What is the worst pet?

[Brigandier]

Sea Monkeys.

 

[DivideBYZero]

And cats.

I don't really get the hate for fish. They aren't really pets though. I think of them more as decorations. A tank with some nice looking fish, live plants, and other decorations can be very nice to look at.

They are just completely worthless is all. You can't interact with them at all yet if you ignore them, much as you would a decoration, they will die. Yet people spend thousands and thousands of dollars on tanks, food, fish, shit that goes in the tank for the fish to swim through, etc.

Complete waste of money if you ask me.

Birds are up there on the list of most worthless creatures to keep as pets too.

pet rock

 

[JulesMaximus]

freaking ATOT'ers. They are never potty trained and fucking gnaw on my wood.

Funny, that's what your wife said about you.

 

[Kanalua]

Fish definitely. You might as well own a painting.

Reef and reef fish. Never been more involved with the lives of any pets I've ever owned.

I had a rabbit named Stew once. It didn't end well.

 

[zinfamous]

I don't like cats. They have crappy parasites up their arses.

Roosters. That whole "they crow in the morning" is urban legend. One of ours (soon to become a Sunday dinner) is loud ALL....NIGHT....LONG.

Lol last week we took our rooster a few miles from home and dropped it off in the woods. Bastard kept attacking people.

The 'worst' pet is one you no longer have time for.

 

[Scooby Doo]

Children???

 

[Ichinisan]

I long time ago, I would have agreed about Guinea pigs being bad pets. Most just didn't act like pets and avoid being handled.

However, I finally met someone that owned a Guinea pig and it was super-friendly. It loved to jump in my lap and be petted.

While I think ferrets are cute, I don't think they make good pets. They just WON'T STOP MOVING and they don't seem to be very affectionate.

 

[Malak]

Birds that fucking chirp all the time.

/thread

Oh shit yes! Forgot about that one because I actually have never seen anyone with a bird as a pet. Just plain stupid idea.

 

[Ichinisan]

Monkey. They'll rip your face off and eat your fingers.

You're probably thinking of chimpanzees. They are not monkeys.

 

[lord_emperor]

Cats, dogs, hamsters, ferrets, pigs and guinea pigs share what I consider an essential feature: They recognize their owner and have a chance of showing affection.

Things like spiders, lizards and fish, which are basically indifferent, don't appeal to me as pets.

 

[Capt Caveman]

Birds - too noisy for me

 

[mmntech]

Any small rodents. Hamsters, mice, rats. They're messy, the smell, and they die easily.

 

[PliotronX]

My uncle's insane ex-wife was obsessed with keeping squirrels indoors for a while. They damaged everything, even peed on their expensive widescreen and fried it. They also tend to bite. Best left in the wild. That is until they gnaw a hole into your attic and make a nest.

Jerk! I don't buy roosters. People keep dropping them off at my house.

 

[Analog]

What do you guys think is the worst common pet? Not counting obscure things, just 'standard issue'.


My vote is guinea pig. Unless there is something else I'm forgetting.

I wuv guinea pigs!!!

 

[blinblue]

Sasquatch, the damn things shed up a storm and stink to high heaven

And the worst part is you can never see them clearly, bounding into thick fogs and out of focus areas!
