Age: 15
How she came into my life: she was a gift from my grandparents for my sister's second birthday. She came from a shelter.
Pastimes: Taking cat naps, looking out the window, sleeping in dirty towels, hiding my pens and pencils, chasing her tail and things that aren't there, running back and forth in the middle of the night, meowing for no reason, getting pet, pretending to hunt, laying on paper, playing with her favorite teaser toy.
Pet peeves: Having to put up with uncivilized dogs because as a cat "she is far superior", snow, the rabbit because a prey animal who is bigger than she is annoys her.

Pastimes: Patrolling his tank, attacking the filter, inspecting his gravel, hiding in his favorite plant, chasing his food, following me, playing with bubbles, building bubble nests (he is a master bubble nest architect), flaring at me, biting me.
Pet peeves: Bloodworms. Just because every other betta fish eats them doesn't mean Squirt likes them.


Species: Hamster
Type: Syrian
Name: Ninja
Age:Unknown
Nicknames: The Energizer Hamster, the Teeth (no he doesn't bite, I started calling him this name because he chews a lot), fat fur monster, Mr. Hamster, little man.
How he came into my life: It was a few months after Pipsqueak passed away, and I wanted to have another hamster. I adopted him from my local animal shelter.
Pastimes: Running in his ball, running in his wheel, chewing his cage bars, running, running, oh and did I mention running? He also likes getting treats, watching what is going on outside his cage, and making nests with toilet paper. He likes have his head between his ears scratched.
Pet Peeves: Being unable to escape his cage (I have super escape-proofed it), doors, not being the center of attention all of the time, the round green treats in his treat mix.
