our extended pet family (@leed is her momma) ....
I present Miss Ciri - who has an interesting origin story :)
Here it is - as I understand it.
-
One morning, Austin (@leed's lovely other half - that's his arm in the last picture) gets in his truck and heads to the gym
-
Upon arrival spots kitten in storm drain and tries to coax out - she was having none of it.
-
Goes ahead with workout, and when returning to truck, hears meowing but can't find it and then it stops.
-
Drives home.
-
Hears meowing again and calls Aleda out.
-
The kitten now known as Ciri (ie. grandkitty) remains elusive untillll....

Aleda has an idea that honestly would never have occurred to me ... she pulls out her phone and youtube searches "sounds that attract cats" or some such.
-
And out pops a little munchkin from somewhere in the under belly of the truck! 😀
Here's a little selection from The Life of Ciri for your viewing pleasure 💖
I know that @BeyondBeautiful has a new lovely too - can't wait to see more of her too! <3
Who've you got from the animal kingdom hanging around with you? :D
