Not content with petting domestic animals at home, or even some wild animals in the woods, some go so far as to welcome potentially harmful wild animals into their homes and workplaces. Sometimes this is simply out of sheer ignorance as to how dangerous and/or unhealthy this is, others may be fully aware of it and just see it as Worth It. This does not refer to cases where specific creatures that happen to be from species associated with pest status actually have practical roles, or have been sufficiently domesticated by someone who knows what they're doing. Not to be conflated with Friend to Bugs, though, as one can adore "cute" pests such as non-domesticated rodents while still hating bugs, or conversely adore the least pestilential of bugs while not letting the cute pests' cuteness cause one to treat them more like pets than one should. Contrast Reduced to Ratburgers, when a person's urge for contact with vermin derives from them being desperate enough to eat the pests. Can in some cases be an example of Pet Baby Wild Animal. See also Admiring the Abomination and Fluffy Tamer. Truth in Television, of course, but let's not single out specific real-life people for this! |

House once kept a rat he'd found in a patient's house (it gave him the "Eureka!" Moment necessary to the case), calling it Steve McQueen. Though he does on more than one occasion use him to test his theory and suggest that after it developed symptoms he might die from a "cane shaped object". | |

Ivan, the gorilla in The One and Only Ivan, lives in a cage in a circus-themed mall. His only issue with sharing the cage with insects sometimes - he was born in a jungle, after all - is that they don't talk. | |

Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles (2003): Splinter was originally a wild rat that Tang Shen found in the kitchen and, rather than killing him, fed him and made him her pet. After her death, Hamato Yoshi took him and gave him his name in reference to a proverb from his mentor about how revenge is like a "splinter". | |

The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion: One of the first Fighter's Guild quests sends you to help out a woman who has a "rat problem" in her basement. Turns out she actually likes having the rats down there; the problem is the mountain lions that keep killing them. The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim has a similar quest. Except this time the admirer is an insane mage hiding in the caves beneath the basement. He desires to use his rat army to get revenge on the people who ridiculed him. |

An episode of Reality TV show Hoarders featured a man who had given over his house to a horde of pet rats. He started with three. They escaped into the walls and began breeding in inaccessible corners, and he didn't have the heart to recapture the adults if it meant leaving the babies to starve. A year later, the cleanup crew left with 2,500 to rehome. | |

Fallout 4: Deacon seems to really like mole rats. When fighting them alongside the player, he'll offer quotes like "Do we have to kill these little guys?" or "Run away and burrow deep, little buddies." There's also a woman who's trying to domesticate some mirelurks, highly aggressive mutant crab monsters, to the point where she views them as her children. It doesn't end well for her. | |

Bob's Burgers: Linda likes to make up dramatic stories about the raccoons she sees in the back alley behind the restaurant, like Little King Trashmouth from "Two for Tina" and "Slumber Party", and Big Baby Pudding Snatcher from "Eggs for Days". In "Just One of the Boyz 4 Now", Teddy brings in what he thinks is a baby squirrel but is really a baby rat. Bob, understandably, wants it out of the restaurant, but Linda falls in love with it and insists on keeping it. Eventually, even Bob ends up fawning over it. |

Ratman's Notebooks has this trope as its central premise. Its unnamed Villain Protagonist is instructed to kill a family of rats which have colonized his mother's abandoned garden, but spares them when he sees how determined the female is to save her babies. He adopts the colony in secret and trains them to help him rob houses. | |

How to Train Your Dragon (2010) presents a more optimistic portrayal of this. Despite dragons having a reputation locally for being pests, Hiccup chooses to free the dragon he captures instead of killing it, secretly sneaks away to visit and feed it in the woods, and eventually becomes emotionally attached to it. It is through this that he discovers that dragons aren't as innately violent as they're made out to be, a realization that, combined with his observation of their behaviour, leads to both himself and his local community coming to understand them better and eventually live in harmony with them. | |

The Green Mile features Mr. Jingles/Steamboat Willy, a mouse found running around the death row cells. They decide not to kill him, aside from the Jerkass Percy, because of his unusual behavior: fearless in the face of humans, accepts food only from the regular guards, and his searching of the cells as if he's awaiting for somebody. Mr. Jingles adopts Eduard Delacroix when he arrives and entertains all with his spool fetching trick, even performing a show for the guards on another block. | |

My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic: Fluttershy is the show's Animal Lover — meaning very literally all animals (except for dragons, on account of a crippling phobia thereof) — and is often seen befriending spiders, snakes and similar creatures, which often appear in her following of Woodland Creatures. She's also a Friend to All Living Things, meaning pests adore her as well. This backfires in "Swarm of the Century", where she finds a cute parasprite, feeds it, and brings it home. On the way, it multiplies. The parasprites keep multiplying until they eat most of Ponyville. At one point, they think they've gotten rid of them... until they open the door to Fluttershy's house and another swarm flies out, at which point she sheepishly admits that she couldn't help herself and had to keep just one. Played with in "Bats!". Fluttershy takes pity on the fruit bats, evidently not considering them as disgusting as her friends do, although she isn't shown going so far as taking them into her home like she did in "Swarm of the Century". Although the vampire fruit bats at first appear to have pest-like role, and Fluttershy appears to only be defending them out of pity, they turn out toward the end to have their own valuable role in spreading seeds around. In My Little Pony: Rainbow Roadtrip, the gang's reaction to their ramshackle hotel room touches on the expected complaints — dust, clutter, busted furniture and the like — but when it moves on to the pests it's in the form of Fluttershy gushing about how at least they a cute little spider to keep them company. In the last issue of the comics' micro series, Princess Luna finds a possum out in the woods and takes it home. |

Ratatouille has Linguini befriending a rat named Remy and letting him into the kitchen, and later letting Remy's rat friends in as well. (This results in the closure of the restaurant once the health inspector finds out that Linguini had been letting rats touch the food.) | |
