I’m Sure This Wild Animal Will Make a Great Pet

By Rocky Thompson on July 22nd, 2010

After all, it’s very cute and furry. It will adapt nicely to life in my suburban Des Moines home where it has no natural predators. Well, family, that baby skunk you brought home had rabies. Now you all need shots, and so do 6 other people who came into contact with you. We’ve also identified another 20 who will be tested for rabies, but I’m sure they would have all done the same thing - trying to offer a baby skunk a good home is a noble cause.

    shameless plug on the subject. As a medical student, I’ve had the crappy, crappy privlege of watching what this does to ppl (mostly 3rd world). It sucks. It’s horrible. Don’t touch cuddly wildlife.

    Read Palahniuk’s Rant. Rabies doesn’t kill you. It allows you to travel back in time and become your own great-grandfather, grandfather, and father.
