Just the one small dog. Quite enough thank you.Has the run of downstais, not allowed up and knows it.

+4000 fish, pla nin ,pla tapien Nile tilipia and mudcarp 1 terrapin ( Beryl), 1 crab ( Gerald), some shrimp, The Wife and two staff .....lump em all together.

7 cats, 3 dogs and would be 5 but for the stinking Thai drive by and killing two of them., 7 turkeys, 15 chicken, 2 ducks 2 geeses, 10 assorted other birds, mostly doves numerous gin goks, some cockroaches, lots of ants and flys. think that does it.

keep em off the road then

Haven't got any.........not any more.........never again......don't want to know about furry mammals.

Got enough abuse on TVF about my mammals and my devotion to the General.

From now on I'm keeping my mouth shut.

You are the losers.....not me......you will never be enlightened.

C'mon my little furry friends........time for milking now, daddy is only upset with these horrible people on TVF.......never with you.

Also have a giraffe and a few more scary little things. I love them and they never need feeding, vets, or cleaning up after them. They never make noise at night and I tell them all my woes when "she who must be obeyed" is not talking to me. Another reason why I love Thailand....at home I would never be able to have my "zoo" in my front garden. Thai have a lovely imagination when it comes to stuff like this....we Westerners can be too serious at times....me thinks.

So what's a concrete tiger worth these days?

I get easily confused these days. What's a pet, what's for dinner.

These are the pets / whatever that the 'family' have that I end up supporting:

2 decorative fish ponds.

1 stocked fish pond for occasional net dining.

2 small yappy dogs,

1 kitten that just appeared on our couch out of nowhere

2 birds

2 hand-fed flying squirrels

1 Hedgehog

300 frogs

18 chickens that don't even belong to us

2 large jars full of bugs (I stopped asking)

Seriously a pet hedgehog?

Are they friendly beasts?

The Flying Squirrels are certainly more cuddly, but the Thais think the Hedgehogs are too cute for words.

We originally had two Hedgehogs that quickly turned into 6. Gave all but one away (which I don't understand since we purchased the original two). They're nocturnal creatures so only like to play at night. I only like seeing the cat frustrated, trying to figure out how to 'play' with it.

Two birds, 7 dogs, 100's of fish, 1000's of gecko's, 10 000's bees, 100 000's ants and 1 000 000's of mozzies.

I have this to guys in Stockholm. Both are born in Thailand.

One or two cats. But they don't last more than a year before going 'walkabout' or getting run over. Currently one cat, three catfish and innumerable guppies. No kids or deadbeat relatives. Just me, the wife and the pets. Unless you want to count the cockroaches under the fridge.

We used to have assorted rats (I don't think they actually lived here, just visited in the evenings), some lizards and the occasional extra large sized cockroach.

Now we just have one cat.

I've got lots of pets - they're all called Eric.

7 cats and 3 dogs they all get along fine just like me and the wife

Do you have any pics of the hedgehogs? I've seen some in my local pet shop, what do you keep them in and what do you feed them?

As the question did not specify home in Thailand, I will tender the current inventory in Arizona... Two dogs, four cats, (done from thirty odd, wherever the heck they all came from), and one old retired mare. In recent time as many as four horses, goats, yaks, and a variable flock of chickens. Many transient cattle.
I see no reason to change habits when finally ensconced in Thailand. Most of my Thai friends either have or would like to have animal family members.
I was happy to befriend many of the ubiquitous cats and dogs in the neighbourhood during my two month visit to Bkk.

Most people here just feed them cat food, though I like to add fresh vegetables, plants and bugs.

We have a larger box now but in the beginning we just kept them in a clean storage box with wood shavings and a PVC tub for them to hide in. Then need exercise like any rodent, but they tend to be unstable when they climb. I was told they'd love a smooth exercise wheel (haven't found one yet) though I let mine run around the open area of the yard supervised. Inside they can find very interesting places to hide.

Sorry, I don't have a closeup pic of them. Here's one from the Internet... and, NO, they are NOT SOFT to hold.

The wife, the boy, a few mosquitoes and one or two cockroaches.

2 dogs 1 cat....

One dog, been ours for 16 years now. The only autistic dog I've ever seen.

Really a monkey?

How much does a monkey cost to buy?

Think she was only about 2000 baht.

We live close to the Cambodian border and some locals were picking mushrooms in the jungle and found her as a baby - think the hunters must have killed the mother.
