XRay Posted August 16, 2018 Share Posted August 16, 2018 If you did not already know, I have cute kitty cat as my baby. While she is a good girl and all and I could not imagine living without her, I want something more. So, what is your ideal pet, disregarding all the ethical and logistical problems? It can be a domestic animal, wild, silly (pet rock), fantastical (unicorns), basically anything you can think of. For me, if my cat is like maybe four or five times bigger (it is hard to cuddle a small cat), have a more dog like personality, is more cuddly and snuggly, and can talk, then she will be perfect. If she can lay golden eggs and predict lottery numbers, that would be awesome too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coldhand25 Posted August 16, 2018 Share Posted August 16, 2018 Heh, well, for me it's either a German Shepherd, or a plant. Yeah, you read it right, I've just written plant after the dog. Since I'm about to move into dorm (again) I probably won't have a dog, but I need something that needs me to take care of, so I won't become lazy and negligent. I've always wanted a Venus flytrap since like kindergarten, but something small and green would be enough as well as long as it doesn't have flowers. I like to keep things minimalist.

Plants are nice, they do not need potty training and generally much cleaner, although they definitely take more effort to take care of than a pet rock. Do you wish for your pet plant to talk or do some other fantastical things? For me, I want to talk to my cat, but the only thing I am able to understand from her current mewos is when she is hungry or when she wants attention and company.

I read somewhere that plants react if you talk to them, like growing faster, and being healthier. Now, I'm not 100% sure if it's because of the talking, or something else. Well, I think I will only want mine to not look out of place, and to add an extra flavour to the room overall. It'd be nice if it could communicate with me though, like somehow "tell" me if it needs more water, or something special, like fertilizer and stuff. But I guess I will just have to learn to watch out for the signs it can show so I will be able to keep it alive as long as possible. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think that might be due to the extra carbon dioxide from your breath, but even then, the concentration is so low once your breath leaves your mouth that I am not sure it will make a difference. Sounds far fetched to me, but I guess talking never hurts. I talk to my cat anyways, even if she is has no clue what I am saying.

Karimlan Posted August 16, 2018 Share Posted August 16, 2018 If my property manager is not too anal, err, strict about it, I'd get a dog. Not too picky on breeds, although working dogs are a plus (Doberman/German Shepherd/Rottweiler). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr. Mime is indeed helpful. I think I would want to have more than one though to speed things up, maybe along with Machamp, Gardevoir, and other humanoid Pokémon. It would also be nice to have Blissey and Miltank around for free milk and eggs. Not sure if Garbodor eats trash, but if he does, I would not have to throw out the garbage ever again. Maybe I can even have Muk unclog the toilet and clean the drains by going through it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unless being a pet means I get to laze about and eat free food all day, then count me in. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think it depends on the master and what kind of pet you are. If you are my cat, than yeah, she basically just eats and sleeps all day, occasionally running around the house and slowly ripping my mom's couch to pieces.

Chopper... Posted August 17, 2018 Share Posted August 17, 2018 (edited) A Giant Panda that wasn't actually giant but pocket size, around 30cm in height would be fine, with the lifespan of a human being, and the capability of adapting to any type of environment. Oh, I forgot to add: and with the ability to cure any disease with a hug. Edited August 17, 2018 by Chopper... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
