>Nero’s tigress
It is said that Nero first saw her fighting in a Coliseum, where he was impressed by her ruthlessness. For she was said to cause more havoc than three other tigers combined. Thus, Nero decided to spare her life and keep her as his personal companion. He named her Phoebe.
A golden cage was built for her in the palace grounds, but she wasn’t locked up all the time. She was allowed to walk around and even when the Emperor had guests at his table! Of course, anyone who annoyed or irritated Nero in any way would end up as Phoebe’s dessert. It is also said that she was trained by a famous animal trainer which allowed Nero to fed her from his hand.

>Caligula’s horse
There is much speculation amongst historians as to why Calgula prized his pet horse so much. Incitatus had a stable of marble, an ivory manger, purple blankets, and a collar of precious stones. Dio Cassius has indicated that the horse had its own servants, and was fed food mixed with gold flake. How wasteful! Suetonius also wrote that it was said that Caligula planned to make Incitatus a consul. Furthermore, the horse “invite” dignitaries to dine with him in a house outfitted with servants there to entertain such events

>Caesar’s giraffe
After the campaign in Egypt, Julius Caesar decided to bring back to Rome a sundry of exotic beasts including lions, panthers and green monkeys. The most strange one was long-necked creature known as a giraffe. The Romans saw it as half camel and half panther, due to its spots. The historian Pliny thought the giraffe was a “wild sheep.”
Whatever the case, Caesar soon grew bored with his “pet.” He fed the giraffe to the lions in a Coliseum in front of a baying Roman public. His gesture, offering up his pet as a prize, may have been a sign of his wealth and magnanimity.
