As long as you can afford to take care of them more power to you.
I grew up with 4-5 cats at all times. My family lived in the boondocks where disgusting people go to get rid of their pets so we never went to a shelter to adopt our kitties. Also 3 years ago my sister got her dog from that same area (where my parents still live). It pisses me off that people just abandon their pets!

I have 4 cats (fat boy lives just in my room cause he is an old asshole) and 2 big dogs. It never seems like many till the 5 that roam are all hanging out in the same room.
5 cats and a dog is... not a lot of animals to me. At all.
I promise I'm not a hoarder though!
Lol!
I have a freakishly large amount of pets. 2 dogs, 2 ferrets, 3 guinea pigs, 2 tarantulas, a bearded dragon and a small fish tank.
However they're all well taken care of and spoiled. My partner works in animal welfare so we definitely wouldn't have more than we could care for! Like the 112 bunnies he found in a one bedroom house...

I have four cats and a dog, and a huge fish tank. Two of my cats are with me because they'd be put to sleep in the shelter program. They are pretty old with health problems.
I have a big house with lots of land and they all run happily about. I love the chaos and the snuggles. It's worth it to me!
I have 3 cats, 1 dog, and 7 chickens. And I consider mine too many cats lol I am so sick of cat hair and litter and poop and the barfing on all the important things .2 seconds after running out of food because "we're staaaaaaaarrrrvvvinnnnng. BARF. Take that. Feeeeed ussssss right meow!"

5 animals is a lot, I'm really hoping they are your moms.
Yeah, they stay with my mom while I'm at school. But I work 4 days on, 5 days off... So on those 5 days off, I live with them. I grew up with them, they are ours. Why would you really hope they are hers?
