Long gone are the days when all you wanted to do when you got home was cuddle with your kitten and play fetch with your golden retriever. Famous people have set a new trend. Check out these 5 celebrities with exotic tastes in pets. Most of them are cute, but some are dangerous and belong in the wild, not in a cage. Would you consider having a donkey as a pet, or do you think it’s just celebrity madness? It’s hard to say we wouldn’t do something similar, but you might want to consider having a kangaroo or a lion in your backyard, just for the sake of a little danger. Goodbye alarm.
This isn't a euphemism, nor is it an article about one of his upcoming roles. Nicolas Cage once decided he wanted to decorate his living room with an aquarium. Specifically, one that could hold an octopus. $150,000 later, Nicolas Cage got his wish. The reason for his bankruptcy? He claimed that the sea creature could help him become a better actor by allowing him to study other life forms. I guess a trip to the zoo would have been too cheap.
Last year, Justin Bieber's gift ideas weren't exactly creative. So his producer Jamal "Mally Mally" Bieber got a capuchin monkey and named him OG Mally. Here's the twist: When German customs officials discovered the exotic pet on Bieber's private jet, OG Mally was quarantined and Bieber couldn't do anything without the proper paperwork. The cute capuchin monkey ended up living in a German zoo with his other capuchin monkeys.
While we’re not huge fans of Mike Tyson, we had to include him in our top ten list because of his ridiculous pet choices. In addition to owning million-dollar bathtubs and over 100 cars, Tyson at one point owned three tigers. Before 2003, when he went bankrupt after a divorce and costly lawsuit, he purchased three white Bengal tigers that cost him $70,000 each. With an additional $125,000 spent on a trainer to care for them and $200,000 on food, it’s safe to say Tyson didn’t exactly scrimp on his savings. When it was discovered that Tyson didn’t have the proper license for any of the three tigers, they were shipped to a sanctuary in Colorado where they could be properly cared for.
The Spanish surrealist artist didn’t limit his eccentric views to just his paintings. He filled his life with strange things and earned himself a reputation as a brilliant mind and artist, but also as an odd guy. And his choice of pets may support the latter claim. Although Dali didn’t own an anteater, he took the opportunity to take one for a walk and show it around Paris back in 1969. In addition to the anteater, Dali also owned an ocelot, a dwarf leopard.
Oscar winner and four-time Golden Globe nominee Reese Witherspoon loves pets, which is easy to see in her extensive family of animals. She has two donkeys (Honky and Tonky), two pigs, three goats, three dogs, twenty chickens, and a pony. She has claimed that owning so many animals helps her children learn compassion from an early age. At the same time, Witherspoon has not been afraid to let everyone know that she makes her children clean counters. After all, how else are they supposed to learn to be kind? Reese lives in Los Angeles with her family and a miniature farm that seems to be constantly expanding with all sorts of cute additions.
