Kind of surprised that I'm not seeing honey badger or wolverine or tasmanian devil.

Parrots can be extremely intelligent, but are still dinosaurs.

Yeah, bears for sure. Little teacup-size pet bears.

Miniature gm giraffe, about waist height. Cantering about with its tiny blue tongue. I love that little freak.

Donkey. Many have tried and gotten killed in the process.

Alternatively, Triceratops.

Zebra or giraffe. Not to ride, just to go on walks with.

I think a wombat would be cool to have around the place, assuming domestication allowed for some level of trainability.

One of my old uni lecturers was very keen on the idea of domesticating the spotted quoll. He reckoned they would make a great pet for those who would otherwise get a cat (a convincing argument actually).
