Capt'n Jack

    LoL… so I have this pale blue parakeet named Capt'n Jack, I suprised my mother one day by bringing him home with me. Just shortly after my Bandit died I was longing for a pet (we had not yet adopted Mali) so I ran down to the pet-shop and started browsing. There he was... the smallest parakeet in the bird-tank. All the other birds piling on top of him "picking on him" basically. I told the pet-store worker I wanted "that one!" so they scooped him up and I brought home my very own Capt'n Jack Sparr...er... Parakeet... :D :D

    He's a little crazy though, he climbs up onto the cage's top and then just... lets go. O.O haha... anybody else got some crazy feathered friends?

    Mali is a big sister! ![](images/smilies/eek.png "EEK!")

    Love your parakeet's name, guess you are a fan of the movie. I have 2 cats, one 17 & one 10 yrs. old.

    Something similar was at a big dog show in my area a few years ago. The one I ran my dog through had an A-frame and tunnels as well as the jumps and tire. It was a blast!

    I enjoyed the video, whilst in Kefalonia snorkelling i saw several Octopi , i think they're fascinating creatures. The ones i saw stayed very still, don't think i'd of been so keen if one had shot towards me.

    Congrats on your engagement! I know Courtney Thorne-Smith had her B and her other dog in the wedding. I think B's look great in tuxedos;-)

    @Maya: If you're living in Holland, you need a Friesian!!! :D I have the most wonderful friesian, her temperment is amazing. She's not even 3 yet but she is just so sweet and gentle!! But, do keep us updated. I've had horses since i was 3 and they are a huge part of my life. I couldnt be without them even though im not as involved in the horse world as i once was!! P.S. I have some photos from a show over here in the UK with shires in their traditional plaits and tack if anyone is interested in seeing them. Its just amazing!! Yes!! I love to see the pictures!!! I like the Friesian horses but it's not a breed wich can used for lots of things, they are to special i think :D I like the Friesian for shows and as a barouche horse (is it a good word?) I once ride a Friesian and it's different with riding a normal or western horse. They make larger steps and it's very comfortable riding! A friend of us breeds the Friesian :D @moetmum: That sounds exciting, hope it all goes to plan. Our neighbouring farmer used to breed shire horses, they don't breed now but still have loads of horses. They go to loads of shows, they were sponsored by a local brewery. The horses are fascinated by the basenjis, and always want to come and have a look! the b's aren't keen when they snort at them though. I have never heard of a horse milking farm before!! Wow!!! If it was a little bit near Holland, I really would come over to met you and take a look at the shires next door :D:D We're don't going to live in Holland :D In Germany they have also some very nice breeds Hannoveraan, holsteiner (i don't know the english names…0
