Hey there everyone! I've a Brazilian red back tarantula I call Vasili Zaitsev, after Jude Law's character in the movie Enemy At The Gates. Very Happy

Do you have other pets? Do tell us about it!

Hi there Gina, welcome to Pet Shed. Thanks for joining our forum! Smile

Like most people, I was also scared at first but I eventually overcame my fear after I let a friendly tarantula crawl in my arm during one of my trips to the zoo.

There are tarantulas that are dangerous but the one I have is cool. Smile

Watch out for Vasili's picture. And do keep posting. Smile

my pets are cockroaches. i'm about three cockroaches away from having a house like 'joe's apartment'. not really, i clean when i can so having some cockroaches is part of my busy lifestyle.

Whoa! Now that I don't like. No offense meant but cockroaches creep me out. I can't imagine having one as a pet.

Cockroaches for pets? That's the weirdest thing I've heard in a long while.

i guess cockroaches are okay for pets.. as long as they're clean! so do you bathe them once in a while, too? Laughing

cockroaches as pets or cockroaches as pest? i'll go for which sound best..

if i didn't have a dog already, i'd probably get a pet chameleon. Very Happy

i think it would be fun to watch them change colors. Wink

Well I have a beagle whom I call Wesley, a Persian cat called Brandy, and an Albanian horse named Prince Edward. I spend a lot of time with them and I love it! My husband and I take turns taking care of them.
