    Lidl will be selling a range of owls in a fortnight.

    Ranging from sleek modern compact owls perfect for commuting. To robust owls for camping, hiking etc.

    Pretty much an owl to meet any lifestyle.

    3-year warranty too which is always a comfort.

    Didn't take long for the owl one jokes, can you not be serious, your perfect pet, simple question. I'd also like a wolf if I didn't have to walk it

    So what you really want is something that will stay up all night. That will turn heads

    Owls are cool. As long as you've got a 20 ft aviary rather than keeping them in your bedside cabinet like this woman did (http://www.mirror.co.uk/news/uk-news/hundreds-of-pet-owls-abandoned-after-840299).

    You could get it to go foraging and just sit back in the lap of luxury as it brings you back tasty morsels.

    Crap pool opponents though.

    I played one before, everytime he committed a foul and I shouted "two hits" he would start giving me the evil eye and say "two hits to who?" :cool:

    Your perfect pet?

    Whats stopping you from perching the dog on your shoulder?

    ...failing that, what about a parrot?
