Obscure pets

SurpriseAt39

Because I'm feeling silly and want to ask fun questions.

If you were to have a different type of pet, which of the following would you have?

Piggies are so cute and smart!! I would just have eat bacon in another room...

Edit: damn you autocorrect

pot bellied pig.  Though, I'd like to have them all except the komodo dragon.  I can just imagine coming home and all the animals run up to greet me. The dogs lick me like usual, then the lizard licks me.  Once.  8-X

I thought about all of them too. It would be fun except for the tarantula. I draw the line at spiders.

See, I could be okay with all of them except the python and the tarantula. I am really not fond of spiders and I can't look at a picture of a snake, or a toy snake without getting the heebie-jeebies.

Snakes don't bother me all that much, but I'd rather not have one either. But hell no to spiders.

I've always disliked ferrets but ever since I read a local story about one getting out of its cage and eating a few fingers off from the baby, I refuse to ever get one.

OMFG. This makes me so so nauseous, and even more anti-ferret.

I want a raccoon. My husbands friend found a bunch of babies & my husband wouldn't let me get one. ( I totally would have lent it some of my breast milk.

Pigs!! I want all the piggies!

The snake would probably eat the ferret and tarantula. The lizard will eat the snake and probably the raccoon and the duck. So really you'd only have a pig and a lizard once everyone is settled.

I would definitely have a piggie poo but I'm also partial to reptiles.  Over the years we've had rats, guinea pigs, lizards and a king albino snake.

heh heh - just being realistic!  I love pets!  But I also think in terms of how many mouths I have to feed.

I put pot bellied pig but in actuality I want a Micro pig!!!  Had a ferret already,  Loved him to death.  So smart and fun - but stinky if you don't bathe or clean them often

I guess. I just always imagine having an endless supply of money and a huge house when thinking about things like this.
Sadly, none of that is reality, Babur I'm never going to have a Komodo dragon either.

Hippos are so mean!! And so cute too. @laura8838‌

But there are actually domesticated foxes you can actually have as pets. @threetaboos‌

Where were the parents while the ferret was doing that?!  Yikes.

When I met my husband he had a Ferret that I nicked-named: FF (FuckingFerret). It was disgusting. It shit everywhere, smelled, and it reminded me of a rat/rodent. Needless to say - - it was adopted out by the time he wanted to move in.

We had a family of foxes that lived in our backyard and every year there were BABY FOXES!!!! OMG.  They were so cute.  I only watched them thru the window but I DID buy a dog toy for them once.  I tossed it out in the backyard, but they never played with it.
