10 Marvel Pets You Wish You Could Adopt

Like most Symbiotes, the seventh spawn of Venom has had its fair share of hosts, but the latest host is by far the cutest.

After helping Eddie Brock reclaim Venom from a Kree super-solider, Sleeper chose to explore space using the Kree's body as a lifeless host.

With Knull on the way, Sleeper rushed back to Earth to help protect his family where it tried to bond with Eddie's son, Dylan. Due to Dylan's abilities, the bond failed, though he was able to control Sleeper in order to take down the Maker. Dylan had Sleeper take the form of a wolf to do this and had the symbiote cover Maker in napalm, which Hawkeye was more than happy to set alight.

After the chaos died down, Sleeper asked Dylan why he chose to have it turn into a wolf. He didn't have an answer, especially as he's not really a dog person. He guessed it was because he saw Eddie do the same thing with Venom at one point. Wanting to make Dylan feel a little better, the symbiote transformed into a cat form and has been living with Eddie and Dylan ever since.
