I'd love a penguin.

Would an owl wan do you? I believe there are pubs in Dublin where you can get them for next to nothing.

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

Skill Magill · 07-06-2014 07:28AM

Or a penguin

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

Skill Magill · 07-06-2014 07:37AM

Well I'm too old to walk the dog

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).

A prickly subject, likely to be a thorn in your side

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:

Whats stopping you from perching the dog on your shoulder?

...failing that, what about a parrot?
