No. Ocelots are not pets and cannot ever be pets really, because they are wild animals.

They look like normal cats but aren't. You can keep them as pets like Salvador Dali did but to be honest, I wouldn't.

No, wild animals do not make good pets at all. A large cat is a very bad pet because cats see any other animal as prey, so they would attack the small children in the family.

Legality depends on local laws. Some areas allow them, some do not. They are considered an endangered species in the United States and can only be held under a permit.
