| C'mon folks. No one on the board have an exotic, out of the ordinary pet like say a big boa constrictor or a pet chimpanzee? Not even you Obi?. You disappoint. Now I could picture you with a pet chimp bringing you the newspaper and a bottle of beer. I need one of those myself. Teach it to clean the house and do the laundry and take care of the kids. It wouldn't be my pet but my "slave". Wonder where I could get one for sale. |

I do!... Er, at least I did many moons ago. I owned a couple of pet skunks. A black & white named "Degas" and a brown and white named "Portia".
Degas ended up with my ex-boyfriend and Portia escaped and was probably eaten.. poor thing. Anyway, they were great pets. Used the litter box like a cat and everything.

LOL Caitlin Skunks, now that is definitely different. Weren't you worried that they might "spew" and "stink" up the place?.
Definitely the "weirdest" pet so far. |

Actually, they were de-scented though you still could smell the musk on them. It was cute though because if they got angry they would still try to "spray" you. They stamp their feet and look back at you with their backside aimed right at you!

Weird! My mom used to have a cat named Gypsy who looked exactly like your Gypsy. Things that make you go  .

Isn't there a way to make skunks non-stinky? I thought you could remove their stink glands or something. Maybe . . . ? Or I could be making that up.  |

| Something to think about. Raccoons are cute, but they are wild animals. They can be really vicious when mad, and they are known carry rabies. You might should listen to the hubby. |

| If you don't mind a little advice Bat, - NOT a good idea to feed wild animals, seriously. Raccoons can and are nasty sob's when they want to be. Usually, feeding wild animals does more for the feeder, - than those fed. ;) |

Thanks for the advice...but it is purely by accident they are getting food..we have outdoor cats and when there are leftovers...well the squirrels and rabbits and fox all semm to know when to get a treat every so often...our property is a wooded area and we live on a lake so any given day we have deer and all the other visitors too..but you are right ...feeding the wild can be a problem...but I will be careful.
