A reddit for exotic pet owners and potential future exotic pet owners. Lets show people that not all exotic pet owners are crazy. Post about the pets you have, pets you want,, or any questions you have about be an exotic pet owner.

Rules

1 . No breeder discussion or help finding breeders

This is not the place to find good breeders for animals nor can anyone here help you breed animals. Anything involving exoctic pets requires tons of research and planning; through that process you should be able to find reliable, ethical breeders or adoption groups.

2 . No giving or asking for vet advice or requesting money to help pay for vet bills

When you get an animal you should prepare and have an exotic vet lined up. You should not seek vet advice on reddit. If you cannot afford a vet consider giving your animal up to someone who can afford it, or talking to the vet and potentially setting up a payment plan.

3 . No bigotry, homophobia, racism or other personal attacks

4 . No asking whether “x,y,z” is legal in your state.

It is your responsibility to research the laws in your area.

5 . No promoting or discussing inappropriate care.

This can be a difficult thing to describe but it is at the best judgement of the moderation team

6 . Owning exotic pets is a privilege, not a right.

Keep in mind that if the moderators feel a post is promoting bad ownership your post may be removed at their discretion. Also this applies to wanting to own dangerous/inappropriate animals as pets such as large cats
