Whatever you end up getting - just as long as you remember that you'll be the one looking after it - we've got a house full of 'abandoned' pets - ranging from fish, to finches to African land snails (actually, I quite like them (snails, that is) - if you forget to feed them they just go into 'hibernation' and only come out again when the next lettuce leaf appears ) - and guess who's doing the cleaning out, feeding etc?

Should you tire of the effervescent company of your land snails, please refer to the 'Jollof' post - link below, which might give you an idea.

How cruel
I could never do that to them - we have bonded, you see...
Anyway, I think you'd only need one for a family of 8 - they're huge! Would also prove a bit chewy, I imagine
They do combine a lot of advantages: they don't talk, don't smell, definitely don't run away - possibly not very cuddly though

This thread reminded me of a joke.

From a Cat's Daily Diary:
Day 483 of my captivity. My captors continue to taunt me with bizarre little dangling objects. They dine lavishly on fresh food while I am forced to eat dry cereal.
The only thing that keeps me going is the hope of escape and the mild scolding I get from ruining the occasional piece of furniture. Tomorrow I may eat another houseplant.
Today my attempt to kill my captors by twisting around their feet while they were walking almost succeeded; must try this at the top of the stairs.
In an attempt to disgust and repulse these vile oppressors, I once again induced myself to vomit on their favorite chair; must try this on their bed.
Decapitated a mouse and brought them the headless body in an attempt to make them aware of what I am capable of and to try to strike fear into their hearts. They only cooed and condescended about what a good little cat I was.
Hmmmm, not working according to plan.
There was some sort of gathering of their accomplices. I was placed in solitary confinement throughout the event. However, I could hear the noise and smell of food. More importantly, I overheard that my confinement was due to my power of "allergies". I must learn what this is and how to use it to my advantage.
I am convinced the other captives are flunkies and maybe snitches. The dog is routinely released and seems more than happy to return. He is obviously a half-wit.
The bird, on the other hand, has got to be an informant. He speaks with them regularly, and I am certain he reports my every move. Due to his current placement in the metal room, his safety is assured.
But I can wait; it is only a matter of time.
