Thinking of getting a little animal companion,but not entirely sure which to get.
Any ideas my fellow escspists?

Don't pets just rule?
If you have any,please discuss.

Fish. They don't shit all over the house, they don't do noisy crap all night so you can't sleep and you don't need to feed em meat or anything. Just good ol' fish.

i bought fish once... i had 9... we fed em fine.. but uhh it turns out that the big black one *i am not racist, this is true* had stolen all the food for the other ones and they starved to death and then he ate their bodies....

the point of this story you may ask? dont buy fish that are different.. buy a few of the SAME fish... or at least same size.

Yeh, take this guy's advice. Once we had a huge gold fish and it ate all the little neons we bought.

I have HAD a couple of awesome pets.
A hyperactive toy-poodle called Toto
A malevolent, kingly cat called Frisky
and a ginger, chubby, playful hamster called Nibbles.

I'm not allowed any pet in my flat now, so I just have a husband instead.
;o)

I've got a dog named Bailey- he's a Nova Scotia Duck Toller Retriever.

He'll be 13 years old this April 1st. His kidneys are failing, though, so.. he's got maybe a year or two left in 'im.

yes!! epic advice! lol...

also i forgot to mention something that you just reminded me of... dont know how you did but you did ok...

the big black fish died because he ate so much... so it was a mass murder/suicide... sounds fishy to me... *pun intended* lol XD

Get a huge dog and train him to attack things-or better yet a Flaming bear =).

I used to have a canary ten years ago that was so depressed it never sang. It was constantly escaping its cage and trying to kill itself. One time he flew into the oven just as my mother put a pie in there and shut it. Luckily, we got it out before he cooked with the pie. It died of old age.

My sister once had a Siamese fighting fish named Barabossa. It was pretty boring except when we'd put a mirror next to and watch it try to fight with its reflection.

So yeah, we never really had the best, happiest pets.

Or, better yet. A Dozen flaming bears. With laser beam eyes.
Which ride on tornadoes and hatch from cocoons in lava.

Don't get a python. A friend of mine had one until a two weeks ago. He took him to the vet because wasn't eating for a few weeks. The vet told him to put him down because the snake was starving himself to eat my friend. (Yes, he was a large snake.)
