The deer, parrot, or any other animal, thread

[CXXC]

Power of the ego! Some folk are happier when their pet is bigger , tougher or rarer than others. We all have our own idea of what makes a good pet. For myself a dog is perfect, a companion that responds well with interaction. Cats I find too aloof. I do have affection for snakes, lizards and spiders but feel they should exist in their native habitat . If however you have compulsion to care for a creature like this choose one that is non-poisonous.
