So, figured I’d share some pictures of this here, some pictures of my clown sherbet!

Pt 2 of cute clown things since people seemed to like the first one-

Saw this one happen, a small clown enjoying some cotton candy and decided it was a good idea to dip it in their chocolate milk. Did not turn out well and their owner had to stop laughing before they ordered more cotton candy for the poor floof, the clown sniffling but also slightly giggling at the ridiculousness of it all.

Clowns making little nests of practically anything they can hoard.

Clowns putting things in their mouth like play dough or other things they’re not supposed to and if you try to stop them they *run so freaking fast oh my GOSH*

Bigger clowns putting smaller ones on their shoulders/head/somewhere on them high up so they don’t get stomped on.

If clowns are in a colony they make sleeping piles in tiny ridiculous places and are pretty cuddly, usually getting tangled in each other.

If your clown is up to it, dancing around and letting them try out their tricks with music is great enrichment! Only if they seem like they’re enjoying it however as some clowns may not enjoy the pressure of more spontaneous or fast paced shows.

Clowns being sassy is absolutely hilarious to me. Little squeaks mocking whoever they’re sassing, waving their props at people, pouting in corners, sticking out their tongues, for larger clowns simply picking you up and walking off with you like a overgrown toddler. Absolutely amazing.

Furthermore- BIG CLOWN CHAOS. so often I see love for the little guys but big long stilt walkers! Scare clowns with long arms and legs curling around their owners, them acting like overgrown house cats and wanting to be in your lap but are too big. Them picking you up and hugging you and being sometimes protective of their owner, they also sometimes get scared and hide behind things that are faaaar to small for them.

My new floof sherbert is adjusting well, got a lil area and some toys for him.

So some things I have learned being a first time clown owner! Not everything is always funny business, as of currently he doesn’t do a ton of tricks or other chaos but he’s pretty shy and the shop owner said he had been pretty banged up when they first got him, so hopefully he can get back his playful spirit soon. Furthermore, taking things slow is crucial. Don’t want to scare away your new friend. Also specific for my clown, he seems to like little pats on the head. Am very happy about this discovery.

Safe to say I will definitely have more updates about this little guy, am excited for him to warm up more!

Did not take long. So, welcome sherbet! Oh my gosh I love him- right after I took the picture he attempted to hide behind his bean bag and is rather skittish but the clerk, a older grandmotherly woman said he was just like that. Hope to bond more with the little guy and will update with more pictures of him soon. For now, gotta get him settled in and cozy in his new home!

So, having been doing a bit more research I have decided to adopt a clown for myself! I’m going to be adopting as there are always far too many in adoption centers, however I do know I am going to get the teacup (aka very small) variety. Aside from that, I’m excited to see what mini laugh inducing joy creating little fluff I end up with! Wish me luck ^w^

Ok I feel like it so some cute clown behaviors!

They’re generally pretty sensitive to emotions so if your sad they might preform little tricks for you!

Sometimes clowns paint the faces of their owners to “add them to their troupe”, don’t get angry because this shows that they love and trust you, and maybe consider wearing a minimized version sometimes to show you want to be part of their group!

Small scare clowns will jump out of random places and “scare” you, basically yelling boo or squeaking loudly if they’re not prone to talking. Acting scared and complementing their scaring skills makes them extremely happy!

Some clowns love stuffed animals/other props, and will carry them around like a comfort item. If they entrust you to care for their item while they do things that require being away from it PROTECT IT. This shows a lot of trust, so cherish it!

Honking! It’s typically a joyful thing and various trills, honks, squeaks, and chirps show a happy clown. Never punish them just for making noise, clowns are intelligent and can understand when it’s a inappropriate time if it’s explained to them.

First off, clown types! FYI I do not claim to include all of them these are just the ones I know about well enough about to give information.

The birthday clown- these clowns are good for people with children as they tend to be less threatening, however at times they can be slightly intimidating to smaller children, so keep that in mind. They range from around six inches tall to around five foot tall depending on what subspecies of birthday clown they are. Usually good to put toys and decorations in their enclosure that mimic birthday party or other celebrations, however always do what seems to best suit your clown. They usually have rainbow colors and are rather cheerful however sad birthday clowns do exist and deserve just as much love and care.

The circus clown- chaotic but definitely one of the more well known breeds, circus clowns have a wide variety of personalities, sizes, and colors. Some of their more defining traits are that they tend to have more visual jokes and talents and more movable clothing, however again these are generalized statements. These clowns enjoy having good open spaces to practice their tricks and such, but are social creatures so consider adopting two or more if you are not able to consistently socialize them.

Scare clowns- want to preface this by saying scare clowns are in no way evil. They simply view emotions differently. They take fear as joy so want to cause that for their humans, so if being scared constantly isn’t your cup of tea then perhaps consider another breed. However, if you are dead set perhaps consider getting a mixed breed or a very small one as they tend to be less scary to some. Scare clowns have the unique ability to stretch their arms, and sometimes legs much longer then normal, up to four times their original length. They are mostly carnivorous so this would help them catch their prey in the wild. They also are able to fit into extremely small spaces, so being aware of this is crucial for building good habitats for them. A enclosure with dim lighting, various prop weapons, and other somewhat spooky decor is usually a good fit. Keep in mind clowns are not toys, and there are plenty of other breeds that will look just as great (however if your adopting for looks you should not own a clown or really any pets especially if you don’t care about any other info). So don’t immediately pick scare clowns because they’re “edgy”.

Killer clowns- oh boy these are rather controversial. This is more of a warning then a “how to take care of them.” As personally I don’t support owning them unless you are extremely experienced and have a clown reserve to keep them on. They are extremely territorial, will kill and even sometimes eat humans, and are ambush predators so one could escape and be about to kill you and you wouldn’t know before it’s too late. many of these clowns are put to death for murder when in reality they are just protecting their territory, and humans really shouldn’t own them even as guards. If you think one is loose near you call clown control immediately as even if it’s a smaller one they can cause major damage to humans and pets.

Harlequins- the acrobatic, fun, typically mischievous clowns. They’re typically the ones who are able to win over damsels, usually charming and daring. Harlequins exhibit a variety of patterns however a common one is the diamond pattern, as well as a multi pronged hat similar to jester hats. They are relatively high energy, enjoying having at least one other clown around to either play the hero of or to annoy by stealing their spotlight temporarily. They do not need that much attention from humans as they are usually content to practice tricks, however a good dose of attention, complementing their lovely tricks, and even volunteering to play one of the parts for them is a great way to bond with them. Having lots of props, acrobatic equipment, and areas for them to play is crucial for a healthy and happy harlequin.

Pierrots- the hopeless romantic, complementary to the harlequins. They are typically sad which does not mean they are unhappy so much as they express emotions differently. They will oftentimes copy the tricks of other clowns and fail, however make sure to offer reassurance as these clowns are prone to having bad self esteem. Keeping them with a harlequin is usually a good idea however these clowns are more alright then most to simply be with their owner, especially the more small subspecies. Most have a white and black color scheme unless they’re a mix breed, in which case they can be various monochromatic color schemes (monochrome meaning one color).

I’m going to mention this is my view of them, feel free to request any clown types and note these are not based in reaserch of the “irl” clowns, simply setting up how they are in my writing. Aside from that thanks for reading! ^w^

Well. Seeing as I have become rather interested in the idea of adopting a clown for myself, I figured I’d share some info about them so I can help other new clown owners or those interested to make the best choice in what they adopt! So, I will make a few posts going over types, behaviors, nutrition, enrichment, and more! Feel free to ask questions or give suggestions, am happy to answer to the best of my ability!
