The most common pet in the United States is a dog. However, some people like to get a little more creative with their pet ownership.
Rather than adopt a cat or raise a hamster, there are a few people who opt for something a little more off-the-beaten-path. For example, there are countless historical examples of people having cheetahs and deer as personal companions. In the modern day, some have, for better or worse, decided to keep tigers as pets.
