After much begging, grovelling and general sucking up, my niece and step-daughter are getting new pets tomorrow.
Step-daughter,14, is getting 2 turtles, either Maps or Cooters we haven't decided which yet.
Niece,14, is getting a Whites Tree Frog. The tree frog is a lovely pearl green colour.
I'm also gonna be replacing my beloved Ancistrus Triradiatus (sucker catfish) that passed away last week at the ripe old age of 21 with a baby Marble Catfish.
My missus will still not let me have a royal though  but oddly will let me build a holding pen so i can get a couple of aylesbury ducks again.
I might start charging entry to my flat so people can see my zoo!! |

At the moment, we have:
A cat,
3 G.A.L.S
3 cornsnakes
goldfish
we did have hamsters (RIP Arctic and Professor Lugovoy) and 3 other ones.
3 dogs: 2 poodles and a rotty.
So we'll be adding 2 turts, a frog and another Catfish.
and possibly the ducks, i'll find out definitely about those today.
I thought i had more animals, but i'm forgetting that the 'grandchildren' no longer live with me. |

So far i've just said "I'm gonna be getting one at some point" and that's it, so at least when i just get one and she goes mad, i'll remind her that I did tell her i was going to.
Anyway, quick piccys of new recruits into the home that I call 'The Loony Bin':
This is my step-daughter Amys' turtle, it's a River Cooter.
She only got one today as she didn't know what other one to get, so no doubt she'll have made her mind up and we'll get another 2 tomorrow.
She's called it Chee Chee
This is my niece, Nicoles, frog. It's a Whites Tree Frog, at the moment it's colour is a nice green, but it can change shades from blues, Greens and browns apparently.
She's called it 'Mr Dave Ming Chang'.

| They both look great. Is the turtle fully grown or is it still little? |

The turtle has a front to back shell measurement of nearly 1 1/2 (ish) but should grow to somewhere around 5-6 inches.
The froggy has a nose torump measurement of about 3 1/2 inch, and apparently will grow to around 5-6 inches as well. |

That's what I said, i also tried the argument of 'they're allowed another pet, why can't I?' (childish, but can be effective).
The OH said that i've already got snakes, so i told her i already had them, so they don't count.
She said "hmmmm".
So it looks like i'm breaking the barrier down, it's slow but getting there!! |
