Who in their right mind would have a scorpian for a pet?

I think that part of owning a pet is the companionship you gat from it. In my mind this would eliminate a snake, lizard, fish, turtle, spider, and a scorpian.

Hi Jan,
Some people have chickens and pot bellied pigs for pets. To me they are livestock and don't belong in the house. I think a pig is smart enough to potty train but a chicken? No Way.

The father of one of my students had a farm and a couple of pigs which were given pet names and apparently adored. They eventually ended up in a family "Matanza" (pig slaughter and barbecue) and enjoyed by all.

No it was a friends cat. I was removing some tree stumps in her garden when the hound and her cat confronted each other. It looked like the hound had come off worse, his face badly scratched and bleeding, but the cat suffered a badly broken leg and had to be put down.

Why does a pet need to have a use? If a pet entertains a person, makes them happy, or teaches them to care for someone else, wouldn't that be a use for the pet?

Most pets are far from being useless cause they provide company and are a lot more loyal then most humans.
