One dog and a horse, soon to be another one. Both Icelandics, an awesome breed. My dog's a mutt, probably black lab and Karelian bear dog mix. I would love to get a snake or a lizard(especially a beardie) sometime, but it probably will never happen.

I need to add 1 x Horse to mine, too. Wow. Can't believe I'm actually saying that. Went and met her on the weekend, love at first sight.

Now I got yet another hobby to juggle.... at least we got her for geeky reasons! Taking up Jousting and Skill At Arms.

I got this little fellow on my shoulder.


And look what that basterd did to my computer!!!


I'm happy that I got almost all the peices back together. But the 2 up in the right corner is broken.. The good thing there is that I don't use those anyways.

But imagine what he does to my minis! The other day one of my marines good the ride of his life, And now he's afraid of flying.. Won't even get near a drop pod anymore the poor thing.

And I also got 3 dogs, 2 cats and a rabbit.

Kids are a hobby? Or acquiring them is a hobby? >.<

Lacy's an ex-racehorse thorougbred who's been a broody for a long, long time and popped out a couple of foals, her owner passed away so we're going to retrain her into a skill at arms/jousting horse.

Spookily enough she's identical in looks and height and personality to my old horse I had as a teenager, except for her thoroughbred ears, and followed me around like a lamb first time I met her.

The downside is I wanna paint! Haven't painted or played in weeks! Damn hobbies.

I'm actually surprised that dogs are outranking cats, considering the number of felines often appearing in people's miniature painting blogs and the like. Although that might just be the need by cats to sit amongst miniatures or on small pieces of cardboard..

You are not alone
If my cat sees any models that are within smash or jump range he takes it in his mouth and drops it on the floor to just chase it until i hear/see it...

I have 3 Chickens with most unimagniative names ever...
Dianna, Cuckoo and Antoinet. Seriously my grilfriend and her brother cannot name anything.

I wanted: K.F.C, Comrade Stalin and Robot Chicken which are much better names i thought.

We also have a cat that helps me wargame, she sits patiently watching me game and if i'm loosing badley i usually roll a dice her way and she'll roll it for me, she also moves the models round to, but only when and where i tell her, shes a great cat.

Oh man, the first monster I see I'm going to sneak up behind him, whip out my wand, and shoot my magic all over his ass.

The Memphis Sprawl

I have two pugs named Bela and Penny, and two cats named Socks and Niblet. The pugs are way more into destroying fabrics that chewing plastic, which is nice, though when left alone too long they will rip the stuffing out of pillows and blankets. The cats I hate, but my wife had them before we got married, so they stay. They are surly and lazy, but they don't get up on table surfaces, which is a plus. As soon as I resurface my gaming table I'm moving it into the house so it's nice to know the animals won't be on it.
