Were these folks sane? My mom would plead the 5th.

A lot of Bears, a Panda, a Penguin, a Ladybug, two Owls, a Giraffe, a Squirrel, a Turtle, two Lions and a Dolphin

And then there's a sphinx and a unicorn... but if she had either of those this is definitely fiction...

My vote is for the squirrel. I've had friends that kept them as pets, and a lot of people think they're cute and cuddly.. I'm terrified of them myself.

As much as I love squirrels, I wouldn't want one as a pet.

My bil and sil in law kept some small sugar gliders.

Oh my, so sorry for the confusion there y'all. I assure you that no federal animal protection laws were broken in the making of my rush story!! My sarcastic side came out a little with the lion thing, I should've clarified that I was kidding.

I've set a goal of posting one day's worth of recruitment story per day. I'll use it as a study break.

Y'all are missing the obvious.....



















































It's a Phoenix. She lived in a fireproof house of course.

ETA: Why am I feeling like this is going to be "that thing"?

My cousin does magic shows and he keeps doves as pets. Unusual, but not crazy.
