Exotic pets. Do you have one?

[alva]

I was watching a TV programme last night on the creatures some people keep as pets.

It was a pretty good programme though, I don't think people should keep the kind of pets portrayed but these people lived for them so they will turn out ok.

And that leopard was fabulous, so was the meercat btw .

One thing I don't understand:

Ferrets are illegal in CA as the F' with the livestock (Turkeys, chicken, etc...) yet at the pet store they still sell items tailored only to Ferrets... I hate this and I really am sick of seeing it. I have raised the issue with PetCo and they say that people use the stuff for other things... Yeah, right... They can't even name one other reason ppl might buy a "ferret farm" or a Ferret "cady"... F' them, and if I ever see a ferret I will shoot it

Ever see a puff adder?

They are awesome..like a baby cobra, they hiss and strike at you but arent poisonous, they actually flatten their head out and are fairly entertaining, actually i ran into one in Olde Point area of Eastern North Carolina, showed him my best buddy the shovel....havent seen the snake since..or even parts of the snake for that matter

I'd like to raise mink or chinchila one day. Just so I can kill the little bastards and make my wife/girlfriend a fur coat.
