If so, pictures please. Pictures of common pets are welcome too. Bonus points for skunks.
We have an odd duck.

I love snakes! So cute!
Not all too uncommon, but they’re a fun distraction from work.
They look fun, are they loud?
They make a lot of sound, but I wouldn’t call it loud. I have only hens, no roosters.
Strictly not pets, but I’m getting my 2nd of 3 pre-exposure rabies vaccinations this weekend so I can work with skunks and the other rabies vector species (bats, coyotes, fox, groundhogs, raccoons) next spring!
While I haven’t been able to handle them, I have prepared their food. Out of all the baby animals formulas we have, skunk milk smells the best!
I joined up to work with the owls and other raptors, but all the animals we get are fascinating in their own ways.
What’s your experience with the vaccination so far? I’ve heard it can be pretty brutal in terms of side effects such as fever and more.
You make my day better, every day. Just wanted you to know that.
I always love to hear it. It makes my day better to talk to you guys about owls and misc other animals too.
Owl of the Year Qualifier starts sometime next month, so be sure to come play along!
Cats aren’t exactly uncommon, but my little girl is hairless so I think she might count?
awwwww kitty
I don’t have photos but used to have two cockroaches that I thought were both female but whoops, eggs laid and hatched into way too many more roaches.
Rejoice for you get to see vivivava in her true form
Got a leopard gecko. Not that unusual but more so than a cat, which we also have.
awwwww they’re cute
I don’t know if this would count as uncommon, but here are the guinea pigs,
