    We have a Cavalier King Charles Spaniel called Emily who is 9 years old.

    We also have a 4ft tank in the hall of tropical fish and a 2ft tank in the livinroom with tropical fish.

    We did have a Cockatiel called Cocktail and had 2 dwarf hamsters called Harry and potter. They are now all in the garden of the old house.

    Daughter would love a rabbit but so far we have managed to ignore that one

    We have three female cats all from the same litter. We went to the RSPCA home to get a new cat after losing our beloved Minnie (also a rescue cat), and ended up adopting a whole litter of kittens

    Koda - 5 months old - a Nova Scotia Duck Tolling Retriever. A real pickle and does things the other dogs have never done, but oh so gentle and calm with the mindees.

    Fudge - 12 year old fudge coloured cat

    Merlin - 10 year old black cat with half a tail

    Cleo and Skye - 3 yr old sisters cats.

    We are down to the 2 dogs Mylo and Max.

    Herbert hamster died and the 6 Zebra Finch-rehomed to a large aviary.

    We won't be having any more pets when the old boys depart, which hopefully won't be for a while.
    Come back David....

    We are down to our least number of animals for many years at the moment:-

    Parker - Whippet/lab cross 12 years old - rescue dog found wandering in a park in Norwich.
    Toffee - Fluffy tortoishell cat 8 years - left behind when a neighbour moved
    Susie - Black & white cat 4-5 years - a "feral" cat that sleeps on my chest if I let her! Picked up in a feral colony in Llanelli with 6 kittens.
    Cleo - black & white cat 3 years (Susie's kitten) - Last of the litter and being a softie could not take Mum & leave kitten behind.

    We also have adopted a "feral" black & white tom that is now coming into the lobby for food. Typical man demands food then disappears without saying anything! So looks like another one will be joining us! DH says that he must be his as the other cats have each picked me or the 2 girls as theirs.
