Rebecca the Raccoon was sent from Mississippi to be part of the White House Thanksgiving meal. But the Coolidge family decided to keep her as a pet instead because it was so friendly and nice.

2. Calvin Coolidge’s pygmy hippo
The story of the arrival of Billy the pygmy hippo started when Harvey Firestone, a millionaire mogul at the helm of Firestone Tires, found a baby pygmy hippo somewhere around the plains of Liberia and decided to keep him. But Billy grew up fast and suddenly wasn’t so cute anymore. He was 600 lb, over six ft long and very expensive to feed, even for a millionaire. So Harvey presented Billy as a gift to the President who was very glad to accept it.

1. Theodore Roosevelt’s Josiah
This little badger was gifted to Theodore Roosevelt during his railroad tour of the American West by a 12-year-old girl named Pearl Gorsuch. Roosevelt brought it home with him and gave it to his son, Archie. Archie was known to have said that Josiah bit people’s legs sometimes, “but never bites faces.” We guess that’s pretty good.
