@missy @lyxzen & @rambo have assigned plenty of homework, but I have been very naughty and haven't turned any in! So I've been going through the list, and finishing the assigned homework.
"Write about your pet(s)!"
I have such a happy lil' family, and I am so grateful that I was blessed with such characters. Growing up, I consistently had new pets because my Grandmother owns the Oregon Primate Rescue (yes, MONKEYS!) and my Mother was a Dog-Breeder. But, when I was 18 and moving out on my own, I found my first pet, and I named her Peaches. (A.k.a. Princess Peach) Here is a photo of her as a tiny lil' baby 😭
She is a tortoiseshell calico and she is now almost 4 years old. I found her on Craigslist, from a woman who had a litter of kittens for sale. She is now all grown-up! *cries*
*streeeeeettttttchhhh*
And then, a year and a half after I adopted Peach, she got outside one night and I couldn't find her- the next morning I found her cuddling with a black cat. 3 months later, she popped out a litter of kittens! 2 Black cats, 2 Orange, 1 White & Grey, and one Calico. I kept the female Calico, and her name is Moose. :)
Peach's 1st litter ^
I love My sweet lil' beebs.

I rescued my pet snake, bubbles, from a person I knew who was not taking care of him properly. He is an albino corn snake. When I took him, he was 2 1/2 feet in length in a tiny 10 gallon tank. He had no water, and no food for months- at least I had never seen water in his tank nor him being fed. It was sad- he was being neglected, so I just went over to that persons house, grabbed his tank and hot-light (which had been constantly turned on for months- you are supposed to have it on during the day, off during the night to give them time to rest) and I packed it into the car and left. That person never contacted me, even though I let them know I took bubbles. They obviously didn't care. I fed him the day I got him, though he could barely eat. I gave him a rat, and he actually stopped in the middle of trying to kill his prey- just to lick water off of the bathtub because he was so exhausted from not eating or drinking in months. Bubbles is now 3 and a half feet long and his home is a 50 gallon tank. He is an active and happy snake now.
My most recent pet is Frangelina Jolie: she is a teenaged beta fish. I say "teenaged" because I bought her from petco when she was a baby beta. Beta's take forever to grow! She has grown a bit but it's been at least 9 months since I bought her and she still is tiny!
You can't see her color very well, but she is turquoise. :) I believe she is female, normally male beta's have brighter colors and bigger fins. I love her anyways ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
That's my happy lil' family!
Hope you enjoyed~
