The Pets Thread

I have a guinea pig and a snail. Delboy (guinea pig) is lovely, but Uncle Albert (snail) is awesome. I've seen teenage guys totally disgusted when I put him on my hand.

And for the doofus who asked me this, no snails cannot run away.

Get a chameleon! That would rule!

Hah,i wish,those things are ridiculously expensive.

Are rabbits easy to take care of? Are they worth getting?

Yes and no. My sister had one and it was easy to feed and it was friendly, but the thing is... most rabbits poop EVERYWHERE! There are quite a few that I've heard of that use litterboxes, so I guess you could look into that.

I guess that would be a good idea.I have two little brothers,and rabbits would be good pets for them to learn how look after.Ok,in that case maybe fish would be better,but teaching a rabbit to use a litter box would be the best idea to discipline both us and the rabbit i guess.

My opinion is to recommend cats. I have two. One is a tomcat and he is scared of everything, he never bites and won't scratch you. The other one is a very hairy cat and she bites and plays.

Spoiler: A Tomcat?

Anyway, these are my cats:

Whatever you do, don't buy a hamster. They. are. simply. evil.

If you want fish... do your reasearch... people think they are as easy as pie to keep but they aren't as soon as you learn about a little something called the nitrogen cycle... I have 3 fish tanks and it aint easy...

Get a cat... you can train them to be as loving or as independant as you want them to be... and they sooo cute ^.^

Er, well it all depends on what you're going for or what fits your life style.
I've had anything from cats to dogs to bunnies to hamsters to turtles to fish to birds and uh, one guinea pig pig.

Right now, I just have a cat, and she's adorable.

Try posting a little more about what you can and can not have, or your preferences. That could help a bit more with the responses.

Well i suppose i could have either a rodent or reptile or fish of some description.
Cats and dogs are not allowed at home :/
Right now i'm thinking either a guinea pig or Leopard Geckos. (my uncle has an old lizard cage so a lizard would be a bit cheaper)

No love for Rocks?

Here's my pet Rock George. He knows how to play dead, stay, get thrown through a window and hurt blasphemers (although he needs help with the last two). There's nothing I like more than coming home after a long day to have him greet me at the door, and to pet his coarse skin. He does tend to piddle on the carpet quite a bit though.
