Ever since I was a little girl I have wanted a baby monkey (a smaller sized one) as a pet. I am sure you have to be privlidged in some way to be able to house such a pet, but it would be cool if I could. Let me know what kind of cool pets yo wnat to have or dremed of having. Let me know if you already have cool pets and how you were ble to do it.

It I could own a wild animal it would be a tiger or panther. These are your big cats that have style and class. I think a monkey could be interesting. You know a little guy not one of the big ones. Wouldn't it be cool to train the monkey to fetch and play games with you. You would never be alone. There is a law though that doesn't let you own these wild animals. In Maryland they even passed another law that says you can only have a snake that is x amount in length. The same with lizards. There seems to be a lot of exotic animals ending up on the street and causing problems so the government feels they need to restrict the types of animals you can have. My husband and I are talking about moving to Tennessee up near or in the mountains. It would be neat if I actual could have a bear for a pet. I would not have to worry about trespassers.

I used to always want unusual pets, like monkeys,tigers,lions,flying squirls, and hedgehogs. I love lots of animals.

When I was a kid, I had a hipopotamus doll so cute and I want a hipo for my pet. They look cute too on TV and in the zoo.. When I grew up older I learn that hipo is a wild animal and they are quite dangerous, that makes me sad because I thought that hipo is a friendly animal... So now.. I just love fish... and I want a dolphin for my pet and maybe a whale...

I'm not really big into pets. I have a hard enough time keeping up with, and cleaning up after myself, the dan man, and miss maddie cakes. No need for me to add a pet to the mixture, that would just be a recipe for disaster. It's all right though. Maybe one day after I figure out how all this housekeeping business works and figure out a routine, then I'll get a pet. They have these cats calls Bengal cats, that look exactly like miniature leopards. They're really cute, and they look amazing! I don't know if I would want one of those, or if I would want a tiny little cream and tan short hair chihuahua. I love those little guys with their buggy little eyes. Oh well. Having a pet is something that is quite a long ways of in the future. Hopefully Maddie dosen't ask for one before I want one.
