Please spay and neuter your animals! While your newborn animals are cute, failing to do this allows your little darlings to add to the population of homeless pets. Adopt pets from your local animal rescues, there are plenty of animals just waiting for a home.

how does one buy an otter and own legally?

[–]I_LOVE_YOGAPANTS[S] 9 points10 points ago

i dont think they make good pets

[–]CPTSaltyDog 6 points7 points ago

I owned a goat as a pet before....once you have an animal that can eat everything and produce more poop than food it consumes it doesn't get much harder. Also it must have thought it was a mountain goat cause it climbed everything. it was an amazing animal though despite destroying everything.

[–]monkeyninjagogo 1 point2 points ago

My dad has PTSD from his time in the army... not from battle, but from "Goat Lab", where you had to wound a goat and keep it alive to pass the training. Anytime he sees a goat, he goes on a lengthy, expletive-riddled tirade about how disgusting goats are, and how much they must WANT to die. I don't understand that last bit, but his eyes go all murder-y so I don't ask.

[–]TheMadMule -1 points0 points ago

Wait what.

[–]CPTSaltyDog 1 point2 points ago

..men who stare at goats?

[–]Ozzy7 7 points8 points ago

Probably illegal to own one without a permit of some sort. Personally I think it's stupid to be keeping it outside its own natural habitat or at least a zoo.

Now before the downvote brigade descends, allow me to say it would not be a double standard to omit discussion of pet dogs and cats. We all know dogs and cats have a history of domestication over many, many generations. Especially if this particular breed of otter is endangered, we should be placing animals like this one at preserves for possible revival of the species.

[–]Hummer77x 3 points4 points ago

As someone who once thought owning an otter would be awesome before looking into it, this is correct.

Plus they seem to be kindof a pain in the ass to take care of.

[–]Ozzy7 1 point2 points ago

Plus they seem to be kindof a pain in the ass to take care of.

Exactly. Notice how most animals other than your usual dogs, pets, parrots (then again...), et al., tend to be a major pain in the ass to care for. We've domesticated cats and dogs so they can be cared for easily inside or outside the home with enough time spent training them. It's almost never the case we hear about incidents like vicious dog attacks without knowing the cause, whether it be the breed of the dog or owner upbringing. We have whole institutions like animal daycare centers and obedience schools and hundreds of different brands of foods for them.

But we have very little of any of the above for animals like otters.

[–]Furdinand 3 points4 points ago

That's probably a bad idea. A better idea would be to go somewhere where otters live and see them in the wild. I was staying on Orcas Island and had a pup that would hang out near our cabin.

I was just there in August, I love that place.
