Most of the lesbians I know have pets.
I have a little dog - Chihuahua/French Bulldog mix (I know it sounds like a weird combination, but she's actually pretty adorable).
And, I'm in the process of adopting a cat - as Scottish fold, from a local shelter.

well most of my lesbian friends have atleast one animal. I myself have 5 horses 1 dog 2 cats 2 banty s and 4 ferrets ... I do also own a ranch so that total is more acceptable... lol.. I am also a certified dog trainer so managing my kritters is alot easier for me than most. I love my babies.

I am a huge animal lover, but I must say that I am much more of a dog-person than a cat-person. More specifically, big dogs...you know the really big, lumbering, kinda fat dogs that scare the crap out of your neighbours, but really are just giant puppies who never grew up.

I have a german-shepherd/Collie named Dakota, and two rather fat cats.

My partner has a toy shi-poo and two cats as well.

Carrie:

Just to let you know, my cat goes for walks with me every night without a leash. She just walks along about 3-5 feet from me. The neighbors all stop and stare as we walk along together. When they ask me how I trained her to do that, I reply that all you have to do is give them as much love as they give you.

I have 5 cats in my house, but I also have a large wooded back yard. They spend alot of time out there. I have always loved cats and operated informal rescue in my trailer park

One cat -- and a real power femme she is, too -- allegedly she has a name, but mostly I just call her The Princess.

One rabbit with the run of the condo. More than a match for the cat. Smart enough to open latched screen doors unaided and get books he wants to eat off the third shelf of the bookcase.

Three guinea pigs. As long as they get their hay and their vitamin crunchies, the world could end and they'd still be happy.

I can hosestly say that i don't know a single lesbian with a cat, i know heaps of gay men, but no lesbians.
My cousin and i both keep reptiles and rodents, and my friends all keep dogs or fish or nothing.

I work with companion animals on a daily basess, in some circles it seems I inbody the 'steriotypical' lesbian. I have a love for animals. I also have a dog and work in a place full of cats... what does that say?

Suzanne Westenhoefer, a lesbian comedian, has a CD called "Nothing In My Closet But My Clothes". I found the CD to be side splitting. There's one part called "The Animals". As a pet owner and a lesbian who doesn't take herself toooo serously, I find this so hilarious. It's an older CD - 1997 - but if you've never heard it before, you might want to treat yourself.

Over my lifetime, I've had horses, dogs, cats, fish, and birds. Pets have taught me much, especially about instincts, behavior, and in relationship to their care, kindness and responsibility. I was the "original" horse and other animal whisperer, long before it became popular. I'm down to one cat, right now - a calico. Adopted as a kitten, from a rescue group. No one knew what happened to her biological mother. The selfless woman who took her in when she was only a few days old, bottle fed her every few hours around the clock. I had to keep her separate from the mature, neutered, Dark Sable Havanna cat that I already had, until she matured enough to be able to claim her rightful place in the house. And, wow, did she. She would run on hind legs (like a kangaroo) towards the male cat from behind and jump over him, flying through the air, as if to say "Catch me if you can!" I admire her and love her. She's sweet, playful, even fiesty at times. In the way of a cat, she's taught me a lot about being true to yourself. She's family. She's my friend, my 'lil buddy.
