Big cats are fun. Until they grow out of the "kitten" phase. I remember when a petting zoo brought a baby tiger to Pumpkin Show. Little guy roared, and it sounded so cute, then, in my mind's eye, I pictured him growing up mid-roar and I was a little concerned.


On a side note, the answer to life, the universe, and everything? MATH. Add it up.

Ferrets only smell if you don't get them descented. Even descented, they often have a slight musky odor, but they only smell bad if the owners don't take proper care of their cage. Their litter needs to be /changed/ daily, their bedding changed at least weekly (preferably more) and you only should bathe them once a month, if that. If you bathe them more often than that, it strips their skin of the oils, and their body produces it in overdrive, making them smell even more.

But, if properly cared for, and they have their scent glands removed, they hardly smell at all.

They're just a pain in the ass to take care of.

Also... mine likes to steal my wallet. Not a fun way to start a day.

Awww... I think it's trying to say, "You can't start your day without me!" It must really like you. :P

I miss my pet iguana... he was a surly, mean one though... we were still in the process of getting him desensitized to being picked up. Once he was on your shoulder or your arm, he was cool, but picking him up scared the poor guy.

A rat plague!

But it would be great to tame animals in the game.

I always wanted a koala ... or a kangaroo

No, no... a group of pet rats isn't called a plague, its called a mischief.

With good reason...
