Do you have any pets?
I have one dog. Her name is Esmerelda. She's a German Shepherd/Husky mix.

One pupper at the moment, a border collie named Skye. When I'm in a better situation I plan to have cats again, and another pupper

I love that name!! Super cute!

I have a fifteen-year-old cat named Christy.

A dachshund named Peanut. My roommate has 3 dogs that I also consider mine. Their names are Josie, Sami and Izzy.

Nice, Krissy!

I've had pets in the past but currently don't have one because of the high cost in my apartment complex (a couple hundred down payment plus at least a hundred a month added to rent we can already barely afford). I've debated looking into a service animal (I can't smell so it'd be a must if I ever live on my own) but... Cost of supplies would still be high -.-

I'm sorry that it's so expensive.

Eh, 'tis life sometimes. If I could have one though, probably a cat or a dog would be the most helpful for my smelling issue. For funsies I've also imagined having a pet skunk (because if they've had their scent glands removed already it's legal to have one as a pet here and it'd be funny to see people's reactions).

Pets I've had in the past:
-Two dogs (one was a collie-golden retriever mix female who was very sweet and had to deal with a two year old trying to ride her regularly; the other was a purebred golden retriever who was the size of a seven year old human at only two months of age and wouldn't take a bath unless I was physically in it with him xD)
-Birds (technically had one as a really little kid I don't remember and two when I lived with my grandmother- she claimed one was mine even though they were just her birds really in my head)
-Fishies (also from grandma's house. we had a huge aquarium in the entryway x3)
