FORCE OF NATURE by Vincent Bardou Painting, Acrylic on Canvas 47.0 inch x 47.0 inch $3,349<\/p><\/div>\n

I don\u2019t know about you, but as a child, I thought a gorilla would be the perfect pet. Think about it: they\u2019re big enough to cuddle, with long fur that would be fun to play with, plus you could dress it up in cute outfits. To me, that would be the best pet ever, but for my mother much less so. In the end, we settled on a hermit crab, but I never stopped thinking about the gorilla that never was.<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/a>

Dolly by Igor Shulman Painting, Oil on Canvas 39.4 inch x 39.4 inch $2,010<\/p><\/div>\n

Pets can be a joy for many people in our lives. From dogs to cats to birds to maybe even horses, pets are a happy break from the stresses of our world. A quick cuddle with an animal you love can be the perfect medicine for a long, hard day. <\/span><\/p>\n

<\/a>

Defense Mechanism by Will Eskridge Mixed Media on Wood Panel 18.0 inch x 24.0 inch $685<\/p><\/div>\n

But who is to say that your pet has to be typical? From movies to music, exotic animals are all the rage from our films to novels.<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/a>

Hyena by Soso Kumaritashvili Painting, Oil on Canvas 59.1 inch (150.0 cm) x 47.2 inch (120.0 cm) $1,582<\/p><\/div>\n

Although these animals may be great onscreen and onstage, I think we can all agree that they might not be the best idea in reality. But that doesn’t mean that the exotic pet of your dreams is gone forever. <\/span><\/p>\n

<\/a>

Egyptian Monkey l by Cynthia Burke Painting, Oil on Wood Panel 18.0 inch x 15.0 inch (18.0 inch x 15.0 inch framed) $770<\/p><\/div>\n

Maybe you long for a dog but your severe fur allergy makes you reconsider. Maybe you have always wanted a tarantula, but your partner tells you the answer is never. But your dream pet can someday be yours as long as they live on your walls instead of a crate or your backyard.<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/a>

Three Koi Fish by Stephen Mitchell Painting, Acrylic on Canvas 20.1 inch (51.0 cm) x 29.9 inch (76.0 cm) $1,007<\/p><\/div>\n

As cool as having a tiger would be, I think we can all agree it would cause our lives to be altered drastically if we allowed a magnificent beast like that into our lives. <\/span><\/p>\n

<\/a>

STRIPES ON A ZEBRA by Cecile Hubene Digital on Canvas 22.0 inch x 22.0 inch $1,250<\/p><\/div>\n
