  1. Australia has one of the highest pet ownership rates in the world (64% of households have at least one pet, which is higher than the UK and USA) The most common pet in terms of numbers owned is the Fish. However, more households own dogs than own fish, so it could also be said that Dogs are the most common pet.
    From the article linked below:
    “The national population of pet dogs and cats is estimated to be 3.97 million and 2.47 million, respectively. There are nearly 9 million birds, more than 12 million fish and some 2.1 million other pets which include pleasure horses, rabbits and guinea pigs and other small animals.”

  2. Lol these answers are funny. I think the platypus is the common house pet. A good tub buddy for the kids.

  3. Wrong, wrong wrong.
    It’s a Vegemite. You can find these in everyones home over there!

  4. DOG? Like in any other country.

  5. We have a pet kangaroo named Bruce and two pet crocadiles named Lucy and Desi the crocs live in a large pond surrounded by a fence and we feed em dead chickens

  6. Dogs I think, although we have cats (we live in Oz obviously) Oh no, wait a minute, the most common pet is a KANGAROO – with a Vegemite as its child. Vegemites can get nasty if they don’t get their daily clipping :)

  7. Spiders the size of plates?
    No seriously, I have no idea. I would imagine dogs and cats are fairly common everywhere.
