Raising a monkey or a wild cat from infancy may not be too difficult. Taking on a kangaroo, for example, can seriously affect your entire lifestyle. Little baby animals look very cute. You are going to need lots of space, however, if your new addition is going to grow.

Then there is the problem of finding a Vet. Of course most Vets are very versatile and, with the internet, they can also access information about different animals and their diseases. However, it is better to find someone who has had experience working at a zoo for example.

Search the internet for websites advertising exotic pets. Or look through magazines. Smaller species are usually available at pet stores and of course these are appropriate for urban dwellers. A big guy is going to need space. Discuss the care and possible pitfalls with the breeder before committing yourself. Also shipment problems if long distances are involved.

You need to check out the regulations where you live. Some exotica are banned completely. Others may need licensing or registering. Your premises may have to be inspected to assess their suitability. Also investigate sources of appropriate foodstuffs.

Before choosing an exotic animal for sale discuss it with your family. This is a long term commitment. Make sure you have the space and the right surroundings before buying these animals.
