Hello pets:)

I have a billion pets. It's pretty ridiculous. I have a dog and her name is Zero. She is adorable but smells really bad. Not my fault. I also have a cat named Emma. She is fat. I don't know why all my pets turn fat but they do. Like my betta fish Princess. She is pretty chubby. It could be because I feed her like three times a day. Hmm. My sister and brother both have betta fish of their own too. This summer my dad bred some of his betta fish, so we have currently about 300 or so? There cute though. My dad also likes turtles. We have about fifteen turtles. Most of them we've had my whole life. There are defiantly part of my family. We also have salamanders and frogs and a newt. There pretty cool. Whenever someone comes over to my house for the first time they are super fascinated with all of them. Some of my friends look at them every time they come over.

I think it would be pretty cool to work at a pet store. Not for a life-time job, but a high school/college job. I have been around pets so long I would be a pro. In my previous Iowa towns, a lot of my friends lived on farms so I know stuff about farm animals too. Mostly just about cows, pigs, horses, and sheep. My sister likes bugs a lot so they've had a strong presence in my life too.
I used to have a cat named Chewy. I got him at a garage sale when I was in 4th grade. I loved him with all my heart. He was declawed so we had to keep him inside at most times. Sometimes Chewy would just look so depressed that we would let him out for a little while. My house now have a fenced backyard so we figured it would be okay to let Chewy outside to play. Unfortunately I got stuck with lame-o neighbors who complained about his freedom. The move here was very hard for me and I barley had time for Chewy anymore anyways. It was really hard, but I had to let him go. He was eight years old. He sprayed on carpets and was just miserable. So we had to put him to sleep. It was very sad. Every August 11th I still think of him. I also used to have three other dogs. They all were just not dogs for us so we ended up getting rid of them. That was sad but not as sad as Chewy.

Overall I'm pretty much an animal person. I still eat beef, hot dogs, and chicken nuggets so I can't quite call myself a true animal lover, but I'm up there. I will defiantly no matter what have pets when I get older. No they aren't humans, but sometimes having someone around who can't argue with you back is pretty nice.
