I love animals too but I don't live in a place where I could take care of many. It wouldn't help to save a lot from the pound then not be able to give each one the attention they deserve. I just have one cat right now

Normal, but don't start to hoard them.

As long as you can care for them, have as many as you want.

If you are able to afford them, I'd say go for it. I love pets, as well. But they can be a handful, which is why I only have a dog and cat.

As long as you have the time, money, and means to take care of them pets are wonderful! The only thing you want to worry about is becoming that crazy pet person who has more cats then floor space and smells like pee.

I would love to do something like that. Of course, you'd have to be careful with the 'problem' animals.

Sounds like a great idea.

If you run out of food you could eat them.

Yay! I love animals. We have dogs, ferrets and a tarantula :)

Good idea, just don't give any cats to the people on here. There are a couple of cat fuckers, they are perverts and disgusting....wait...you're not one of them are you?

Sure it's normal, just make sure you can take care of them.:) I love animals too, someday I plan on having about 3 cats, 1 dog and who knows how many fish, insects and arachnids. I just have 1 cat right now.

Move up to children.

I dont have any pets but I love them! When I was a kid I would always ask for one... never got one. I want to get a lil pup when I finally have my own home. Lucky you. :)

Only ever owned a hamster :( I think I'll get a dog when I can provide for one.

Maybe you could make a living off of it or do it as a hobby on the side. Help other people with pet problems. That way you get to see animals all the time. Or even try to find a local pet store and work there. I'm sure it would satisfy you even a little bit?

Gotta go out on a limb and say no. An insatiable urge to fill your life with limitless amounts of anything is abnormal.

Also, just something to consider: All the people who become animal hoarders are in denial about how many they can care for. They'll be like, "Just one more... okay, one more..." and they won't realize a year later they have like sixty. They'll only realize they have a problem when they are forced by family or friends to step back and look at the bigger picture.

My grandmother was a cat hoarder, and it was heartbreaking because she wasn't rich, and the food costs put her into poverty. Not saying this would happen to you, but maybe you should examine why you want all of these animals? What need are you trying to fulfill in your life?

Hope this helps.

You can have plenty of pets by doing this:
1. own a Gameboy Advance
2. have a Pokemon Cartridge
3. catch all the Pokemons
Problem solved.. :P

Honestly, I have 2 Dogs, a pair of house lizards and a colony of ants... I really want to own a cat but most of the people I know says its not good to own a cat if you have an asthma. I also tried hamsters and albino rats. And also a stag beetle and dragonflies, insects dies easily I don't know how to treat them well.

It starts with one till soon you have a kennal.
