If I had the space, I’d want the pig.
I have a cockatoo I inherited and it taught me birds should not be pets.
Amen, brother. I LOVE parrots. I WANT to have them as screaming, demanding, insanely destructive friends, but it feels cruel to force them to live with humans. They care about their mates and their flock and humans are bad, inattentive partners for parrots.
If a human insists on avian friends, I’d suggest a small set of chickens outside in the yard. They are very domesticated, not endangered, and can rely on one another for most their socializing needs. You can even put them in diapers for visits in the house. Before considering, beware that all kinds of predators want to eat your pet chickens.
Ducks and geese are probably fine but require a pond outdoors. And, you know, outdoors.
Some people nearby have a turkey, I guess that’s an option too.
Pig all day every day.
I don’t care if it gets to be 200 pounds, those animals are smart and clean.
Dwarf pigs exist, like kunekune of League of Pigs fame.
I don’t think it is okay to call them that, even if they are police. AFAIK the preferred term is little people?
You got me I guess.
