First Pet

By (user no longer on site) OP over a year ago

Mine was a Russian Hamster called 'Fatso' (from Casper the Ghost) I was aged 12

Id had family pets before but nothing i could call my own, family pets we had were mainly Budgies (had about 10 in total)

Ive just got a fish tank for my daughter and spent a while reading about animal care. She also had to look after the nursery goldfish so feel its a good start, plus i dont need pet insurance if anything goes wrong

We had a cat, poor bugger was called Manky. My Mum named him not knowing what it meant just liking and my Dad never enlightened her. A neighbour finally asked a few years later why she was mean enough to call her cat that. My Dad slept on the sofa for a week!!

A tortoise though I can't remember what happened to it as it was a very long time ago.

I remember putting it in a cardboard box in the airing cupboard to hibernate. Perhaps it's still there !!

I had a gerbil. Vince had a spaniel.

Not telling you the names as it's a typical security question and I'm paranoid that you might try and steal my inheritance from my long-lost rich Ugandan uncle.

Awww

Especially dogs. They have such a personality about them. I don't think my first pet of a tortoise cut the mustard really. But my first dog. Omg, I was completely devastated when she died.
