From Montana about animals inside and out. I never know what is outside. I could be deer, moose, rabbits, grizzly bear, brown bear, cougars and on and on. Inside I have cockapoo, chihuahua and a part siamese cat.

Inside the house - dust rhinos & dust bunnies. Outside the house - Opposums, cats, hawks (Red Tailed, I think), the Coyote Choir sings in the local hills some nights, deer, dogs, rabbits....and I live in So. Calif. suburbia!

Obviously 4 cats inside...Outside, we have swans, geese, and ducks near a pond in the wooded area behind us. Rabbits, squirrels, lots of neighborhood dogs and cats, and we had a woodchuck under our shed for years, but he recently died (I think of old age).We have a bird feeder, but I can't always determine the types of birds we get--the squirrels like it too. We sometimes have some raccoons, possums, and skunks, so you have to be sure the garbage cans are covered tight & locked. And last but not least, as stated above, I'm sorry to say, I do have dust bunnies from time to time (the amount and frequency depends on the computer and my sewing frequency).

WOW! Where do I begin.
No animals inside.
One outside feral male neutered cat.
Daily we are visited by a morning flock of magpies, while the white tail deer are roaming around. The woodpeckers (him and her) tend to check out the trees and ground; the grey squirrel keeps chasing them away. The woodchucks have gone underground with the groundhogs for the winter. Every other day we get a bunch of quail forging for food. Last year we had a series of four eagles picking at a dead white tail deer for about a week. Racoons and skunks have parted for the winter, but will certainly be back this spring. Oh yes, the cat brought us some gophers lately but hasn't been able to catch that little rabbit we saw a few weeks ago. I think he is eating the mice because he hasn't wanted much food lately. During the spring and summer the turkeys and peacocks show up on occasion. Wildlife....never ending supply. Love it all!!!

Ok inside we have 1 black Lab, 1 Beagle/?, 1 Black & white Tuxedo cat, 1 Blue Front Amazon, and 1 Senegal Parrot. Outside we have 1 American Quarter Horse, 1 Paint Horse, 2 pygmy goats, with more due in about 3 weeks, 30 chickens, 20 quail, 1 tabby cat, approx. 9 neighbours dogs whom visit daily, oh and almost forgot 1 DH. Lots of birds, squirrels, chipmunks, mice, moles, opossums, fox, raccoons, coyote, bears a little way up the mountian, dear and i think that covers it.

Inside: My DD and her fiance's mutt is living with us until their wedding in June when DD and mutt will move to Cincy. Usually don't mind having him around except when he is barking incessantly like he is this evening.

Outside: Our Border Collie, assorted squirrels, groundhogs, an occasional fox, and coyotes.
