“Budgie. Or Chinchilla.”-Danny 

“A sweet fluffy rich kitty”-Grace

“Bird (upon request for clarification) I’d go regular bird”-Sheridan 

“Kitten. Golden”-Sofie 

“Pony, specifically the flutter ponies from the 80s My Little Pony”-Deirdre 

“A daughter, lol”-Katie

“A fluffy puff ball for makeup”-Oona

“A joey (baby kangaroo) lol” - Felix

“Hmmm definitely a sweet bunny” - Lucy

“African Gray Parrot?”-Jeff

“Chinchilla 100 p”-Amy Rose

“A very yippie dog” (upon request for clarification after I got worried they were annoying yips) “It has delightful yips and is cute like a loaf of bread. Like Gogo.” -Cliff
