DOH !

Anyways, I was about to tell you clowns about the pet problem I have in my home, first there was Gerbils and Hamsters, both animals had babies and the mother ate them :(
Then there's the cat, going out and killing the other male cats in the nieghborhood and dropping them off on our front porch, now it's the frog in the fish tank eating all the fish !

Ahhh, good ol'e mother nature at her best, we seem to be doomed to pet death !

What would be a good pet for my little guy that either will not kill other animals or die in the first week of ownership ?

Can it kill other animals as food? IE, can it be a predator?

It's like Wild Kingdom in your house.

If that cat starts dragging home Gazelles it's time to buy a rifle.

Excellent :)

I remember "Petey", my pet Parakeet when I was 5 years old, I was playing with him and he flew out of my hands and landing on the red hot burner on the stove (Electric), his feet stuck to the burner when he flew off, he survived for 4 more years with no feet, used to lay down in his cage all the time :p

snake. Not a huge boa constrictor or anything, but something that'll grow to 3'-6' at maturity. Maybe a corn snake.
 

He already drives my VW Bus, I am not going to buy him a car until he's 16, which is seven years away.

Good grief, what pet store do you shop at?

Why don't you get him a turtle? Or a bunny or something... maybe a Chia pet?
 

Damn what kind if cat do you have?

Just a mangy old mongrel cat that kicks a$$ :)

Turtles are out, they carry too many diseases that can infect humans, a bunny ?, he'd laugh at me and then chuck the sucker at me :)

Ch, Ch, Ch Chia ! is not a pet.
