Pet fish thread got me thinking, what kinds of interesting pets do you guys keep? Everyone has dogs, and cats are a waste of oxygen. What other animals do you consider worthy of pet status?

Dogs.

And that's it.

All other pets suck. Especially monkeys. Anybody who owns a monkey sucks

Me and my son caught a scorpin while cutting firewood at the deer lease. It currently sits in a tank in his room and eats about 3 crickets a week..

Pretty cool animal to watch.

I had a "pet" squirrel when I was younger. I found it in the woods when it was a baby and took care of it. It lived on our backporch for awhile before it remembered that it was a squirrel and left. I cried for like 3 days.

I've had squirrels, coons, wild hogs, alligators, hedgehogs, snakes, and even a baby wood duck for a couple hours.

No time for it anymore. Haven't had anything but a dog for years.

I had a chameleon before I moved to BR. It was badass watching her eat. The colors she would show when outside were incredible. She was extremely hard to take care of.

I had a flying squirrel until I tried to earn his trust by letting him out of his cage to run around the house. I figured a flying squirrel in a cage was about as useless as a gerbil. Once I set him free he took up residence under my fridge and became a flying pest. So one night I lured him into my walk-in closet where I was able to recapture him and put him outside.

Always thought it would be cool to have an otter in my parents pond. The pond is pretty big, so it would seem to be a good habitat.
