Angora Rabbit
The Angora Rabbit is the fluffy 'grass-mud rabbit' kept for its superfine wool (11 microns, finer than cashmere). Gentle but high-maintenance, it needs shearing every 3–4 months and constant hay to avoid deadly wool block (hairball impaction). Lifespan about 5–7 years.
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.
Standard Gray Chinchilla
The Standard Gray Chinchilla — the original 'Totoro' — is a vegetarian rodent from the high Andes of South America. Gentle, clean, nearly odorless and long-lived (8–10 years), it needs a cage, dust baths, constant chewing material, and careful protection from heatstroke.
Green Arowana
The Green Arowana is the gentle, pale green-silver variety of the Asian arowana — less vivid and less costly than the golden or red forms, but unusually peaceful and mixable with other large fish. A big fish needing a covered 1.5 m tank at pH 6–7 and 25°C, it lives 10–12 years on a carnivorous diet of shrimp, insects, and lean meat.
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.

Sonoran mud turtle
The Sonoran mud turtle is an uncommon, nocturnal musk turtle from the southwestern United States and northern Mexico, notable as the only subspecies in its group with night-active habits. A medium-sized aquatic turtle, it adapts well to captive care once settled.
Lobatse Hingeback Tortoise
The Lobatse hingeback tortoise (Kinixys lobatsiana) is a relatively dry-adapted hingeback found in Botswana and South Africa. Though its range has two distinct rainy seasons, its habitat remains very hot overall, and it is seldom kept due to its rarity and similarity to other hingebacks.
Geometric tortoise
The Geometric Tortoise (Psammobates geometricus) is a rare, strikingly patterned South African tortoise protected as endangered. Extremely sensitive to humidity and a challenge to keep alive in captivity, it is best appreciated in the wild or by experts.
Kinosternon dunni
Kinosternon dunni, the Colombian Mud Turtle, is a semi-aquatic musk-turtle relative from Colombia's streams, mostly herbivorous and similar in looks to the narrow-bridged mud turtle. A prolific breeder, it benefits from a short, safe hibernation and a varied, plant-rich diet.
