New pets that should be added thread

I think we should be ethical and realistic in our choices of pets.

What would campuses allow?

What would you not get rid of after a year?

Realistically, the only pets you should have are ones you could have at basically any age im your college dorm.

Fish, sea cucumbers, turtles, and other aquarium-dwellers are a good choice.

Lizards, snakes, frogs, and other terrarium dwellers are also good.

Hamsters and mice are cool too but have already been done.

Cats, dogs, bunnies, and small birds; despite being conventional pets, are less likely to be good at a college.

The ethics of owning a pig which will quickly outgrow its cuteness and start eating all your 2 minute noodles and snore while you try to get rest before finals is mot a good idea.
Tigers, monkeys, etc. Belong in the wild.
No predatory animals, such as foxes, which might attack your room mates and friends.
No cows or goats or other grazers.
No sharks.

Screw your heads on.

I mean, if we're discussing what's allowed in dorms, at least where I live you're not even allowed a fish. Zero pet tolerance. However, as a uni student, I have never lived in dorms nor have most of my classmates. Most of them rented rooms/apartments or live w parents, all places where you can have most types of pets

Same actually.

But as for what Kefo said, I think it’s bold to assume that college students wouldn’t just sneak the animal in too 😂 Like I don’t see why the pets should be realistic, since some of the in game items aren’t crazy real looking.

Plus, do we have a hamster pet already and I’m just dumb? I thought we have a rat.

One of my exes did live in dorms and someone on her floor snuck in a goldfish. The cleaning lady flushed it down the toilet =/

I’d actually cry.

But my friend snuck a hamster into her dorm once, and they would just hide the cage in the car and put the hamster in one of those little travel cages.

It sounds stressful and tedious to me, but I guess it’s worth it if you really like the pet.

My boyfriend's sister is in her 3rd year of college and she's gone through like... maybe 4 semesters of illegally housing a dwarf hamster named Timmy in her dorm room.

I love that! Even if it is a service animal pet style for pre-existing ones. 😁

I could see a style being implemented! Or if they add levels in the future I think it would be cool for the service animal style to be a higher level since service animals generally need to be trained a specific way.

Or maybe I just think that notion would be cool 😂

Yo seeing service animals would’ve been so cool for this hunt

People like to keep spiders as pets.
What about an ant farm that increases in size the more it's upgraded?
Stick insects are cool
Cockroaches
Millipedes
Giant desert centipedes
Scorpions
Butterflies
Silk worms
All manner of beetles
Cockroaches
Grass hoppers/crickets

There is a world of possibility with insect pets

and we still don't really have aquatic pets.

That's cool. Maybe the level-unlock requirement styles could be it increasing in size. Like level 10 is bigger than the start, level 20 is bigger than level 10, etc.
