This is three of our four current pets. Gulliver, Millie, and Tater. We also have Lolo the cat but getting all four in one picture is a rare occurrence. We have had so many pets just since we have known each other. When we lived in LA we had several more but we could keep some in areas there that would be too cold here. We had a cat named Dexter that I had for almost 20 years. he was big, fat, black, and so beautiful a little old man. He followed us everywhere. Met us as we pulled into the driveway, slept on the bed at night, He died a few years back. We had a frog named Spliff that was the size of a Grapefruit. A Leopard Gecko named Kasimir
Millie and Lolo are little tiny cats even though they are full grown. I found them on the streets of Hollywood and we have had them ever since. They were so malnurished that they never grew any larger than when we found them. Tater came home in a baseball hat the day of the OJ Simpson chase. Gulliver came home from the pound and has been with me longer than even Kevin. They love him so much. His little Tater was a gift to me after another little kitten we got died afew days after we got him. They all miss Dexter. he was the king of the house. I knew Kevin was welcomed into the house when Dexter walked up, rubbed his nose on him, and never left his lap for the next 10 years. Gulliver will always be my big boy. He follows me like a shadow andeven though he is very old and frail he insists on walking room to room following me every minute. When I go out of town on business kevin tells me he sits and looks at the door the whole time I am gone. He's at my feet right now and is my very best friend. He loves me. Kevin had a huge Iguana named Gladys. She was a rescue. He fed her with a bottle and held her like a baby when he did. She was huge and did not like me at all. She would chase me through the house. She slapped her tail on the floor and tried to eat me. The birds liked being with the Iguana in our Vivarium. It was sunny and warm and had a little fountain in it. I miss California but we brought the best part of it with us. Millie, Lolo, Tater, and of course Gully. that I had for 10 years. A Tokay Gecko named Gustav who lived in our garden. A turtle named Shelly, a tarantula named Rosie, and two male Cockatiels named Adam and Steve. Also the four babies we still have and have had for at least 13 to 15 years each. We are a little pack. A family.
