Hooray for the animal kingdom! Some amazing pets here, a Kangaroo and an Octopus?! I don't feel so weird now...
Some of my slithering companions :d
Jasmine
Clementine
This little girl came to me with a terminal illness, our time together was short and stressful, but I loved her - RIP Delilah
Get any of my Pythons out in the sun and Tada!
The owner of said shiney skin, Lenny (short for Lennox) having a stretch before destroying Mummies pot plants as usual, he really hates those plants lol:
Sometimes he will curl up next to me on bed and watch me on the Nexus, a lovely tempered snake, about as 'tame' as they get:
My cat, who I no longer live with, she is ancient now and resides with my parents she is not a poser though:
These guys have the coolest little faces, Pixie:
My beautiful Boa Constrictor intergrade:
Playing 'fetch' with Rodney (he is a plonker)
There's more just ask, and yes there are feeding/ shedding pics as well

wow!!!! purges those are amazing animals. such beautiful colors, the diversity of this planets inhabitants amazes me.
Why thank you! I keep mainly the one species, and just the variation alone from individual to individual is spectacular, but when you reallise this is going on over hundreds, or even thousands of species, and then think how many have also gone extinct / evolved etc, it really is quite remarkable. I doubt I could memorise every snake species even though I am a real nerd with these things lol.
Sucks you have to leave your dog I know how tough it is, I miss my cat, we do spend a lot of time giving each other love when we see each other though.

so many great animals!! especially love the siamese cats.... i've always wanted one. my ex had a couple and told me stories about their vocal nature. had the cops called on him a couple times because they were crying so loud.
here's a pic of my grecian cat nessie whom i brought home with me from greece a year and a half ago. i adopted her while living in greece and we bonded deeply despite her very feral nature. sadly she disappeared not long after she became an american citizen. fortunately... she often visits me in my dreams

not sure if this is one of the saddest, or most wonderful, pet stories ever.
Maybe both.

Thanks mate, it was very sudden, he just deteriorated over the course of 2 days and was gone before a vet was available. Septicemia and Renal Gout was the outcome of his post mortem, not much I could have done really I'm glad I had such a little character in my life, even if it was for a fraction of the time we could have spent together...

Dog Story:
Kukkuripa
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia:
Kukkuripa was a mahasiddha who lived in India. He became interested in tantric Buddhist practice, and chose the path of renunciation. During his travels, he found a starving dog in a bush. Moved by compassion, he fed the dog and took care of her. The two stayed together and eventually found a cave where Kukkuripa could meditate in peace. When he went out for food, the dog would stay and guard the cave.
One day, after 12 years passed, the stories say that the gods of the Thirty-three sensual heavens took note of Kukkuripa's accomplishments, and invited him to their heavens. He accepted, and while there he was given many pleasureable things, such as great feasts. Every time he would think of his loyal dog, left behind at the cave, he would begin to think that he should return to her, but every time they would convince him to stay.
Eventually, he looked down from the heavens and saw that his dog had become thin, sad, and hungry, and right there he decided that he would return to the cave. Upon his return, both master and dog were happy, and upon scratching her, the dog instantly vanished. In her place stood a dakini. The dakini told him that he had learned that there are greater things than temptation, and helped grant him realization. He attained realization, and returned to Kapilavastu, where he lived a long life for the benefit of others.
