Jennie Garth and her husband Peter Facinelli have eschewed the Hollywood lifestyle for something a little earthier. The actress and her family live on a ranch outside Los Angeles, and it's populated with the kind of animals you might expect in the country: "Horses, dogs, cats, goats, chickens and a pig."

Garth calls herself a horseback rider, but Twilight Saga star Facinelli "doesn't know which end of the horse to get on," she tells PEOPLEPets.com. "He grew up in the city."

The couple's three children, Luca, Lola and Fiona, seem to have picked up some of their mother's animal-loving tendencies. "I bribe my kids with new pets," the 90210 actress says. "Everything's on course for a new puppy and a new bunny rabbit soon."

But don't expect any of those chickens or goats to end up on the table. "We're never going to be eating our pets! We're just starting our own petting zoo."
