Turtles
Perhaps one of the easiest animals to care for. They eat and drink so slowly that you don't have to worry about feeding them for a week at a time.

Rats are a very good first pet to have. They are very cuddly and super smart to.

Fresh water fish
Easy enough. Give them food once every 2-3 days and clean their tank out once a month.

Snakes
The good thing is - they only eat once every 1-2 weeks. The bad thing is, its usually live mice when they do eat. Simple, but disturbing to watch.

Parots
Quite Easy to care for - if you give them eough food and water at a time you can forget them for days on end - but they will probably not forget you.

Goats
Tether them in the back yard, make sure they have water - and they will eat anything. Grass, trash, odd plastic toys, you name it.

Horses? Seriously I would suggest something smaller than a horse like tortoises, hamster, guinea pigs or fish
