I was just thinking about what I should write that's pet and election related when I got an email from petplace.com that discusses the top weirdest presidential pets.

Here's some info from the email. Can you match the president with these bizarre pets? Here's the list of very strange pets:

  1. Pygmy hippo
  2. Alligator
  3. Elephant
  4. Zebra
  5. Antelope
  6. Bear
  7. Coyote
  8. Hyena
  9. Tigers/lions
  10. Wallaby

Try and match the list with these past presidents:

  • Calvin Coolidge, 30th President
  • John Quincy Adams, 6th President
  • James Buchanan, 15th President
  • Theodore Roosevelt, 26th President
  • Thomas Jefferson, 3rd President
  • Martin Van Buren, 8th President
CLICK HERE for the answers and some other interesting presidential pet anecdotes.

And if you want to learn even more and then some about all presidential pets, visit...WHAT ELSE? www.presidentialpets.com and www.presidentialpetmuseum.com.

Heheh! If...ahem..WHEN Obama wins...I can't wait to see who and what the next presidential pet(s) will be! Okay I know it will be a dog...but you never know! They might fall in love with this dog so much that they might just acquire a menagerie of critters.

btw...please disregard the political ads on some of the websites. This is a presidental pet post...not an avenue to push anyone's political agenda...LOL!!! But I am telling you to JUST GO AND VOTE!!! PLEASE!!!
