 We all love our furry friends as the multiple threads here prove. Whether we refer to them as pets or companion animals, they're part of the family and our everyday life.
What pets do you have right now? Tell us about them. I have kitties and a bunny living with me. 
What pets would you like to have? Maybe you'd like a horse but live in an apartment in the city so that's just not practical. Or maybe you'd like a kitty but you do not think that your dog would agree lol
 If you could have any companion animal, which would you like and why? Me, I'd like a horse, a donkey and a pony so they'd be good company for each other, and I could ride them when I wanted. A sheep and a cow would be natural lawn mowers and fertilizer producers. And, I adore deer so I'd just love to have one live with me.
No magical creatures have been included in this poll (although I'm keeping a close watch on that rat) because this is to discuss what non-magical creatures live with us, or that we'd like to have live with us.
You can choose multiple options from each question.

What pets do you have right now? My house is basically a zoo. We have so many pets! Well, at my dad's house, I only have two cats and some fish--not a good combination, if you think about it, but it works. One of them, Feisty, is absolutely terrified of people, including me. But the other one, Ebony, is adorable, loving, and so completely sweet  At my mom's house I have four cats, a dog, some rats, and a rabbit. One 11 year old cat, one very, very fat orange tabby cat, and two little kittens-brother and sister. Then there's our dog, who I actually really don't like, but well, my mom does. My sister has a few rats (not evil, actually adorable). And, I have a rabbit named NEVILLE. Yay! He's so cute and sweet!
If you could have any companion animal, which would you like and why? I desperately want a horse of my own. I've been riding for about 9 years now, but always have to depend on other people's horses. It would be so nice to just say, hey, I'm going for a ride, I'll be back in an hour at any time of day. I also would really like to have a turtle, simply because they're funny and cute

At my moms house I have 9 cats, and a dog...and we think there's some racoons staying in the garage but we don't talk about them  At my dad's we have two dogs. The cats names are *takes a deep breath* Harley, Lily-James, Thackary Binx, Piper, Holly, Julius, Delilah, Charlie, and Mama. The dog's names are Jillie, Mona, and Summer. I, also, desperately want a horse. I've been riding for nearly 10 years and I ride the school horses that they have at the barn. They are wonderful horses and I love them, but I want to have that special bond with one of the horses that my friends have. Oh, and I would like more dogs...especially at my mom's cause Jillie hates me. I want my own dog. Jillie is my mom's.

Currently I have a Dog. She's a 10 month old beagle, and I love her! She's awesome! She's very spastic, hyper, cute, and awesome!! 
I would, however, love to have a kitty! They're soo cute, and would be great to cuddle with, much easier than with a dog.

 hey! great poll!!!
i have:
-a dog, named Kiara, who is my lovable fila. she lives in my grandparents farm as we cant really keep a dog of her size, but since i got there a lot... and she loves to race with me! she always wins tho  .
-a goldfish named Fred, who has survived longer then any other fish ive ever had. (i used to have one called Cleo recently, but she died... RIP)
-a bird called Kiko, named by my little cousin lol. who is just a canary but i love him. he chirps a lot.
i really really wish i had:
-a horse!!!!!!!!! i ride, too, since i was 5 years old, but dont have any of my own. i love them tho!!!! it would be so great to have one... i agree with you jaimedanser and phoenix_226!! and people think i would want a pony, but i dont. i dont get along with them very well. they are so stubborn. and the ones ive had experience with def. didnt like me either...  i just really prefer horses.
-a bunny. they are so cuuutte!!! i almost got one at the animal shelter once but my parents said no.  poor bunny.
-a kitty, but i am allergic to cats.... and anyway i am a dog person, but i would like a cat too.
-a hamster: same reason as the bunny. my friend's had babies once, she offered me one and i even took it home before my mom freaked out and screamed "get that rat out of the house!!!!!" i gave her the *evil stare of doom* before returning it to my friend. really, call a hamster "rat"?!
-a pig!!!! i love piggies! and baby pigs are the cutest things in the world. but if my mom doesnt let me have a hamster, imagine her letting me have a pig! 
-a ferret! i love those!!!!! they are awesome. i have had a virtual one LOOL so i guess that counts as experience as an owner? haha i just think they rock too.
LOL, phoenix_226!! your cats sound funny ha!

Aww, I'm sorry about your cat
I have two cats, and one dog. The cats are named Peanut and Cali - Peanut is very smart; she can open almost all doors, and can meow so loudly she can always get her way. She also loves teasing the dog by playing in his water bowl while he's watching her (but he doesn't dare do anything about it, 'cause she'll scratch him)
Cali... is very cute, somewhat fat, loves sitting on my lap, but is kinda dumb, and a bit grumpy sometimes.
My dog is named Marco. He's about a year old (we think), and pretty large, but still acts like a puppy. He's a pain sometimes - he'll steal food from the kitchen whenever he can, and he's always chewing things up (like my favorite shoes ) He chases his own tail a lot, which is hilarious, but has yet to learn that if he catches it, he shouldn't try to bite it
I would really like to have a horse, because I love riding (even though I've only done it a couple times), but that's not going to happen for many years, at least. I'd also like more cats, but my parents don't agree!
