Axolotl http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Axolotl The feature of the salamander that attracts most attention is its healing ability: the axolotl does not heal by scarring and is capable of the regeneration of entire lost appendages in a period of months, and, in certain cases, more vital structures. Some have indeed been found restoring the less vital parts of their brains. They can also readily accept transplants from other individuals, including eyes and parts of the brain—restoring these alien organs to full functionality. In some cases, axolotls have been known to repair a damaged limb as well as regenerating an additional one...

" Not sure if it counts as it's actually a pet you can own, but I would really like a red tailed boa constrictor! They usually don't get much larger then about a meter in length, and they are super friendly! As long as they are well fed of cause ^^ "
Sure you can own them (I guess depending on where you live). I use to own a breeding pair of red-tailed boas. They can get way longer than a meter. My female was six feet and the male was five feet. Snakes being friendly doesn't really have to do with whether they are well fed. It is really about how much you handle them. You could feed a snake every week, but if you don't handle it, it will go feral quick and get mean and defensive. All you have to do is handle the snake regularly to keep it tame. Snakes are great pets if you learn how to keep them properly.
Of the realm of non-human pets though... I'd befriend a flock of crows/ravens. A guard dog kinda deal. I pay a walnut a day for each bird and they go after any and all trespassers. Gonna teach them to go for the eyes too.
Also - crows make excellent pets. Can last more than 20 years. Now that's for real!
My parents have 3 cats, and they are all like children to me haha. They are still super playful, and kinda like puppies personality wise. But i REALLY want a chocolate lab. I think i might get one this fall when i go off to college.
A good and smart cat like the one I had. But you get the idea that's wanting lightning to strike twice..saw a wild river otter that took to some boaters on some nature show..had a hell of a personality. Come to think, a large bobcat that was raised with a family, learned to use the toilet by watching...eeerrrrrrr. It was a neat animal too.
