What kind of pet should I have? +[JenTheLonely]+

Hey there. My folks were thinking about getting a dog. A small dog. But then some dogs go through teething(sp?) , digging, and some run away... Nobody wants chewed up funiture and holes in the yard. Cats are nice but they smell. Yeah, cats do lick themselves clean but it's not enough, lol. Lizards are cool but they don't do much but lay under a heat lamp while resting on a rock. Snakes would be great but my sister might get scared. Rodents are ok, but they can run lose and smell worse than the cats! LOL. Fish are ok. Rabbits are ok but they don't do much. The pet that I might want is a parrot! Parrots are cute, could talk, might do tricks. They can also be noisy and with those beaks they can break walnuts with 'em! lol. So, what animal would you suggest? What animals did you have experience with? I live in a home. I don't live on a ranch or in an apartment. So keeping a horse won't be such a good idea. :\

Thanks for reading, JenTheLonely

Date: 4/7/2002 10:55:00 AM  From Authorid: 48434    you can always take a cat to get cleaning i like cats the best i have one that i have to get rid of ( but they are cool pets  
Date: 4/7/2002 10:57:00 AM  From Authorid: 48993    well it depends on how much time you have to be w/ ur pet........a cat very low maintence , feed them pet them give 'em water change the litter box u have a happy pet, ( i have had a cat now for 11 years and he's 1 of my best friends he can read me and he knows when to come sit on my lap and when to leave me alone) a dog (ive had the best dog now for 2 1/2 yrs) but she digs we cant stop her and she does have help from our son LOL..but she a great protector and my son's best friend! , fish are great if u wanna relax ..i'd luv to get some fish myself but i dont trust my son enough yet LOL ...a parrot can live to be 70+ years old so its alot of commitment, lizards snakes and reptiles all carry the salomanella( sp?) disease so i wouldnt want that in my house , not that i dont like them just yuck, so really it depends on u and what kind of effort u feel u r able to put into a pet????~~~~~daniedarlin  
Date: 4/7/2002 10:57:00 AM  From Authorid: 16845    I've had pretty much all of the above minus the snake rabbit and rodent...LOL hmmm fish suck they don't do squat and you have to keep up on cleaning the tank...love my dog wouldn't trade him in for the world LOL my cat.....eh well whatever he's the first and last cat I'll have i'm sure I love him to bits don't get me wrong but he's got some habits I don't like and he's old LOL parakeets are fun I miss my bird LOL you just have to be careful when letting them out of their cages...and be prepared to deal with the noise...man now I want another bird I miss feathers! LOL  
Date: 4/7/2002 10:58:00 AM  ( From Author ) From Authorid: 43692    Aawww, I'm sorry about your pet cat... Cats are independent though.  
Date: 4/7/2002 11:01:00 AM  From Authorid: 33256    Poodles are nice. They don't chew furniture and they don't shed. Parakeets are nice too. They can live to be 10, are easy to maintain and don't cost much. Plus, you can teach them to talk!  
Date: 4/7/2002 11:02:00 AM  From Authorid: 49101    BIRD BIRD BIRD!!! Theya re the best!  
Date: 4/7/2002 11:03:00 AM  ( From Author ) From Authorid: 43692    I didn't mean for my post to bring up negative memories... Commitment is the major part of keeping a pet. LOL, Daniedarlin, your son and dog were made for each other. Anybody can tell they get along well by the digging. I didn't know a parrot can live 70 plus years! Wow! Um, maybe I'll go for a plant. Now taking care of a plant is very low maintanence (sp?), lol. But there was this one time when I let my plant down. :\  
Date: 4/7/2002 11:04:00 AM  From Authorid: 26733    Get anything that doesn’t eat a lot. I have reptiles and I hate feeding them. I have to cut their food up and all that. Get a dog; train it to bark when it wants to go outside. I think dogs are great...except the means one...they are another story. Notice how a lot of little dogs are pretty mean when you get to know them. My little dog is scared of all other dogs she doesn’t know or that is bigger then her but I have a dog that is bigger then her and she knows him well so she literally attacks him. When I let them inside the house she races up the stairs before the big dog and she waits for the big dog to come up and attack. When we hear a loud commotion of growls and snarls you see my little dog walk away with a big chunk of the big dogs hair in her mouth. My big dog it also old and he can’t bite to save his life. ::CONCLUSION:: Buy something that doesn’t eat a lot  
Date: 4/7/2002 11:06:00 AM  ( From Author ) From Authorid: 43692    Poodles... Those dogs can really make me look tough, lol. Parakeets? Are those the kind of birds that have funny feathers on their heads? I see Miss C agrees with me on the bird thing...  
Date: 4/7/2002 11:08:00 AM  ( From Author ) From Authorid: 43692    lol, BoomBoom. Little dogs are mean. There was this one time when I was young (9 years ago, lol) that I was attacked by my relative's small dog... That dog took a piece of my skin off my knee! Darn him... That lil rascal hated me for some reason.  
Date: 4/7/2002 11:13:00 AM  From Authorid: 51106    I have 2 dogs and they are great for doing tricks and they are loads of fun especially big dogs. Anoles which are a lizard are fun they are fast and they don't just sit under a heat lamp all day.All the pets you mentioned I had expeirence with and they are all great except the bird (I don't know anything about.) -Hansongirl  
Date: 4/7/2002 11:15:00 AM  ( From Author ) From Authorid: 43692    Some reptiles are fast but I'm afraid they might run/slither away once I get them out of its cage...  
Date: 4/7/2002 11:33:00 AM  From Authorid: 26733    Many little dogs are also very territorial, if they feel you are in their space they will attack. I mess with my little dog all the time. Reptiles are fast and such but if you hold then and train them they won’t run away. I have an iguana; we got him young but never really handled him. When he got bigger when he got loose he got loose. One time he went in my closet and I opened my closest and I see him in there clinging to my shirt. I was like "what the heck is going on". I went to get him and I saw his talk get back ready to whack me so I let him chill there. But now since I feed him and such he is much more tamed then my other reptile, which is a bearded dragon. I can leave the cage door open in my iguana cage and he wont even move. I can leave it open and go to sleep and he will still be in the same spot when I get up. ::CONCLUSION:: Get something that doesn’t eat a lot  
Date: 4/7/2002 11:34:00 AM  From Authorid: 48993    i agree w/ boom boom........my dog and cat eat alot!!!! and sometimes the expense is a bit bothersome , but i guess its the price ya gotta pay for a good pet .LOL hmm so does my hubby , lmho , but i guess thats the price ya gotta pay for a good hubby !! roflol ~~~~daniedarlin  
Date: 4/7/2002 11:35:00 AM  From Authorid: 26733    LOL@daniedarlin  
Date: 4/7/2002 11:35:00 AM  From Authorid: 26733    There are also leashes you can get for reptiles. It’s pretty cool. You see people walking there dogs down the street and I have my big iguana on a leashes walking him.  
Date: 5/6/2002 10:41:00 AM  From Authorid: 53055    I have several suggestion for a pet. They are pretty weird to keep as pets though....but hey, a pet's a pet. You might try a hedgehog, they seem to be pretty small. I have been trying to find a hedgehog, but so far, no luck. You might try getting a warm-water penguin, lol....watch Neon Genesis Evangelion, you'll understand why it's so funny. It's my favorite anime series so far. You may also try raising a baby turtle.
