Cool pets, but does anyone have a big cat (tiger, lion, jaguar, leopard, etc)?
Or hell, how about an ocelot named Babou? |

My dad had some kind a funky named crow at one time forgot what it was. Great pets. The crow was the only bird we could let out side and let it fly off and it would always come back to the house. |

Cool pets, but does anyone have a big cat (tiger, lion, jaguar, leopard, etc)? Or hell, how about an ocelot named Babou? My aunt used to run a big cat sanctuary where I worked over the summers as a kid. The experience I gained there taught me two things: 1.) I would never want something like that as a pet. 2.) Nobody else should have one either. All of her cats came from people who thought it would be "cool" to own one and figured out later that it was not. |

Teflon is real bad for a lot of birds. My parents trashed all of their teflon years ago. We also lost many birds due to the fumes of a self cleaning oven. Mom sued Sears over that and won. No one knew self cleaning ovens could kill a bird, just like with teflon back in the day. |

Any cool/scary cat stories you want to share? The worst was a female Bengal that escaped her enclosure and wandered down the road to a nearby ranch where she made a mess of some sheep. I answered the phone when the pissed off rancher called about the 330 lb cat that ripped apart a few sheep and his dog. He shot her half a dozen times before she went down ( I don't recall what caliber/gun). A storm the night before had taken down a tree which damaged her enclosure allowing her to escape. Thankfully it was just some sheep and a dog not somebodies kid. The animals get destructive in captivity with lack of proper stimulation. They become bored and aggressive against their handlers. Most of what came our way were from people that could no longer handle them once they grew up. If you've ever had a cat you know how much of a ruckus they can create swatting a toy mouse around the house. Now imagine a 180 lb Mountain Lion swatting a garbage can around the house. Another factoid about large cats most don't know is they like to piss where they are laying and roll around in it. Not exactly an endearing quality in a house pet. Beautiful animals but the wild is where they belong. It's not fair to the animal when people take them as pets and it's stupid and dangerous for all others around. |

Well... not really fair since I work with animals, but these are some of mine..., a VERY small sampling of my personal herd.
SNAP...taken in 2003 I think...he now weighs 32 pounds. Common snapping turtle. 
TIGGER. Eastern tiger salamander 
Trapdoor spider 
Southern Black Widow 
Of course, sometimes they have babies... 
Brown Recluse 
Giant African millipede 
Grey-Banded Kingsnake 
Cobalt Blue Tarentula...yes, they are nasty. This one slams his fangs against the cage side when I come near. 
Giant centipede... also very nasty...ask me how I know 
Something you don't see very often... Sheltopusic...leggless lizard from Russia/Turkey...
