If you could have any animal as a pet, what animal would it be?

Sign in to disble this ad
Say you were given the opportunity to have any animal you wanted as a pet, no strings attached, for a year. You don't have to pay for anything, but you must keep it for the whole year. Now, that aside, what animal would you choose?

For the record, I know people with:

A Bobcat
A Tiger
A Cayman Alligator (2 people, actually)
A Burmese python (Several, I want one, damn city by-laws)
Several different Tarantula's/Spiders
A Scorpion
A Centipede

And many more less interesting animals. Personally I think having a pet Grizzly Bear would be badass

A bat. I had one flying around my kitchen once in Japan, and I seriously wanted to keep it.

Just your simple terrier. Dogs are nice and I don't need anything exotic. All the exotic pets have high maintenance requirements, diet issues and other time-consuming problems I don't need. Terriers have lots of personality, aren't too big, and don't shed. What more ya gonna ask?

Dogs are your buddies. That's fine with me.

Can I choose a pokemon?

If not, an elephant. Didn't you see that episode of The Simpsons where Bart got an elephant? By your rules, the only problem the Simpsons had was costs, which are covered.

**** yeah.

I've had a number of cats, but don't have one now. Cats are cute, funny and easy to maintain, so that would be my choice.
