Did carolus linnaeus ever have a pet?

Carolus in fact did have a pet racoon. He adored his pet raccoon Sjupp, who had an affinity for "eggs, almonds, raisins, sugared cakes, sugar and fruit of every kind," who mugged students carrying such treats, and who never forgave anybody who refused him anything. But after a dog mauled the raccoon to death, Linnaeus promptly dissected it.
