My Exotic Pet

Finally retiring down to sunny Tampa, and moving into an old house, noticed there was a bad termite problem which I had to trouble shoot somehow, my neighbor being into exotic pets, suggested one that would help me the best, paying him the exorbitant amount, I took home my new exotic pet, letting her wander around her new dwelling, she quickly started sucking up the little pests, and just like a vacuum cleaner, even got all the pesky ants, I thought this was a great investment, not having to inhale any poisonous fumes, as my new exotic pet, followed me from room to room, I decided to call her Annie, because I'd become so fond of her, she was just like an exterminator, just a more furry one, the only negative thing about her, was her long Freddy Krueger like claws, which I had to trim every other day, because they'd start to curl, and speaking of that, she wasn't just a practical vacuum with her long tubular snout, when I'd take her for walks around the park, she'd even defend me from an assailant, beyond a shadow of a doubt.
