Do you have any pets to play around while not coding ?

Here is mine as a puppy:

I have Coco (foreground) and Ping which I like to mess around with. Coco likes to play with toys such as toy furry mice, or sticky things that go on the walls; as well as hiding in cardboard boxes and things like that. Ping likes to watch. Like with all Siamese cats they are very noisy and you can have a "conversation" with them. It was a one in a million to get a picture of them like that. ;)

I also have a large comet goldfish; "Fish". Who is quite a character, unfortunately I don't have a good picture of him. But he's an odd Fish. We have to turn the filter off at night so he can sleep underneath it and he knows when it's feeding time. He recognises me and likes to chase my finger as I move it across the glass on the tank.

Yes, the pythons are locked up pretty well :) Then again, this species of python (regius) will never get really huge, certainly not enough to attack a cat which is basically a ball of claws with fur.

Yes, one male cat.

I'm afraid that one day he is going to stamp down notebook's keyboard if I go away for few minutes to do something other. :lol:

Fortunately, nothing happens till now.

Edit:

Code: Select all

Do you have any pets to play around while not coding ?
Ah! While not coding... Well, playing is fun.

1 Silky Terrier mixed with a chowowa.

She is small and some times helps fixes problems and also causes distractions.

My parent's cat pissed on my father notebook once. And it died :( - the notebook of course :).
The second notebook was killed by the rain pouring through the open window :P.

What will happen to his third notebook I can only imagine.

7!!!! Whoa.

My parents Bearded Collie often comes to stay when they are away. If I'm up late coding, I some times get 'told' to turn the light out... :lol:

Would like to have my own pet, but I don't have the time to properly look after one full time. :(
