All I can remember is that there was a bunch of kids and they each had a miniature alien animal that they were taking care of. It was similar to the dinosaur movie but they weren't dinosaurs. There was bad guys after them throughout the movie. I have been trying to remember for years and I just can't find it.

That's so weird... I swear I had a dream about this movie the other night and I haven't thought about it in years. I can't think of the name of it either. I can picture them feeding one of them, but that's about it!

This was from the makers of
An earlier film Prehysteria,.

Pet Shop

I was definitely thinking of Prehysteria. Thanks!

It's similar but the movie I'm thinking of isn't about dinosaurs, they were these other creatures
