I do not own any pets. As children we had various small pets including a manic ginger rabbit, who was very high maintenance and didn't last too long in the hutch. He was shipped off elsewhere, but he had character!!
The Sminky offspring have never had pets partly due to our lifestyle and hours of work. Miss S went through a phase of wanting a puppy, but she moved onto other ideas. The young lady turned 20 today. Yesterday now!!
Miss S should be out partying tonight, but after travelling back from London today has decided a night in with her mum in front of log fire and TV best option!! At least I won't wake up worrying about where she is and what time she's in!!
