      Yes! I live at home with my family, and right now we have a dog (Solo), two cats (Groucho and Floof), nine hens (one called Buttercluck, the other eight as yet unnamed because they’re very new!) and a rooster (Rocky).

      Not any more, now that the cat died last year; was just too sad and can’t get through this again!

      As a kid I had a pet rat. A lab rat, albino! It was very clever, and would always solve the labyrinths I built up for it.

      Yes, I have a cat named Tom (v Original!) and as we are in the process of buying a bigger house my daughters have plans for guinea pigs, rabbits, a dog, chickens….the list goes on. They might get a Rabbit!

      No 🙁 I wish I had a dog, but I just don’t have the time to look after a pet. A dog, in particular, would mean I would have to be at home a lot to feed it and bring it for walks. Because I’m so busy in work and travel to different countries very often, it wouldn’t be fair for me to own a dog since I’d be leaving it on its own so often.

      Someday I will get one though. I just need more free time.
