10 Best Star Trek Pets

10. Targs

It turns out even in a race of people whose only goal in life is to crush every single one of their enemies under the mighty boot of the Klingon Empire, there is still some room for fuzzy companionship.

Admittedly the Klingon version of boars, called Targs is less of a "fuzzy companion" and more a hardened beast that has separate subspecies that look like either a boar or a dog.

The time we see one of the boar Targs is in an episode of The Next Generation, where the crew has flashbacks to their past lives before their adventures aboard the Enterprise. Lt. Worf has a flashback to one of his pet Targs on Qo'noS.

A Targ really is just a boar with spikes, meaning this pet won't be the best kind for cuddling with when sleeping in bed, but they seem adorable nonetheless. And really who wouldn't want a unique boar to walk around town with.
