    We actually have two pet-stores here ... sorta. We have the main one, and then we have Pets Unlimited. Our Pets Unlimited sells Pigeons, which is cool. I don't think I own any animal that you won't find at a pet-store. I own a Crawfish, which I got at my pet-store, but I also know people who don't have them in their pet-store.

    I own horses, which aren't found in pet stores, I guess.

    Various ones in the past, but right now only a few... I have a few kinds of snakes that I have never seen (and would be very surprised to see) in a pet store.

    That said, you'd be surprised what poor animals you can find in pet stores! Some of my more unusual 'finds' have been opossums and pigs.

    I ran across this article at Discovery.com, and thought about this thread -- its about the increase in exotic pet imports to the US and the dangers of that.

    You probably won't see a Jungle Carpet Python in a pet store, it's possible, but not likely.

    I also have a Prairie Dog which you won't find in a pet store as they are no longer leagel to sell.

    Ducks and a goat

    In the past I've had a squirrel, hedgehog (they do have them in pet stores occasionally) pigeon (they don't have them at our pet stores!)

    All I can think of right now, but we've had so many animals in the past so there could be more

    I do!
    In Canada you cannot find Common Snapping Turtles! If you do, call the SPCA ASAP!!! They are illegal to sell!!!! & in many cases illegal to own. I'm legal so no worries there. Already had the SPCA up my butt for 2 months, until they found the correct laws that state I didn't break any laws in owning Axle :P

    I think everything I own can be found in a petstore, although trying to find a mix that is the same a Rose would be a challenge!

    Although, Ferrets aren't too common and are still illegal to own in some states.
