Yellow-crested Cockatoo
The Yellow-crested Cockatoo (Cacatua sulphurea), also called the Lesser Sulphur-crested Cockatoo, is a medium white parrot with a yellow crest. Prized for its looks, it has been heavily trapped and is now listed as Critically Endangered. Loud, social, and highly trainable, it needs a large cage, chew-proof toys, and an owner with real time to spare.
Dutch Rabbit
The Dutch Rabbit is a small, distinctly marked pet rabbit with a white inverted-V on the face and a sharp color split between front and back. Gentle, smart, and nearly odorless, it needs timothy hay, a chew stick, steady 25–32°C, and a wire-free, dry cage. Lifespan about 5–7 years.
LionHead Rabbit
The LionHead Rabbit is a small, gentle pet rabbit named for the ruff of long fur around its head that looks like a lion's mane. Originating in Belgium and bred in the Netherlands and US, it is sturdy and clean, needs daily coat care and a wire-free cage, and lives 5–7 years.
Discus
The Discus is the 'king of tropical aquarium fish,' prized for its round, vividly patterned body and calm schooling nature. A cichlid from the Amazon basin, it needs a large, stable, warm soft-water tank kept as a group, and lives 5–6 years on a careful 'four-fixed' feeding routine.
Neon Tetra
The Neon Tetra is a tiny, peaceful characin from the Amazon basin, famous for its iridescent blue stripe over a red one that shimmers as it schools through a planted tank. Easy to keep in dim, acidic soft water at 22–24°C, it lives 1–2 years and is sensitive to sudden water changes.
Taisho Sanshoku
Taisho Sanshoku, commonly called Sanke, is one of the two representative koi varieties alongside Kohaku. Bred in Japan during the Taisho era (around 1915), it is a red-white-black tricolor koi whose appeal lies in the placement and quality of its black sumi markings over a pure white-and-red body. Its care is the same as for any koi.
Halfmoon Betta
The Halfmoon Betta is a tail-form of Betta splendens whose caudal fin spreads to a full 180 degrees (or more, in the prized Over-Halfmoon type), resembling a half moon. A labyrinth fish that breathes air at the surface, it is easy to keep but must be housed alone or with peaceful tankmates because males fight.
Guppy

Silver Arowana
The silver arowana (Osteoglossum bicirrhosum) is a large, dragon-shaped fish named for its silver scales; adults reach 90–100 cm. It needs a big covered tank, plenty of light, and a meat-based diet of shrimp, fish and insects.
