If you could keep any animal as a pet, what would it be?

[Megan]

Ferrets, of course!

 

[cybercupid]

probably a polar bear, like how sick would it be seeing someone walk around with an armored polar bear:

 

[MrDawn]

Oh, you mean @Nebulous?

I can really see you having one...

 

[Cam]

If it's trained and not going to kill me, I wouldn't mind having a tiger. Go ahead and call me Tiger King.

A conesnail. They're just dangerous to handle and putting on chainmail gloves every time you want to handle it (unless you have balls of steel) is so much work lol. But if that wasn't an issue, definitely a conesnail. I adore venomous creatures. Wouldn't keep one that had an absolute chance of killing me though. I just do not desire death by heart and/or organ failure. Its a 50/50 chance with a conesnail. Not so absolute. Just slightly dangerous under certain circumstances. That is acceptable for me.

Now, that's unique!
Beautiful, but can you teach it to fetch?

I'd want a bat. The best part is, everyone, even dudes, are scared of bats. It's a great people repellent.

But, they are the CUTEST little things Evah!

TIL bats can hiss! My sister's neighbor had a huge bat that, for some reason was camping out on her front door. They were able to record video of them using a broom to try and nudge it. As the broom gets close, it hisses like a damn snake. It didn't fly away though, and barely moved otherwise. This happened during the day, which did kinda concern me about rabies, but they also live right next to a forest and see all kinds of crazy critters.

I would keep a Siberian Husky.

That IS interesting! ... and pretty strange bat-behavior.
Maybe it didn't fly because it was lost & could not see (if it was daytime); I don't think that they see very well anyhow, but navigate using their 'radar' signals. Hence the expression, "Blind as a Bat".
Sure could have been a sign of Rabies too.

A shoebill. I like how it goes RATATATATATATATA with its beak as if it's a machine gun.
