Help control the pet population.......?

I don't know what happened at our house. A couple of years ago Donnie lost his mind and brought home a cat. He's a cute cat that Donnie bought at a pet store so that we would have a cat who would stay in the house. (HAHAHAHAHAHA!!) The little hunk missing off of one of his ears should have told him something.... Well, he doesn't stay in the house, but he IS a great cat! Then there were the parakeets. I think we went through 3 of them. 1 flew out the door and 2 died. Well, then we moved. So I picked up a Love Bird from the Humane Society. They don't get the name because they are sweet, loving birds, that's all I'm saying. She died from the cold, we had her in a room with a space heater, but it wasn't enough.
I had been searching for a dog, a GOOD dog. I troll the humane society weekly. I saw the cutest puppy that looked like a teddy bear! I IM'd the link to Donnie who told me to go get it! I don't know what he was thinking! Its a puppy! All went well until I got pregnant and was too sick to keep training. But he is a smart dog and not too bad.

Then Donnie told Hope-Anne she could have a hamster. I really don't know what he was thinking then! (lets just say he can't say no to any of his girls.) This is Rose. She's a good hamster.

Because she took such good care of Rose, Donnie told her she could get another hamster. The one petstore told him that Teddy bear hamsters need to be alone, they fight. So he went to a different petstore and they said it would be fine. So he bought another one. (they don't get along.)

So, here is Lilly. She climbs up the very top of the cage, hangs on the bars and sleeps up there. I woke her up with the flash, but that's how she sleeps.
Then, a couple of days later Donnie went to his men's group meeting at a friends house. The guy told him that he had 2 kittens that he had to get rid of and Donnie said he'd take one! So he comes home at 10pm with this little orange tiger kitten for Cody. We oohed and aahed over him for about 10 minutes when there was a knock at the door. (Yes, that late at night, lol) Apparently he let Donnie pick the wrong kitten and his son was bawling, so he drove for 1/2 an hour that late at night to bring us a different kitten, the very one I would have picked!
So, here is Midnight, who is a girl, which is WAY better than another boy cat. (it also is a stolen cat name from my mom)

This would all be from the guy who said NO MORE PETS. I think he had a couple of brain farts recently. Now we have a dog, 2 cats, 2 hamsters and a fish tank. I may just have to start gunning for a new dog, lol.

Ok, we are NOT this BAD!
