If all the animal-themed things in your home were real, what animals would you own?

Ducks. The feature on some tiles surrounding the aga and I have a collection of wooden ones in the conservatory. We inherited some mallards with the house but they multiplied quite quickly so I stopped clipping their wings and let them live as nature intended, some got eaten by the fox and others went off to the river.
Horses. Loads of paintings or photos of the horses and ponies we have owned over the years + a few horse themed trophies. My equine owning days are sadly now over.
Dogs. Several paintings or photos of the three border terriers we've owned including a painting of the one who takes me for walks every day, he's in pride of place in the kitchen

giraffe (just like GG13's)
hippo
rhino

Basically a good set of dust collectors, which I assume kids will throw in the skip when the time comes.

Buffalo. Horns, sculpted in long necked birds.

2 geese, a peacock, many sheep, 9 fish and Costa Rican geckos.

About 150 owls (mine), lots of farm animals, dogs, bears, dragons, rabbits etc (granddaughter’s toys)

Oh, and an Canadian moose head trophy

Good grief, I think I’d should stop buying ornaments!

I don’t have much in the way of animal themed stuff apart from this glass worktop saver/chopping board. I’ve had a life long love of cows.

I love the face on this brown and white cow. Don’t tell anyone but but I stroke her head while I’m waiting for the kettle to boil 😊

Two elephants brought back from Gambia by my sister, a tiny kangaroo brought back from Australia by my daughter and two cows bought by me because the classic caravan we bought had two cow decals on the roof put there by the previous owner. The elephants are wooden, the kangaroo ceramic and the cows are a salt and pepper set.

owls, owls and more owls. i've collected owls for over 30 years. friends and family have given me owls for birthdays and christmas too. i haven't counted them recently but i think i have well over 100!

Loads of hedgehogs and a horse.

Cats,
Dogs,

There’s something about hares isn’t there?😃

Have you read the book Raising Hare by Chloe Dalton? It's a delight!!

Thanks for the tip 😃

Downstairs I have various birds, a duck, harvest mouse, giraffe, zebra, highland cow x 2 , cat, dog and bear- and upstairs dogs, horse, fox, ram, cat and owl. Oh and of course teddy bears. I'm not cluttered although it sounds like it!!

Ziplok You really DO love animals.
Witzend 40kg each!

😅, yes, and I forgot the rhino and antelopes 😂😂.

Oh, and does the dragon on my Chinese rug count? 🤔😁

Most definitely. Dragons are real!

Exactly my thoughts too Flippenheck 🤣

2 kingfishers, about 2 dozen small birds, a squirrel, 3 parrots, 5 doves, a few chickens, a dozen geese, a frog, 3 cats, a hare, 2 elephants, a whole flock of swallows, 3 rabbits, a sheep, a cow, a pig. A lot are in pictures and a couple on mugs. Birds outweigh all else.

Cows, cats and an otter. Couldn’t bear to eat a foil wrapped chocolate cow that my son gave me. It’s been standing on my dresser for years, we dread to think what it’s like under the ‘cow’ foil but it’s still fine from the outside.
I have another large china cow, a present from my daughter, on the sitting room mantelpiece and a lovely china Dunoon mug from the cat range. The otter a small ceramic one my Grandson bought for me when he was very young.

A giraffe as it is the drawing left to me by grand daughter who has now emigrated with her parents and sister to Australia ! She adores giraffes so I gave her an adopted one for Christmas !
I would have to keep it at the allotment though !! 🦒
