Do you have any pets besides your dogs? What kind? Did they come before or after you got your dog?

I grew up with cats. Only time I have ever gone without my opinionated furballs was when I went to College and first moved into my apartment. My CURRENT two cats, actually came with the dogs.

Titan was born into the house after we had adopted Riley. Found Titan's mom on the side of the road and no luck finding her owner. Didnt know she was pregnant until about a month later. Faith I found in a parking lot with her brother when they were about 4 weeks old. Someone had just left them in a parking space and walked away. Busy parking lot and me a bleeding heart scooped them up. Faith is still with us but her brother was rehomed after my sister in law tried to kill him for "killing" her cat. Her cat had undianosed bladder stones that were made known shortly after we moved in for a bit.

So my two current cats have always had dogs around with us.

Birds and fish, and I live with 3 cats but they aren't mine so I don't count them. They are more like roommates.

I've had birds since I was about 9, so they definitely came before the dog except for my recent two, my eclectus and my pionus. I have 5 birds(budgie, conure, bourke's parakeet, zebra finch, cockatiel) that live at my parents house. They are kind of the 'family birds' so they stay there, the cockatiel we've had for 11 years already(he just turned 24 years old!) plus they are so tiny and mostly untame I would be afraid to risk having them here with the cats.

I have two cats, Buddy and Nikki. They will be 5 this summer.
At the time I got Gunner, I had three cats, but Kitty passed 4 months after Gunner came home.

Buddy hates Gunner and does his best to avoid him. But if he gets too close, Buddy will swat the living daylights out of Gunner (who thinks it's
fun ).
Nikki likes him, and tolerates it when he licks her. She's not afraid of Gunner, like Buddy is.
Gunner shows not an ounce of aggression towards them. In fact, he tries to play with them but to no avail.
