I guess we're kinda in the boring department when it comes to pets. Right now we just have dogs, cats, & goldfish. In the past though I've had: a hedgehog, love birds, pythons, iguanas, a bat, a squirrel, a tarantula, a skink (my son was responsible for many of the odd pets).
Sad day yesterday. One of our Golden Retrievers passed away. Kelly was our 8 year old female & it appears that she died of heart worms (went from testing negative for the parasite to deceased in 18 months). She left a big hole in the family.
