A photo of an animal you'd love to keep as a pet:
I've always wanted a pet bunny. But of course, I'm allergic to anything with fur, and couldn't even keep a hamster for more than a couple months (she got stuck in the couch once for five hours; another time got out of her cage and chewed a six inch hole in the carpet, plus destroyed a beanbag). And I'm a serial fish killer. I'm terrible with pets. The only ones I can seem to keep are stuffed. But one animal I really really really wanted when I was a kid is a koala bear.
I used to be nuts about koalas. It all started when my grandparents went to New Zealand when I was in the second grade and brought me back a stuffed koala toy. I. Loved. It. I named her Koala Lou, after my favorite book. She went everywhere with me. I think I even sewed her some clothes at one point. And since then I fantasized about having one for a pet. (I still kinda do...) I think maybe it's the ears. They're so fluffy!!
