Well, check me into the BPO asylum, too. Currently we have 11 cats (4 hurricane refugees, 1 foster, 1 hurricane refugee and 5 of our own) and 6 dogs (2 fosters, one who will probably remain permanent; and 4 of our own).

Dogs are (from big to small):

Colle/Golden Retriever mix: Oasis (ours)
Female Red Merle Aussie: Trina (hurricane refugee)
Australian Cattle Dog: Mia (foster-to-adopt??)
Male red Merle Aussie: Rocko (ours)
Beagle: Buster Brown (ours)
Brain Damaged Australian Cattle Dog mix: Bindi (formerly foster, now ours because she is not adoptable)

I'd list the cats, but this isn't SCO (Spoiled Cats Only) so I won't bore you.

Hey jjfritsche ,
You sound like our house some times. Last mouth we had 10 foster cats besides our own animals. I know for us it's something we enjoy to do and also have a hard time saying no to a new foster, knowing that they need a place to stay.

No?? What's that mean. Is that some kind of foreign language or something???

I think it is and I'm not good at foreign languages ;D. Maybe that's why I don't know it. I'm kind of glad I don't live where you do, I could just imagine what my house would look like. lol

You guys are great!  I knew I couldn't be the only person who wants to fill the house with animals!  My husband cannot believe how many animals some of you all have.  He is getting nervous because I am becoming more inspired to add to our family-once we move out to the country (hopefully within the next year).  I would love to foster cats and dogs but I don't think I would be able to part with them...

In the famous words of Jimmy Buffett, "If we weren't all crazy, we would go insane."   :D

Welcome to BPO, land of the wacky pet owners!  I'm owned by Ranger, a 10 mo. old Greater Swiss Mountain Dog and Tigger, the 8 year old cat. 

Post pictures!  We love 'em!

Welcome Aboard Binky!
This is a GREAT place to spend some time.
Except, I'm not CRAZY!
But everyone around here is!
And I'm not paranoid. I KNOW everyone is out to get me!
Ahh...I feel so much better since I gave up HOPE!

This is a great place for us crazies!  My friends all confirmed that I went over the edge into craziness this past weekend when I brought a foster dog home to share space & love with Casper (2 1/2 y/o Kuvasz), Bella (9 m/o Great Pyrenees), Lucy (4 m/o Pyr/Border collie mix) & Chessie the cat (2 1/2 y/o)!   Yeah for us crazies!!!  My foster is Pearl (who should really be called "Mini-Pearl") & is a 6 m/o Pyr. ;D
