A sloth is generally not a good pet due to its specialized dietary needs, slow metabolism, and specific habitat requirements, which can be challenging to replicate in a home environment. They also have unique social and environmental behaviors that can be difficult to accommodate, leading to potential stress for the animal. Additionally, sloths are typically nocturnal and may not engage in the same way as more traditional pets. Overall, they are best appreciated in their natural habitat or in a sanctuary rather than as domesticated pets.

Where can you get a slow loris pet?

Sloths are not for sale to the general public as they are regarded as a threatened species. If somebody were to have one as a pet, the sloth would not have enough room to remain happy (suprising I know!) and they would be very smelly. If you are interested in seeing and working with sloths then perhaps working in a sloth sanctuary as a volunteer would be a good idea. Simply search for it on google and there are many available although they are unpaid
