Degenerate

Honestly as far as human gain, exotic animals are at best going to be like having a cat with the work of owning two dogs. Not worth it.

I mean ferrets are exotic animals according to my vet who charges me an extra $50 "exotic pet fee" and they're not a very expensive animal
Your argument has been foiled

Who needs an exotic when you can have dogs with floppy ears

>>2287696
exotics are cheap especially the ones in reptile expo

Got a ball python for 20 canadian dollars

Rat's are technically exotic animals.

Anon why did you let your rat die? Find a different vet. Typically you should pay $50 for a biopsy and $100 for tumor removals. The most I've ever payed was for $250 for a severe case of pyometra

because no matter how much money you spend on it it will only live for 4 years

If you're not willing to empty your bank account and sell your house to help your pet rat live even 1 extra day, a pet isn't for you.

>>2290471
Where did you buy a mudskiper?

>>2290536
local fish store. That was the only time they ever got them since.

>it's basically illegal to own exotics here

Like, you can't own snakes or tarantulas or even hamsters or gerbils or ferrets. A bearded dragon, a cockatoo, or an axolotl are the best and most exotic you can hope for, here. Forget the larger animals.
