My soon-to-be-a-three-year-old keeps asking me if she can have a pet of some kind. For about a year now I've been stamping my man foot down and issuing an authoritative "No". Frankly, I can't be bothered with vets bills and I know that I'd end up being the one cleaning/walking/feeding the food-chain lowbie.
But now her birthday is fast approaching and, when I refuse, her eyes become glazed over with half-formed tears, her bottom lip quivers like a tramp in winter and my war-hardened heart melts enough to make me roll my eyes and say, "We'll see."
Well now I'm seeing.
Criteria:
Any thoughts?
(I know my post is rather negative, but, of course, I would love it and look after it properly.)

Criteria:
- No vets bills (in other words expendable).
- Easy to look after.
- Cheap to house.
- Cute (optional).
- No spiders, arachnaweirdos.
