The truth behind the slow loris pet trade and 'cute' tickling slow loris videos...

personally, I've always thought tickling to be a form of abuse and aggression, no matter who is getting tickled.

  I hated being tickled when I was a kid, and I still hate it. 

Now I see that people think that tickling a slow loris is "cute" when, in fact it's form of torture.

A slow loris is not a pet.  Neither is a "micro" pig or a monkey.
