I have a big heart for animals. I would care for all of them if I could. But, when does it become animal "hording"?

i'd say as long as you have a big enough space for them all to run around, go for it!

I would say that there is no number of how many is too many. The question is how many are you capible of taking care of both phyically and financially? Pets can add up when you take into account the cost of food and grooming, yearly exams and monthly meds. Also remember to spay or neuter them to help control the pet population and unloved, unwanted animals.

i think some states have laws against how many you canhavew, but im not sure.
but basically make sure you havbe anuf money to pay for them, the food, vet bills, spay/nutering, etc.
also make sure you have anuf room for them to run, enjoy yhtmeselves, and play. also make sure you have enuf time to love and care for them!
