Parrots are pets that need time to cultivate, and no one wants to buy a parrot that can't talk to enjoy it.
Totoro is actually a species that needs the company of its owner. If you spend less time together, you won't be close to your master.
I think giant salamander should be an ornamental pet. Anyway, you can't cultivate feelings, and it's expensive to eat as an adult.
If you cultivate from the emotional category, then the first choice must be parrots and chinchillas.
Lizards and pythons are ornamental pets as long as they are treated well, live and have no emotional communication.
However, ornamental pets are also good decorations for home decoration.
Everything depends on you. I hope my answer is helpful to you.
