How long have you had a pet living not dead

[takethecastle57]

Howdy folks and biscuits,


I've had my Goldfish and Plecostomus since 2009 and for $4.99 each I did not expect them to grow and thrive so long and yes they are both the Most Healthy pair of animals that I have seen !

Sam the Goldfish is 18 inches long and Pete the Plecostomus is over 2 Feet long and they live in a 29 gallon glass tank and feed them Ziegler Spiraline Algae & Veggie Sinking Wafers since I've had them .

So the floor is open to all to share and comment (please be nice in your statements).

In kindergarten for mothers day I was allowed to have first pick of the litter of my best friends cats kittens. She was a wonderful, loving pet for our family for many years, I think she lived until I was in junior college, so probably about 14 years perhaps?

I think my oldest pets were Spot and Paterson.. They were both 17 I think!! Meow!!
