Happy day after Thanksgiving and I pray that you and yours had a good day of being thankful and being with each other. It is Pet Friday and today we are going to look at 10 Unusual Pets that one may own. A few may surprise you! Can we say Pepe La'Pu? The following is brought to us by "detechter.com". Personally I am good with most except for the last few on this list. *Starts to sing "I do not like spiders and snakes ....":
"If you are thinking about getting a unique pet, there are a few unusual pets you can own these days. Owning a pet is a huge responsibility, but owning an unusual exotic pet can be a full-time job.
1. Fennec Fox
Although most foxes usually make bad pets, the Fennec fox is an excellent pet to own. This cute desert animal tends to be small (they are smaller than cats) and smart. You can even housetrain your Fennec fox to use a litter box. The Fennec fox is playful, requires a lot of exercise, and poses no threat to public safety. When fully grown, your Fennec fox will be about the weight and size of a Chihuahua.
2. Capybara
While the capybara is a rodent, it is nothing like a guinea pig or hamster. The
capybara grows up to 4 feet long and weighs more than a hundred pounds. In
some areas, capybaras are illegal to keep as pets, so make sure that there’s no
exotic pet legislation where you live. Capybaras are the high maintenance animals and they need plenty of room and a pond or pool.
3. Miniature Donkey
The miniature donkey is cute and fuzzy, but if you decide to own this unusual pet, be ready to buy at least two miniature donkeys. The thing is, mini donkeys like company and they can’t stand loneliness. Although miniature donkeys are small, they still need plenty of room. They are usually at least 3 feet tall and weigh over 300 lbs. Miniature donkeys are great with children and they pose no threat.
4. Hedgehog
Despite their spines, hedgehogs are incredibly friendly and they can become
extremely affectionate with their owners. Hedgehogs make perfect pets since they’re calm and low maintenance, though they require lots of attention, especially when they’re small. Before you buy a hedgehog, make sure you check the legislation in your area. Hedgehogs are nocturnal, so if you are not a night owl, it’s better to choose another unusual pet.
5. Skunk
Have you ever thought about keeping a skunk as a pet? In fact, a skunk makes an excellent pet, of course, if you have their scent glands removed. However, you should be dedicated to the skunk, because they can’t be released into the wild when their scent glands are removed. A pet skunk is easy to look after and this adorable animal requires little care. Skunks are playful and they can entertain themselves with different toys.
6. Spotted Genet
Spotted genets are originally from Africa, and they are great pets for those who love independent animals. Genets are very active and strung. They look like a cross between a ferret, a cat and a raccoon. Since the spotted genet is considered to be an exotic pet, you might not be able to have one as a pet in your area. Spotted genets are very skittish and they do best in a home where they’re the only pet.
7. Pygmy Goat
If you don’t want to own a miniature donkey, maybe you’ll want to have a pygmy goat. Although pygmy goats are high maintenance pets, they are extremely fun and active. Despite their small size, they can be very noisy at times. Like miniature donkeys, pygmy goats can’t stand loneliness. Before buying these animals, make sure you have plenty of space, grass hay and leaves. Also, make sure your structure for your goats are sturdy because they can easily escape.
8. Sugar Gliders
Known as pocket pets, sugar gliders are cuddly, tiny creatures that will bring plenty of joy to your life. They are incredibly playful, loyal and they can be taught numerous tricks. The sugar glider is one of the best exotic pets for both families with older children and singles. Keep in mind that sugar gliders are nocturnal by nature and they like to stay up at night.
9. Tarantula
Giant spiders are certainly unique and they can make good pets. However, it’s important to find out which species must be kept in tanks. The Mexican red knee and curly hair tarantulas make great pets. Tarantulas feed on live insects and they are not a good pet for the squeamish. Many people find tarantulas terrifying, but if you find them absolutely fascinating, why not own one?
10. Boa Constrictors
Snakes are not the perfect pets, but boa constrictors are much friendlier than any other snake. Boa constrictors are amazing and quite safe animals to have as pets. The huge problem is their size – boa constrictors grow very large. Before buying one, make sure you have plenty of space. Not every state allows exotic pets, but there are many wonderful non-exotic animals that you can own these days. If your state allows exotic pets, consider having one of these ten most unique pets. Do you want to own an exotic pet?

Most of these are very cute, but I will skip the snakes who may have a crush on you so to speak, and the spider. I hope you enjoyed today's pet Friday.

I have lost a lot of faith with the Medical Community and the Governments over the last several years, but there are a few good things that can raise above the corruption and the pushing of drugs a new approach to heal people. The following is from www.gaia.com and written by Hunter Parsons that does not involve any drug or pushing an ineffective so called vaccine that the drug company is not held accountable in any way but they use sound! The use of sound can regrow bone tissue! Here is the story:
"The future of regenerative medicine could be found within sound healing by regrowing bone cells with sound waves.
The use of sound as a healing modality has an ancient tradition all over the world. The ancient Greeks used sound to cure mental disorders; Australian Aborigines reportedly use the didgeridoo to heal; and Tibetan or Himalayan singing bowls were, and still are, used for spiritual healing ceremonies.
Recently, a study showed an hour-long sound bowl meditation reduced anger, fatigue, anxiety, and ...
Not a fan of a Defense Agency studying Anti-Gravity and other Exotic Tech, but if the commercial world and make this technology cheap that will change our world yet again. The following is about three minute read and from www.gaia.com. The below was written by Hunter Parsons:
"Wormholes, invisibility cloaks, and anti-gravity — it’s not science fiction, it’s just some of the exotic things the U.S. government has been researching.
A massive document dump by the Defense Intelligence Agency shows some of the wild research projects the United States government was, at least, funding through the Advanced Aerospace Threat Identification Program known as AATIP.
And another lesser-known entity called the Advanced Aerospace Weapons System Application Program or AAWSAP
The Defense Intelligence Agency has recently released a large number of documents to different news outlets and individuals who have filed Freedom of Information Act requests.
Of particular interest are some 1,600 pages released to Vice News, which ...
As our technology gets better we are discovering more about the history of mankind and pushing the timeline back further and further. The following article is from www.gaia.com and written by Michael Chary that discusses this new find that changes the historical timeline:
"Over the past decade, there have been a number of archeological revelations pushing back the timeline of human evolution and our ancient ancestors’ various diasporas. Initially, these discoveries elicit some resistance as archeologists bemoan the daunting prospect of rewriting the history books, though once enough evidence is presented to established institutions, a new chronology becomes accepted.
But this really only pertains to the era of human development that predates civilization — the epochs of our past in which we were merely hunter-gatherers and nomads roaming the savannahs. Try challenging the consensus timeline of human civilization and it’s likely you’ll be met with derision and rigidity.
Conversely, someone of an alternative...
Not sure if you have heard of a show on YouTube called "The Why Files". If not you should check it out it is interesting and has some humor with it on different subjects. Last weeks was on a different theory how the Universe works and how main stream Science is attempting to shut it down like is always seems to do if it goes aguest some special interest. Today it is akin to what happened to those who questioned the Earth was the Center of the Universe that main stream so called Science all believed during the Renaissance period, They called any theory that the Earth was not the Center of the Universe misinformation. Does this sound familiar today? People laughed and mocked people like Leonardo da Vinci, Nicolaus Copernicus, Georg Purbach as crack-pots, conspiracy theorists, nut-jobs and they were suppressed and even imprisoned for their radical thoughts and observations. Again it sounds like today in so many ways. In any event this is a good one to ponder and see even if a bad idea ...
Seemingly chaotic systems like the weather and the financial markets are governed by the laws of chaos theory.
We all have heard about chaos theory, but if you have not or have forgotten what chaos theory is well here you go from interestingengineering.com:
"Chaos theory deals with dynamic systems, which are highly sensitive to initial conditions, making it almost impossible to track the resulting unpredictable behavior. Chaos theory seeks to find patterns in systems that appear random, such as weather, fluid turbulence, and the stock market.
Since the smallest of changes can lead to vastly different outcomes, the long-term behavior of chaotic systems is difficult to predict despite their inherently deterministic nature.
As Edward Lorenz, who first proposed what became commonly known as the Butterfly Effect, eloquently said, "Chaos: When the present determines the future, but the approximate present does not approximately determine the future.""
You may have heard the term about chaos theory as a butterfly flaps its wings in Brazil,...
I for one have lost trust in Medical Doctors due to COVID and reflection that they seem to push pills for everything and untested so called vaccines that is using a unproven technology because the Government and the Medical Boards of the State told them to. There are a very few exceptions. Thus they do not address the key problem just prescribe more and more pills to keep you alive an sick longer for them and Big Phama to profit from you. Will AI do any better? Well that depends on what was used for the training of AI. If it also pushes pills and vaccines without question then you have the same problems noted above. However, if the AI Training includes all possible forms of treatment and they zero in on the right issues for the true problem then there is possibilities they would be way better than most of the current Medical Doctors today.
The following is from an article from interestingengineering.com and written by Paul Ratner:
"A new study looks at how accurately AI can diagnose patients. We interview the researcher, who weighs in on AI's role ...
