Most Interesting Pet

What's the most interesting or unique pet you've ever had? For me, I have a hedgehog currently. His name is Viktor, and he's a cutie. He's unique because he's considered an exotic animal, he's illegal in multiple states, and I don't know of many others that have a hedgehog!

I've had two unique pets. The first was an iguana who I named Acid. She was given by my ex-girlfriend. Acid had her tail ripped by the nephew of my ex. I gave her back to my ex so she can nurse her back to health but losing her tail was just too much. The second unique pet that I had was an albino python that I named Lucy. I donated her to the private zoo of a close personal friend of mine. It would be nice to see a photo of Viktor. I bet he is indeed a cutie!

It is amazing! The two unique pets you have are really unusual, and I am not brave enough to raise them. Happy raising.

@loki1982 Thank you! He's a little jerk sometimes, though.

I currently have two Alligator Snapping Turtles and a Tarantula. Here is a picture of one of the Alligator Snapping Turtles.

That snapping turtle looks bad-a$$! Was offered to take care of a tarantula but politely declined it. With my busy schedule, I don't think I can give it the attention it need and deserves.

Oh, he looks so mean and vicious! I bet they're really fun pets, though. What do you do with them? How do you spend time with them or play with them, or are they more like fish when it comes to what you do with them?

I'm jealous. Hedgehogs are illegal where I live. My most interesting pet would have to be my current chihuahua. She doesn't act like a dog. If anything she acts like a Tasmanian devil!

That's such a shame! Where are you located that they are illegal at? I've had a chihuahua terrier mix before. He was actually my first pet ever, and his name was Dawson. What is your pet's name?

@RachelDSims24 I'm in California. Aw, Dawnson sounds like he was a cutie. My chihuahua's name is Lilly.

Those are still all unique pets, in their own way. :) What kind of birds do you have? I've always wanted a bird, but I've heard they're high maintenance, and I simply don't have the patience for a high maintenance pet unfortunately.

Maybe you can post a picture of Viktor so we could all admire him. I have had the usual pets, dogs, a cat, fish, some birds. I would've wanted to have a tiger but I guess it wouldn't be easy to pet it.

I posted a picture of him in one of the other threads, but here he is again! My little spiky cutie. Isn't it illegal to have a tiger as a pet?
