Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie are adding a few new members to the family!
After arriving at their chateau in the South of France, they took sons Maddox, 8, and Pax, 5, to a local pet and garden shop to buy gerbils and goldfish on Thursday.
While at the Brignoles, France, store — called Jardinerie du Centre Var — Jolie, wearing a black maxi-dress, reached into the cage to pet the “gerbilles” while Pitt perused the aisles.
The couple stocked up on a cage and gear for their new pets and also bought Maddox a cactus.
One day earlier, the parents took daughters Shiloh, 3, and Zahara, 4, to lunch at the Auberge de Chatueauvert in Correns, France. Their meal consisted of a platter of cold cuts and a mushroom omelette, and the parents drank Rose wine. Both of the girls had stick-on tattoos.

The dedication to her craft that garnered Angelina an Academy Award for her performance in Girl, Interrupted (1999), is reflected in her efforts for the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees (UNHCR), a UN agency that currently assists 20 million refugees in approximately 120 countries.
Angelina’s involvement with UNHCR began with a mission to Sierra Leone, a small African country that – like the Democratic Republic of the Congo – has been devastated by years of brutal civil war. Seeing firsthand the enormous challenges that refugees face was a life-altering experience for Angelina, who decided to use her fame to aid their cause. In 2001, she was named a UNHCR Goodwill Ambassador.
Although only 28, Angelina’s acting career has already spanned two decades. Her first feature role was in Lookin’ to Get Out (1982), a film co-written and co-produced by her father, the acclaimed actor Jon Voight. Since then, she has received Golden Globe Awards for the television movies George Wallace (1997) and Gia (1998) and her film credits include Hackers (1995), The Bone Collector (1999), Gone in Sixty Seconds (2000), Lara Croft: Tomb Raider (2001), and Lara Croft Tomb Raider: The Cradle of Life (2003).
As a UNHCR Goodwill Ambassador, Angelina uses her status as a superstar to generate media coverage about the plight of refugees and the conditions under which they live. She has traveled widely to remote refugee camps and receiving centers in countries including Tanzania, Namibia, Cambodia, Pakistan, Thailand, and Ecuador. To further raise awareness, she has released her personal journals for select field visits that can be accessed at USA for UNHCR. For her efforts, Angelina has been honored with the Church World Service Immigration and Refugee Program Humanitarian Award.
While hosting What’s Going On? Angelina was inspired by the stories of the Fataki brothers, Echa Nyange and Sofia Mocke, all children living at the Lugufu refugee camp in Tanzania.
Tragically, their stories are all too familiar to Angelina, who has met thousands of men, women, and children forced to flee from their homes and struggle to survive as refugees. “You go to these places and you realize what life’s really about and what people are really going through,” says Angelina. “These people are my heroes.”
Angelina Jolie dishes about her active love life with Brad Pitt: ‘We got a few special places’
There is nothing boring about this couple.
At Monday night’s L.A. premiere of Quentin Tarantino’s Nazi-killing flick “Inglourious Basterds,” Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt dished about their active love life, their twins and the possibility of marriage.
When asked about the secret grotto that Pitt, 45, labeled “a great place for sex” in a recent interview for Parade, Jolie told Extra, “Yeah, well, we got a few special places. You keep it going.”
But there seems to be little hope that the star couple will tie the knot anytime soon.
Pitt vowed to honor his previous statement to Esquire magazine that he wouldn’t wed Jolie until all couples were allowed to marry legally in the United States.
“I did say that,” he said. “So now I’m stuck with it.”
However Jolie doesn’t seem to mind the wait since the actor recently called her his “soulmate.”
She replied, “That is very cool. Well, he’s mine. It is what it is.”
The 34-year-old actress, clad in a skin-tight black leather dress, also mentioned that their twins, who celebrated their first birthday in July, had finally taken their first steps.
“The twins are great. They’re walking,” she told Life & Style. “I hope to get all of my kids involved [in humanitarian efforts]. I hope to raise them properly so that they have a good conscience, and they’re good people.”
Brad and Angelina kept the party going after the L.A. premiere of Inglourious Basterds with a bash at the Mondrian Hotel in West Hollywood. The couple was the life of the Skyy vodka-sponsored fete, and they held court at a window table, being social and sipping cocktails. Jolie also chatted up two of her female pals and actor Eli Roth, while Pitt had some business-related conversations with his manager. Nearby, his costar Diane Kruger had a dapper date in beau Joshua Jackson, though she also mingled with girlfriends.
