Let's see, I think I am all petted out, 2 dobies, 2 cats, a pet rat who are living with me, a few lambs (now grown into sheep) that are living with the farmer (bought the mother sheep as she was my first "sheep friend" and followed me around and I wanted to make sure she could graze the rest of her life in peace without becoming mutton or dog food, she then gave birth while I was sitting on the field and reading a book and introduced her newborn lambs to me - it was a pretty grotty affair, first time I saw that, I'm a city gal - so I bought the lambs too, and again the year later...) and I pay their vet bills and about £25 for each every year for "grazing rights and boarding" (shearing and all that). I'm now forbidden by other half to go near the sheep when it's lambing season unless I agree to his plan to buy an old farmhouse in the middle of nowhere - sod it, it's a rather small town (for me), already feels like the middle of nowhere, I'm not moving even further away from civilization! I would love a horse but considering the vet bills I already have and the time it would take to look after it properly, err, I think I give that a miss and I am fine with just going riding on a horse that is not mine... So nope, no more new pets in the near future (and a silent prayer that I haven't jinxed it and I will meet an adorable stray in need of a home somewhere)
