My name is Marie Paduchak. I started this website to talk about my pets and share experiences with you about the pets I own. My first love is for my two cats, Roxy and Spencer. Roxy is a blue tabby about 15 years old and her playmate Spencer(A Maine Coon) is approximately 3 years old now in our years. They are great fun and I love to play with them. Maine Coons are supposed to be able to swim, I must admit I am curious, but don’t think Spencer would like it much if I threw him in the pool to test out this theory. He’s already very shy and hates men…Â

I added Tropical Freshwater fish to my pets this past winter, and so I plan to talk about them here as well. I only have a ten gallon aquarium righ now, but my goal is to get a larger aquarium (35-40 gal) in the fall before school. My favorite aquarium pet is Comet the snail. We got Comet when she was only the size of a dime, and now she is the diameter of about half the diameter of a baseball. We also have Danios, Raspboras, an emerald Catfish, and Tetras.Â

Hey, so why should you listen to me when it comes to pets. My dad and mom have alot of experience when it comes to raising dogs and cats. I admit the fish part is pretty new to all of us. Both my parents said they flushed alot of fish, goldfish mostly. They didn’t have nice little tropical schooling fish like I have right now. The only deaths we have had have been snails and they tend to have to be replaced quite frequently. We did learn one trick here and that was to get the smallest snail possible so that they can grow into your aquarium.I plan to post articles here about cats, freshwater tropical fish and dogs.Â

We also have books on dog training, cat training, and tropical fish so stay tuned as we get those put together and add pictures to our website.
