Pet Companion

[CommanderRyan]

What if The Doctor had a pet companion again you know like K9 was so far his only pet companion what sort of animal could it be and why? I myself think an owl fits really well with The Doctor I just feel it fits him best and could be interesting in my opinion. What do you all think?

 

[ITL]

Alan the mouse. No particular reason.

 

[Sindatur]

I'd really enjoy travelling with the Doctor, but, I'm not really happy about the label "Pet"

 

[CommanderRyan]

I mean for me the reason why I think its such an interesting thought is the H.G. Wells style the TARDIS and The Doctor had. I feel an owl would have fit right in really well. And I even still think with the futuristic TARDIS look I still believe an Owl could still fit in and be companion.

I dunno - could lend to some odd moments for the doctor, think if he had a horse...

Doctor: [finishing off passionate speech]... and that is why peace is the only option between the Human and the Sontaran Empires!

Sontaran General: Doctor... your words have much power, I agree that... wait...wait... the Doctor's companion, he... he unsheathes his genitals at us!! The insult!! ATTACK

[Doctor turns around, his pet horse has a full on stonker]

Not again Red Rum!

 

[ITL]

Dammit. That rules out monkeys, then. For so many reasons.

Can I have Clara as a pet companion?

 

[Klaus]

Can I have Clara as a pet companion?

Take a number!

...to try to answer the question, as a cat person I think, K-9 and 10's declaration notwithstanding, that he'd be a good cat person. A cat has all the qualities he values in a companion -- independence, curiosity, loyalty, self-confidence...

And don't forget Cats rarely do what they're told, which is a necessity for a Companion. If the Companions did what they were told, half the stories wouldn't be able to happen

 

[Green Lantern]

None. It's a terrible idea. K-9 was bad enough.

 

[Pindar]

Frobisher

 

[Ar-Pharazon]

Frobisher

 

[Iamnotspock]

Could be worse; could be a talking cabbage.

Hey! Leave Adric out of this!

 

[The Wormhole]

A sarcastic, foul-mouthed iguana. Who does nothing bu sit on the Doctor's shoulder and make smart-ass comments about everything. And a squirrel that sits on the console looking confused.

 

[Mr. Adventure]

A little kitten, K-10, awwww

 

[Redfern]

Let's put a "spin" on that. A cat rescued from cyber-conversion that he calls KIT-10.

Uh, I'll get m' coat.

Sincerely,

Bill

 

[RoJoHen]

He should get some kind of telepathic lizard that doesn't actually talk but that he can yell at from time to time.

 

[Green Lantern]

Or he just keeps having human girls as pets.

 

[Redfern]

Well, in "The Doctor's Wife", Idris did say the Doctor continually brought in "strays". So from the perspective of the TARDIS the traveling companions ARE little more than "pets".

Sincerely,

Bill
