Okay, they're olde tyme cocks, like ... poultry, but still!

Last weekend we went to the annual Cluck and Quack Club sale, and I found some CUTE STUFF!





This is not a chicken. This is 'Big', our barn cat. She showed up in our shed a few years ago, in the dead of winter with six little kittens. She was very growly and protective, and we had a heck of a time catching those kitties! Once it got to below minus 30C she decided that yeah, okay, you can catch me naow. She's been sweet and lovely ever since. And yes, she's fixed now, so no more bbs.



This is 'Willow', one of our house cats. The people who owned her moved out of their apt, and left her there. The landlord called our store to see if we could take her. We don't 'do' adult cats, because we just don't have the room, but hubby fell in love with her, so now she lives with us! She has the GRUMPIEST face, but is the sweetest, most laid back cat evah.



Finally, a cock, as promised! This little guy (and girl) are OMG so fuckin' small! They are barely six inches tall. When he crows, it sounds like he's a very heavy smoker. He is also FULL of attitude, so we named him Goliath.



Jimmy MacElroy havin' a sunbath.



Our bunnies 'Bun bun' and 'Sprinkles'. Believe it or not, they aren't related. Bun bun was dropped off by someone who didn't want her anymore and Sprinkles has some sort of weird eye-cateract-thing and was about to become snake food. (hee! I typed SNAPE by mistake!!)



I call this pair the ALFs, for obvious reasons. They're Silkie chickens, for those of you keeping score at home, but i'm quite sure they're part muppet.



Mom and babies! NOM NOM NOM. They make the cutest cheeping sounds!!



Not a cock, but a DRAKE! Okay, now I want to name them Drake and Josh! Hee! These guys are SO DAMN CUTE! And i didn't get a great pic of it, but they are the most amazing irridescent green!



A shot of the 'Barn Gang' chowing down. (looks like Poppins is about to chow down on Snippet's face.)



Snippets MySpace pic.

Hmm....I had a couple more pics to post, but eljay is being a biatch. Anyhoo, this is probably more cocks than I should put in one post anyway.

Cheers! <3

I'm not sure if they'd be aggressive or not - I know Kangaroos can be - but they're HUGE, and would definitely do some damage. They're pretty standard in petting zoos over here, and get fondled by tons of kids on a daily basis, so I'm thinking they wouldn't be too bad :-)

Apparently though, you guys are allowed to keep these:

How cute are they?

They are very cute but completely nocturnal. We've had them in the store before, and all they do is sleep all day. At to that that they have an 'interesting' smell, and they are not the pet for me.

My friend has one and she quite likes it, but ... meh.

I have enough caged indoor pets right now. A hamster, two snakes and three large cages of birds. I'd like something that can live outside and get along with the critters that we have now.
