Why do you want it? Honestly?

You don't want to feed it or devote any time to it so what would be the point?

Answer 3

Uuuumm this may sound weird but.... I have a crab a hermit crab he costed 10 dollars and the I found a 5 dollar goldfish but heres the twist he was 9 inches long.But if you want an animal fish or crab or anything you have to feed it every day and clean them about every week most likely.Fiddler crab $2 lives in small tank and is a small animal.Hermit crab-What I have-not that big lives in any size tank the 1 you have will do-eats pretty much anything fruits mostly-doesnt need to be cleaned much....if u pick up a crab it may fall out of its shell and die...it can pinch hard to. Forgive me if I may have mispelled. Hey you could get a rat or a freshwater stingray they're amazing.

Answer 4

I have a turtle, but u still have to feed it.  those special alpha fish i think that's what their called.  it seems you dont have to do anything for them

Answer 5

A gerbil, hamster or mouse. I use to have a ton when I was a kid. I kept them in 10 gallon tanks, with a secure lid to keep them in and other pets out. I would keep a small bowl in the cage for their food and hang a water dispenser from the side of the cage. It is very easy to see what level the food and water is at and they really only need replaced every other day or so. They are also very clean and don't make much mess. Usually they have a designated corner that they use as a restroom are. You will need to clean the entire thing when it gets too dirty or smelly however. Another good thing is that they do not stink at all, as long as the cage is kept clean.

Answer 6

how about hermit crab(s)?

but you still need to feed it every day...

not a lot of cleaning though...

a hamster doesn't need a lot of care but

needs exercise and attention from you just the same...

Answer 7

Here's an idea- don't get a pet! No animal can live healthy and happy with that kind of care. Every animal needs attention and care everyday, a small animal needs at least an hour out-of-cage time. You cannot take on a pet in your situation

Answer 8

My friend has a tarantula and a couple of emperor scorpions, and they are SUPER easy to care for.  He also has a leopard gecko, which is easy and fun to hold/play with.  The only thing he has to buy to feed all three are crickets.

Answer 9

fish

Answer 10

Pet rock. If you have no time or energy to devote to it, you can't have one.

Forgotten friends is a small non-profit all-volunteer organization dedicated to the protection and placement of homeless, abandoned, abused and neglected dogs, cats, puppies, kittens, and other animals. We provide a safe, secure, and healthy environment for a small number of animals waiting for a loving, caring adoptive home. We receive no payment for our efforts, only the personal satisfaction and sense of accomplishment we feel when placing a rescued animal into a loving home forever. Please save a pet with donations or contributions. We will use donated money to open a pet rescue in the Windham area, to try to improve the lives of local animals, and to make a real difference. We also accept aluminum cans and pet supplies. For more information or to schedule a pick up of donations, or to schedule volunteer time, please call us.
