Coolest Pet was Poll President Jackson's gray parrot. President Trump is said to be a germophobe, I think he shouldn't get a pet. What's the point of having a pet if you are afraid of them?
Donny Kong when someone tried to assassinate Jackson and failed, he beat the would-be assassin with his cane so hard the bystanders had to protect the assassin so he wouldn’t die
Andrew Jackson was also in between 5 - 100 duels and killed a man named Charles Dickinson, that called Jackson “a worthless scoundrel, a paltroon and a coward”.
@OUTLAW NEVADA Dude. No offense to you at all, but a lot of what you just said was wrong. Grant wasn't a drunkard. In fact, many political opponents tried to spread that rumor to make him seem bad (www.quora.com/What-was-Ulysses-S-Grant-like-in-real-life ,or you could do some further reading if you'd like). From what I've read, he was actually a nice person. He made large efforts to better life for African Americans during the Reconstruction. (Side note- many historians actually say he was a skilled general, so your comment on that confuses me) However, it's not fair to say he should be hung- I don't believe he, nor anyone like him, was deserving of such a terrible fate like that solely because of his army-leading and presidential capabilities, especially with his *straight up abusive childhood and lack of self-worth in life.* He ended up dying of throat cancer anyway. (I can provide more sources on this if you'd like)
To clarify: Calvin Coolidge wasn't like "Oh yeah let's eat a raccoon," a supporter from Mississippi sent her to the White House suggesting for Rebecca to be served as a Christmas Dish. Grace Coolidge instead decided to keep her as a pet, Calvin was likely just like "Fuck it, more animals."
@@iammrbeat I know this was way before 1904, but they had to remove the alcohol from the White House after Jackson was inaugurated to get the large mob of people out.
There’s another story that at a dinner with important guests he fed one of the cats from his fork and his wife was upset by that and he said “if the silverware is good enough for Buchanan it’s good enough for my cat” I don’t remember which cat it was
Thank you. What a terrific story. If only we had video of that! I read somewhere else that the executive mansion staff wasn't fond of the goats because they were messy. Apparently there was a dispute once and Lincoln sided with the goat. As if Lincoln wasn't already cool enough!
Jackson's parrot was named Poll and he was originally his wife's pet, but after her death in unfortunate circumstances, the parrot spent more time with the Old Hickory and probably soaked up some of his more frequently used phrases.
In the BBC show Horrible Histories, they did a sketch of Jackson's funeral and due to the main audience being kids, the swears were replaced with children's insults and silly words. Eventually in the scene, they 'skipped along to the gun salute'...
@@candicehoneycutt4318 President Lincoln pretty much was the original cat guy but he also loved his dog. In fact when he was forced to leave Jip behind he left specific instructions that Jip was to be allowed on the couch. A true animal lover.
Not very strange, most hunters are also animal lovers. Just look at the relation they have with their dogs and hounds. A hunter who isn't an animal lover is just a gun nut on a wilderness walk.
His favorite song was called Dixie if that tells you anything. It was actually the confederate anthem, and oddly enough, an extremely catchy song that you can even listen to on Spotify.
I was surprised to hear about Lincoln's dog named Jip (I wonder if that's where my brother got the idea? He was quite a fan); but the numerous cats made total sense.
I can't believe there is a museum dedicated to presidential pets! And only about 40 minutes from me. I live in the surburb of Baltimore. I really want to see this!
when me and my friends found out about tax reduction and budget bureau we lost it I love those guys. very excited to see them get their much deserved publicity
@@tobytawaqal3678 Wait…really? I know Mark Twain named one of his cats Beelzebub (he was a really colorful man which I’m quite proud of because he spent his last years in my hometown up in Connecticut. My town’s local library was named after him and the library would host a frog frolic in honor of Mark Twain plus my dad and I would hike near where his house in Redding was. It’s gone now and the property was, when I was still up in Connecticut, private. So yeah Redding is really proud of Mark Twain despite the fact he wasn’t a native New Englander) but a president had a dog named Satan. Now I heard everything.
You know how excited you will be to see your friends when the quarantines are over? That’s how pets feel when you leave for the day, and come back home. Sympathize with their chaotic over the top reaction, now?
Pretty accurate. My dogs will freak out the minute someone leaves and charge at the person coming through the door with affection. Pets are social creatures.
You missed a lot of key details about some of these animals: *Blaze Roosevelt attacked Fala, and was euthanized for his misbehavior. *Tiger Coolidge frequently wandered through Washington DC alone and was always returned to the White House by a good samaritan. Coolidge then started to put a collar on Tiger, who was later presumably stolen and never heard from again. *Pushinka Kennedy's mother went to space *George H.W. Bush's dog Millie was the mother of George W. Bush's dog Spot Fetcher. *Socks Clinton got tons of publicity and deserved more attention in your video *Halfway across the world, Indians rioted because of George Bush's cat name.
I think people probably take better care of their pets these days, or at least think of their pets as more of a commitment than they did in the past. Like with cats, yeah people in the past enjoyed their company, but they were also largely seen as live-in exterminators who would come and go as they pleased. Whereas nowadays people mostly keep their cats inside and rarely have use for their hunting skills. Also, there's a book about Lincoln's dog called "Abe & Fido" and IIRC, Fido had also been a stray who, even after being adopted by the Lincolns, mostly lived outside and was actually left in Illinois when the family moved to DC.
I feel like having exotic animals at the time before our country and world really cared about protecting these animals was a show of status and wealth. Of course, people still do try to keep those animals today.
One of my favorite stories about the President's pets is how JFK's dog, Charlie, had a “romance” with Pushinka, which is a direct descendant of Strelka, one of the first living beings that successfully completed an orbital flight, making it back alive, alongside Belka and other animals. Pushinka was a gift from Nikita Khrushchev to JFK back then. The mentioned puppies that came from that “romance” between Charlie and Pushinka still have descendants to this day.
Excellent video! You clearly did a ton of work researching this, I learned a lot more about a topic I thought I already knew a lot about. All the photos and paintings you included were fantastic and some of them I hadn't seen before. Great job! P.S. I think the president's lawyer would be a little upset if he ended up getting a ferret like you suggested.
lol well ferrets are so cool. Thanks for the kind words. You picked a perfect topic. Not only did I have a blast making this, but I also think the video will do well.
The story I heard about Quincy Adams' alligator was that the people of Florida had given Lafayette the alligator while he was on his grand "reunion" tour of America. He had no idea what to do with it, but couldn't just abandon it because that could get in the news and make him look bad, so he just gave it to the President to save face. And of course Quincy Adams couldn't turn it down because it was given to him by the famous Revolutionary War hero and that would *also* look bad in the press.
I remember when this channel only had a few thousand subscribers, it’s amazing to see how much this channel has exploded. Congratulation to you Mr. Beat!
I wouldn't. Ferrets stink. My dad had one and my mother made him get rid of it after it got inside her nightgown while she was wearing it. That was the last straw.
Pushinka's mother was a soviet space dog named Strelka. After surviving a trip on Sputnik 2, she had a litter of puppies and Pushinka was given to the Kennedies by the Soviets. I'm guessing it was framed as a goodwill gift, but there was probably a good dose of 'take-that!' smugness to the gift as well.
Odd story, but there was a television show on Animal Planet called “Dogs 101” which discussed the characteristics of different dog breeds that I use to watch all the time. There was one episode about dogs that were owned by Presidents and that was what got me interested in history. Anyway, great video Mr. Beat! 🐶
Thanks Lindsay, and good to hear from you. Thanks for sharing that. This is somewhat embarrassing for me to say, but what got me into history was watching Forrest Gump as a kid. :)
I like to imagine that conversation between John Quincy Adams and LaFayette. LaFayette: Can I stay at the White House? JQA: Sure LaFayette: Can I bring my pets JQA: Um, sure why not. (LaFayette walks in with an alligator) JQA:

I loved this video! I think Teddy obviously had the coolest pets, but can we really beat Tax Reduction and Budget Bureau. Talk about a power move. I think Trump needs to get a Bald Eagle cause why not?
OH no you really think Trump is anywhere near Teddy? The dude probably doesn't even own a gun. All of you Trumpsters got played and the Democrats got the last laugh.
Fun fact! Enrique Dupuy de Lôme had a letter that was published in newspapers in which he mocked William McKinley, attacked his policies, and called him as a weak president. So, I think it's hilarious that McKinley named one of his cats after him.
2:55 okay I'm half convinced that if the trail of tears never happened, the only thing Andrew Jackson would be remembered for is ' that one president who really liked fights and duels '.
He did kill people banks was a war hero an orphan owned slaves got almost killed as president and kept 2 tons cheese in the White House also his parrot got kicked out in his funeral for cussing even though I fucking despise Andrew Jackson he would be remembered still for stuff

Presidents are so basic these days.
Mr. Beat haven’t you heard of the Presidential Pet Name Reduction Act of 1986?
@Steve K Lol

I loved my animals. Especially that Turkey.
Yeah, you were drooling on that turkey. Also, Abe, I just knew that you were a cat man and fed strays.
Odd story, but there was a television show on Animal Planet called “Dogs 101” which discussed the characteristics of different dog breeds that I use to watch all the time. There was one episode about dogs that were owned by Presidents and that was what got me interested in history. Anyway, great video Mr. Beat! 🐶
Thanks Lindsay, and good to hear from you. Thanks for sharing that. This is somewhat embarrassing for me to say, but what got me into history was watching Forrest Gump as a kid. :)
Oh I loved that show, they used to do some cool graphics and they did a Cats 101 as well.
Andrew Jackson’s cussing parrot is a national treasure
I may not like JQA, but damn an Alligator is a bad ass pet.
Coolidge's two lions are up there.
I like to imagine that conversation between John Quincy Adams and LaFayette.
LaFayette: Can I stay at the White House?
JQA: Sure
LaFayette: Can I bring my pets
JQA: Um, sure why not.
(LaFayette walks in with an alligator)
JQA:
@@iammrbeat well it could be worse, imagine walking into the Teddy Roosevelt White House, seeing all those Animals.
The Coolidge White House does explain why no GOP senators wanted to meet with him though.
@@benselectionforcasting4172 Just imagine on Teddyies Hayena.... Cabinet, so your square deal has...wait a minute what is that under the table?
Teddy: My pet
Cabinet: Oh OK fine so where was I?
Another member of the cabinet: THERE'S A DARN HAYENA UNDER THE TABLE!!!!!!!!!
Everyone: AAAAAHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
teddy after his whole cabinet escaped the white house: come here to my lap my beautyfull hayena those dickhead bloodsucking politicans won't never understand your lovelyness
@@iammrbeat this broke me. JQA probably said: "I thought you had a dog, not an alligator!"
When he said FDR had a dog named Major, I thought he was going to say he was formerly a Captain. Lol
Everyone at Andrew Jackson funeral : he died this is so sad
His parrot: Saying every curse word in the English language
One leged roosters: exists
Theodore Roosevelt: This will be a good zoo attraction.

Life lesson
Trump had a Melania, a Pence and a McConnell
And they are all bats. 😏
Or parrots.
And Kamala had a biden
Hey man. Leave Melania out of it at least. I'd reckon Trump doesn't have pets because he is the pet. Putin's pet.
lol
I've heard Trump keeps a pet Acosta, you can find it at most of his public appearances.
You're telling me Grant "rode" Jeff Davis... yeah sounds about right
This probably your best presidential video yet! I also think Teddy Roosevelt wins in the great names for all his pets.
Well thanks Ross :D
@@iammrbeat You're very welcome sir. Although it may not be as fun as this video may I suggest something on Presidential plants? I'm sure John Quincy Adams would tower above all of them in the botany dept.
@@iammrbeat Also I recommend looking into Henry Ford's weird menagerie including his lion palace and "Duck Congress."
Ross Webster Nixon planted a bug in the Oval Office 😀
Thus true! I had many pets! But I love Billy best!
Tad Lincoln was known to ride his horse through the halls of the White House.
Mr Beat's cat yelling at him when he put her down was such a cat move
I loved this video! I think Teddy obviously had the coolest pets, but can we really beat Tax Reduction and Budget Bureau. Talk about a power move. I think Trump needs to get a Bald Eagle cause why not?
Oh wow, a bald eagle actually would make sense. :D
@@iammrbeat Just imagine he takes it on a state visit for intimidation factor!
Mr. Beat I’m surprised no President has had a Bald Eagle as a pet
I like the idea of parrot swearing like a drunk sailor.
OH no you really think Trump is anywhere near Teddy? The dude probably doesn't even own a gun. All of you Trumpsters got played and the Democrats got the last laugh.
I've watched a few of these videos today and Tad Lincoln is really a mood
Fun fact! Enrique Dupuy de Lôme
had a letter that was published in newspapers in which he mocked William McKinley, attacked his policies, and called him as a weak president. So, I think it's hilarious that McKinley named one of his cats after him.
Holy crap, that IS hilarious!
Andrew Johnson feeding the mice that lived in his bedroom is the only wholesome thing I’ve ever heard about him
Roosevelt also had many animals that were given to the National Zoo. Such as a Grevy's Zebra named Dan that was given to him by the Ethiopian Monarch.
As much as I hate Woodrow Wilson the fact that he had a cat named Puffins lessens my hate an iota.
As a mouse owner myself, I like what Andrew Johnson did lol.
i like to imagine if you had disagreements with teddy he would say "oh, now would you mind explaining all that to the hyena"
2:55 okay I'm half convinced that if the trail of tears never happened, the only thing Andrew Jackson would be remembered for is ' that one president who really liked fights and duels '.
He killed the banks
He did kill people banks was a war hero an orphan owned slaves got almost killed as president and kept 2 tons cheese in the White House also his parrot got kicked out in his funeral for cussing even though I fucking despise Andrew Jackson he would be remembered still for stuff
And cussing parrots.
teddy roosevelt having a shit ton of pets is the most teddy roosevelt thing ever
Emily Spinach!!!!!
A pretty darn good pet name.
James Angius Popeye’s first girlfriend before Olive Oyl 😀
US Grant having a horse named Jeff Davis is absolutely hilarious
1:50 “Dick that was favourite one”- Mrbeat
I figured you'd get a kick out of this: th-cam.com/video/sMrqcJI1nT0/w-d-xo.html
Honestly, you could've done one full video explaining all about Theodore Roosevelt's pets :)
At 10:13 i never realized how good the name ebenezer was for a Donkey lol
I refilled my tea right before Teddy Roosevelt because I knew I was going to hear the most pets from him.
5:23
I wonder if that started the tradition of the president pardoning a turkey during thanksgiving?
That went back to the 1940s actually
@@iammrbeatwhy was that?
3:25 So Martin Van Buren was the original tiger king
Yeah , cause no one had ever owned a tiger before him.
