Nice! What kind of hamster? Is it the same as the old one?


Go to the ant, you sluggard; consider its ways and be wise! It has no commander, no overseer or ruler, yet it stores its provisions in summer and gathers its food at harvest. -Proverbs 6: 6-8

So if kids are larvae, is adolescence like a crazy caterpillar phase, right before pupating, when they eat everything in sight?

 

I used to have birds (small psittacines). I miss birds. One of my best friends was a bird.

Now I have a dog (again). One of my best friends was a dog.

Ants.

Isopods.

Jumping spiders.

Termites.

Feeder roaches and other feeder insects.

 

I've had pet fish, plus some anoles and a rat in ages long past. You can add in the various random brine shrimp and triops, too.

Yup about the only type of common pet I haven't had is ... cat. Oh and amphibians. Haven't had any amphibs.
