I once had an iguana, too, but when I broke up with the guy I was with at the time, he got custody. She was about four feet long and didn't care if I lived or died, so it was best she went with him anyway. She almost drowned in the bathtub one time (they have to get wet regularly) and I actually had to give her artifical respiration to bring her back from dead. She had already turned from green to yellow and was unconscious. True story! Anybody wanna kiss me now??? I'm puckered up!!!! :o
My cocker spaniel Maggie:

As a former owner of a boa constrictor, and a lover of all things reptilian, even I've gotta say this is going a bit above and beyond the call of duty!Quote:

But Steve Irwin (the Crocodile Hunter) would be proud of you, at least. ;)
I have a Pit Bull named Alexi
A great Dalmation (tasha) who would rather lick you to death than bite. 75 gal freshwater tank with a few angels and silver dollars. One of which is 12". I dont name em', they die right after that for some reason!
(can we count our wifes as pests er um pets too?)
Two dogs - both part Gordon Setter, part Australian Shepherd. They're 10 months old and already over 50 pounds a piece. These dogs are going to be huge!
One's named Shadow- all black & brown - she likes to bite you. Not to break the skin, just gnaw on your arm while you're petting her.
The other is Siren - black, brown & white - she just wants love. Pet her and she's your best friend.
Alone, they're great, well-behaved dogs. Together, they are the supidest dogs that have ever existed.

Tests show that rats are actually better at solving labyrinths than humans!Quote:

I have read that one of the best ways to keep rats from escaping from their cage is to leave the door open. They'll get out once or twice, then realize they're away from their nice safe home where there's plenty of food, water, and company, and they'll never do it again.Quote:
[*]They do not run away when let out of their cage for playtime; they actually will come when called (unless, of course, there's something fascinating that they can't tear themselves away from).[/B]
I don't doubt it! And the fascinating thing about the intelligence stats to me is how small (as in, physical size) their brains are in comparison to dog brains and human brains.Quote:

Indeed, they do not view the cage as a prison, but as their "safe place," their home. Only reason I couldn't use your method is because I kept the cage on top of a piece of furniture that was too high to risk having them fall.Quote:

Nice to have another Rodentiaphile around!! :)
I have a cool cat named Yo-Yo. He is a Domestic medium haired all black with a few very long white hairs on his chest. Yo-Yo will play fetch with me for hours, or until .I get bored.
ROFL! Oh yeah... I forgot that I have to feed and water him, too! He's not much on the belly rubs, tho.Quote:
