Yes, I am even scared of little kittens, make fun of me all you want. {XD}
I used to have a Red-Tailed Boa Constrictor that was just over 9 feet long
This is the best thing ever. A small, fluffy kitten is terrifying, but a boa constrictor... totally kosher. {XD} Surprised to hear it's a boy, though. Usually only females get that long.
I just have two indoor cats. Nothing fancy, just a couple DSHs from the shelter. Sergeant Dustmop (well gee, that sounds familiar) is my little boy. He's crippled and adorable. I also have a little girl by the name of Bandit because he needed a friend. I've had them for almost 4 years now, ever since they were 3- and 5-months-old, respectively.
We have a massive clowder of feral cats that live outside the house, too. I've already taken the liberty of getting the local shelter to TNR the females. I've been taming and feeding them, and naming them as I can pet them. :3
There's a Mama (naturally), Tink, Shadow, Peanut, Pickles, Commander Boots, and Spock. Best cat army.
My dad has a dog, a mixed breed with no real defining features of any breed except Rottie. But I don't consider it to be a family pet; she's more of a nuisance. They call her "Porky" for pretty obvious reasons.
