I want a quoll
Discussion
It seems this is the first time the word quoll has been used on PH.
How awesome do these guys sound? I'd love one, and if I didn't have my cat I'd seriously look at getting one.

He was obsessively clean, never failing to use a box of kitty litter for all excretions, dog-like in his love of play throughout his life. Bright and quick to learn, far more affectionate and attentive than a cat, intently curious, happy to play on his own but clearly happier to play with me, active particularly in the late afternoons and evenings and asleep at more or less the same times as me, puppy-like when playing even as an adult, careful to mouth without biting, content to fall asleep in my lap, generally very quiet with only 'purring', clicks or 'nark!' sounds rather than yowls or barks, no 'spraying' or other stinky habits, and generally fascinating.
Ok, so you all want quolls to die. What about these quotes?
'Perhaps the quoll would also an ideal pet for the family home. It can grow to up to 75 cm in length and weigh up to 7kg. It will even use a kitty litter tray if trained. Professor Mike Archer, former Director of the Australian Museum, once kept a quoll as a pet and was full of praise. According to Archer,
"I just can’t praise these animals highly enough as companions for human beings. They have all the good features in dogs and cats, and in my experience not a single downside."(1)
The view was echoed by Dr Paul Hopwood, a vet from the University of Sydney:
"If quolls are caught in the wild, their temperament can be quite fierce. But if they are captive bred they are gentle and socialised."(2)'
