Anyone ever kept a wild animal as a pet

[Chookchicken]

Where I live keeping “wild animals” is extremely hard. The closest thing I think you could keep would be a baby bird. Even then I think most people put them in boxes and take them to the vet. Even if you manage to raise the baby bird you are expected to realise it back into the wild.

There's nothing regular about me.

Your younger siblings are your pets?
Do you dress them up and push them around in strollers?

I've never heard of someone dressing up a wild animal and pushing it around in a stroller. Perhaps I'm missing something.

But no

I used to walk my sister on a leash.
Even made her a nice collar when I was little! Lol
