Me? None. They're all cute, though. I will say that about two years ago, one of my former co-workers had the choice between buying a couch for her living room (she had no couch) or a sugar glider to keep as a pet. She chose the sugar glider. :lol:
 
I'd have to know how well they adapt to living in the house and how well they're able to bond with humans, before I'd dare do that.

Now, if I could own ANY exotic pet, and we assume I actually had the space, the resources, and the energy to care for one properly (which I do not IRL and therefore I would not take on the responsibility involved for real), I would prefer an African Serval.

(Now if someone ever invented a holodeck for real, that actually worked, I'd definitely have an "exotic pet" program to interact with animals like that WITHOUT any risk to myself or unintended distress to a real animal.)

(FYI a serval hiss is as versatile as a cat's meow and can mean many different things, unlike a domesticated cat's hiss.)
 
I voted for one of them 'thar Tasmanian critters..............

They look kinda cuddly and I bet they'd be fun to snuggle with in bed.

Plus I think that my young nieces and nephews would enjoy playing with one while on the backyard swing-set.

Come to think of it; I bet that batch of new-born kittens in the garage would love to have a new "mommy" to help rear them.
