The World's Ten Weirdest Pets


(YouTube link)

See what can happen when you have a bobcat for a pet? I've been lacerated by domestic cats enough to know that I don't want to fight a wildcat over dinner. And this one is just a cub! People take in pets stranger than bobcats, however: read the stories of people who keep hippos, tigers, alligators, zebras, and more in The World's Ten Weirdest Pets. Link


"You don't scare me." ... I want to see the follow-up video two years from now when the guy takes the place of the steak.

Ignoring the topic of wild animals kept in domestic environments, if you don't respect what the term wild actually means, you're putting yourself and your "pet" at grave risk.

I don't care if people own unconventional pets.... so long as those people aren't idiots and know what they're getting in to and how to properly take care of the animal. Which unfortunatly most of the time isn't the case.

...but sadly,they most likely will once young Sam drops the minerals-Maybe they'll post a follow-up video showing off their injuries, and their brand new "DUMBASS" tattoos!

Cute kitty, but not meant for the house, and certainly not meant to living with this guy. He clearly knows/cares very little of cats. At risk of sounding abrasively cynical... I wonder how long it will be until that other cat of theirs is either dominated to death or eaten by the bobcat. Sounds like they have a small child too. This cannot end well....lol.

@LisaL and others:
These "unconventional pets" should not be considered pets at all - not only is it dangerous, stupid, and unethical, it's also very illegal in most parts of the world. And videos about these "pets" just give more idiots ideas that jeopardize the lives of many animals. Anyone who owns "unconventional pets" ARE idiots. There is no such thing as a good person that illegally attempts to domesticate a wild animal. People like this should be euthanized.

Not to mention posting things like this on a blog only encourages this, potentially endangering more animals. Please think before you post - this is not neat or informative and should not get anyone's support.
