how many of you, had a couple of standard pets such as dogs or cats as children? Growing up I had a Miniature Poodle named Bridgette. We also had rabbits (HB and CB), fish, and turtles. - how many of you had close contact with more unusual species of animals as children? Later in life we had a pet skunk. When I was pregnant with my first son, the skunk use to take afternoon naps with me. I think we got the skunk when I was about 18, and had her until I was close to 27 anyway. She was cool. It was not until I got married, I acquired my zoo.
