(can you keep an anchovy as a pet at home)

apparently, it's an open-sea fish, it swims fast; home aquariums can't provide enough space, its water needs to be changed constantly, it smells bad... well, are these obstacles for me to keep an anchovy as a pet? yes. did i give up? yes. so did i change my mind? yes.

a rabbit, apparently, eats everything, gnaws on things; it isn't a house pet, it goes against its nature. 

a dog supposedly costs at least five hundred ytl a month. i already cost that much to maintain myself. besides, instead of adopting a dog, i'd just start smoking again and get more of a return on my investment. plus, the animal shouldn't be subjected to the adnan oktar treatment; you have to take it outside for walks. 

cats are also really flimsy animals, they get sick immediately. apparently, they can't form bonds either. what am i supposed to do with an animal that doesn't love me? what did john lennon say? "love is wanting to be loved." 

 as for a turtle, you only keep one if it's going to outlive you. you take care of it so much, it dies, and you get sad. but man, they are such ugly animals. they couldn't even make this animal look cute in disney movies. depriving a person of their liberty comes with a price, and this price must be paid with cuteness.
