Pets, the ones we had/have, the ones we didn't like, what we think about pets

I saw an advertisement about bunnies for sale in the newspaper, all of those that were returned to a humane society after Easter, no doubt. I have heard that there are a lot of people trying to purchase hedge hogs as pets. It seems like there are lot of people who have tigers and other big cats and even bears and wolves as pets. Some people like dogs and cats. Others like fish. Still others like birds. Still others like snakes and frogs, and turtles. Still others like hermit crabs. Still others like hampsters and other rodents. My brother liked insects and spiders and had them as his pets. I had a guena pig named soupy sales which was a horrible pet as it would climb on my shoulder and poop and pee ... not exactly an endearing trait. I must admit that I was not unhappy when it escaped in the backyard as I was letting it feed on some tender clover and disappeared never to be seen again. I also had fish and a frog but they died. I really liked the frog I had and it apparently liked me too as once I left the top partly off the aquarium and it hopped out of the aquarium and hopped to where I was in another room, across the carpet, and hopped finally right into my hand. What pets have you had? What pets do you have? Are there pets that people should not have? How do you find a good pet? Have you ever had a pet that you did not like? What did you do with that pet?
