I like this little personal post. It let’s people into your own little world. It’s always nice having a little place we can go to get away from the worries of the world. I personally like going to the zoo and watching the wolves.

Hi Holley. I think it’s interesting that you own so many animals especially snakes and rats. I would be scared of living with them.

Holley, this is all really interesting! All of the pets you own sound amazing and as someone who loves rats, it was very exciting to read that you have six of them. I understand the feeling of not fitting in, but I am very glad that you now have a group of friends that you seemingly really like! I can’t wait to read what you write next.

Holley, I really enjoyed reading a little bit about you. As someone who was never allowed to get a pet, I am fascinated by all the pets you own. Some of them are so unique and interesting, I have never known anyone who owns a madagascar hissing cockroach. I too have felt like I don’t fit in sometimes, but if one are open, they are always able to find people they can relate too, just like you did. Thanks for sharing.

I have many pets too. I currently have 3 chihuahuas, 1 poodle/maltese mix, ball python, rough green snake, 2 Crested geckos, 2 anoles, 4 rats, and 1 quaker parrot.

Dear Holly :

I am shocked by your poem, “Kinda My Thing,” because I think it’s interesting that you own so many animals especially snakes and rats. I would be scared of living with them.

One sentence you wrote that stands out for me is: “I currently own a python, a boa, 4 furry rats, 2 naked rats, 5 mice, 2 cats, 3 dogs, 2 Madagascar hissing cockroaches, a gerbil and a beta fish named Dude.” I think this is shocking because I’ve never heard or read anything about someone owning anything like those other then a zoo.”

Another sentence that I loved was: “For me personally i don’t like to talk about my past or what i’ve been through so i will just leave this here for who i am. An animal lover.” This stood out for me because I like how you enjoy being yourself regardless what others think. It’s cool that you have your pets to keep you company.

Your poem reminds me of something that happened to me. One time I owned a turtle but I had to throw it away because someone told me it would spread diseases.

Thanks for your writing. I look forward to seeing what you write next because your enthusiasm is great. Your positive attitude inspires people to be who they are.

Dear Holley:
Your post is astounding. Is your guardian on board with having that many animals? How do you find time to take care of all those animals? How much does food cost? Where do you keep them? The sentence that stands out for me is: “I currently own a python, a boa, 4 furry rats, 2 naked rats, 4 mice, 2 cats, 3 dogs, 1 hedgehog, 2 Madagascar hissing cockroaches, a gerbil and a beta fish named Dude.” This is unbelievable to me. I can’t imagine having so much responsibility for so many animals.
