Vocal powerhouse Kelly Clarkson has revealed that she has a very unusual number of pets that live on her ranch in Texas with her. 

The 'Because Of You' singer explained to the NME that she has around 50 animals to take care of and describes her place of residence as "a rescue ranch":

"It's like a rescue ranch now. We have 30 dogs, 14 horses. We still only have three ponies and four minis, but we have goats now, two pigs we rescued called Miss Daisy and Boss Hog, I gave those to my brother."

Despite the amount of space Clarkson has at her sprawling home, she admitted that taking in bigger and more adventurous animals would be out of the question and added:

"There are elephant sanctuaries about one mile from where we are – which in Texas isn't that far because we're all spread out – and people have asked would I ever take in something that big. And I'm like, 'No.' Leave that to the elephant sanctuary. I think there's a tiger sanctuary in Texas too. We would never have tigers."
