No, but can I tell you a nasty story? One time, I came home drunk from a party. When I turned on my light, I saw a cockroach. I decided to catch it. I grabbed a prescription pill bottle... small and see-thru. I stuck it on top of this big ol' roach and when he got inside, I put the top on.
Every day, I'd check on this nasty thing. I didn't give it any food or water... I just wanted to see if the theory was true. You know how people say that if humans are ever wiped out, cockroaches will be the only thing that survives? Well, this gross cockroach lived for 31 days with NO food and NO water. After it did that, I figured it deserved to be free so I let it go in the woods. Nasty.
It doesn't count as a pet because I didn't name it. ;-)

Yes, there are people who keep cockroaches as pets ... although I never would.
When I was in high school, a girl brought her pets -- Madagascar hissing cockroaches -- to school. EEK!
And not to be gross, but I worked at a fast food restaurant in high school too. We had a roach problem, so when we found them, they were sometimes put into a cup & named :O)

Yes. I keep them in a 10 gallon fish tank (without the water). I probably have 20 of them. They are spoiled. But anyway...I use them for pranks etc.

cockroaches are known to spread diseases, shouldn't keep as pets, dangerous creature, u shouldn't even be touching it, it's unhygenic.

No, if I see one, I call the pest control exterminator immediately. These are not pets. They are insects.
