Goodness....if you hit the JP, you would have the $$ to be able to charter/lease a private jet and take the pet with you. At least that is what I plan. Why have a pet/protector that you leave behind? Just a thought.

I would have to go Jurassic Park on you all and clone a T Rex for a pet.

I gaurantee no one will ever successful rob my house.

If you win the Powerball jackpot, you hire pet nannies for your pets so you can go on trips. Or you get a dog small enough to travel with you. No stinky kennels for little Fe-Fe.

I already have 2 Italian Greyhounds and horses (a baby and a retiree). I'd probably take a few rescues to keep my retiree company when baby goes off to be professionally trained.

I like canines but I want to travel when I win on Wednesday night the Powerball jackpot. So I would not have time to care for the animal.-weshar75

Well for me, I would look for a good German Shephard import that is protection trained. Never know when some idiot would try to kidnap the family to get my riches. Besides, I have had several German Shephards in my lifetime and love the breed.

The dirty joke one!

It involves a female elephant getting hit in the head with a coconut and falling down, a male ant climbing on top of the elephant and havine its way with her, and the elephant groans every time another cocunut falls on its head.

And every time the elephant groans, the ant says....

I want one of each! Animals rule! But I wouldn't buy one, just take whatever comes my way like I always do.

LOL...

I know of only two ant and elephant stories. One my uncle used to tell me over and over and over again when I was about 5 years old, and the other is a dirty joke, which I can't write here...lol

BTW...An elephant with it's trunk in the air signifies good luck.

Which story is the one you're talking about

I would buy a politician or a lobbyist on K Street in DC. Those qualify as pets for rich people . . .. don't they?

Oh no! the ant and the elephant story! The height of conceit!

If I hit a jackpot, I'd go ahead and buy the parrot or mynah bird that told me the winning numbers

The key is that I would have like 14 bedrooms and cat would not be allowed to enter half of them. These other rooms would be allergen free as I am allergic to cats.

What I am tying to say is that I could just buy or adopt cat now. But in a condo with no patio I would sneeze like crazy.

I need bigger house first.

We are not a pet family, so no pets. We would donate to organizations that take care of stray animals or taking care of animals which are near extinction.

LottoMike, very funny pic.

I personally wouldn't want a pet after winning a major jackpot.. More stress. For example what if my dog bites a person, he may sue me for part of my jackpot. lol........ I may help or donate funds to help unwanted pets.

Hey LottoMike - I do love ya but that picture gives me the willies. Seriously.

I would like to use my winnings to see firsthand what is happening in various states with different rescues and where the most money will do the most good for the most animals. When ready to settle down, I'd probably add to my brood after obtaining more land and shelter. I have to agree that the 1 animal I'd like to have is a dog that can never be replaced, so I'd probably keep helping big dogs and put more... [ More ]

I'm not one to pay for animals, since there are so many strays around me that are free. But, since my cat that I had for ten years passed away last year, I would like one just like her. She was a rare mix of himalayan, persian and siamese. She was beautiful. She had a twin, but she didn't belong to me and was killed a few years ago. I think I would have to find a breeder to arrange that mix for me. I have other animals, but I would like a cat like her again. They have special characteris... [ More ]

On the side...LETS focus our energies more on hitting jackpot first...I'm sure everyone has their favorite pet, car, house, vacation, etc...if they can afford it.
