kitty and christmas presents

This is a picture of my cat Whiskers. She is a black and white tuxido cat. Whiskers is going to be 17 years old this June
and her favorite hobbies include sleeping, eating, sleeping, meowing, sleeping, being scratched behind the ears, and more sleeping.

gecko under log

The gecko, called Mr. Smiles, is my brother's pet, which thankfully stays in his room.
Having a pet gecko also comes with a constant supply of large, live, noisy crickets. :P
My mom hates having to feed the gecko when my dad and brother are out of town.

family fish tank

This is our family fish tank. We have almost a dowxen small fish and one small frog.
The fish tank was my Dad's idea to get and he is the one who takes care of them.

two gerbals in a basket

These are our new pet gerbals, most affectionately known as the rats or ratsy(s).
Jelly (short for Jelly Belly) is trying to climb out and Jiff (short for Jiff peanut butter) is the shy one is the back.
The little red spot is a dried cranberry that they were to camera why to eat.
We adopted our first set of gerbals from an old teach of mine, after he adopted them when his friend got deported.
In the last year we lost the others, but we had grown so attached to having them around that we decided to get another pair over winter break 2005.


I also have a beta fish in my dorm room that I was unable to photograph. His name is Leo and he is green and blue.
He is kind of a funny pet to have in my dorm because he always hides in the back of hid bowl unless he is hungry.
