Putting as a separate post to last topic cause there are 9 pics and didn't want everyone to have to load these ones on top of the other pics. Have reduced file sizes so hopefully you shouldn't have any problems :)

(1) Spot - 4 years old - no we didn't name her, picked her up from a family that could no longer keep her but decided we wouldn't change her name..

You have silkworms and a cat! :-) I'm surprised they made it to cocoon stage. ;-)

Cute dogs! Your daughter is so lucky to have so many pets! :-) Is she a nightmare to the cat?

We've got the silkworms in an old miniature fishtank which sure gets the cast curious but she can't get inside it. Prior to that they were in the old ice cream container and one day when Amy didn't have the lid on properly the cat did manage to down one fat juicy one!

Amy is really good with the cat (Lily) and doens't give her any grief. Our cat must be one of the most patient I have ever seen and no matter how tormented have never seen here bite anyone more than a quick nip, she simply walks away :)

Those silk worms are pretty amazing looking critters

They sort of don't look real, very cute though, like they have a face painted on

Have you got a mulberry tree?

Dogs, cat and fish :thumb

Who gets to look after them all?:)

No mulberry tree in our yard so we just go to all the local parks and can usually find a good supply of leaves and workmates also bring them in.

Usually it's a case of when we go away getting someone we know to housesit!! We stock the cupboards and fridge for them and it's heaps cheaping than arranging boarding for the pets.

Oh and we have a 9 month old girl Jemma also to add to the list of things to look after :)
