Hi,I had three mice and they where so sweet and smart and I was wondering which small rodent you like.

Question:
what rodent do you like best?

Choices:
mice
rats
rabbit
hamster

 

i love rats they make great pets!

I don't know why everyone likes rats i don't think they are that cute? I had to say a bunny they are cute and intellegent.(did i spell that right?)

Bunney,
Rats are extremely adorable. Why don't you google a "Blue dumbo rat?" There are MANY varieties of rats. I used to show mine in New Jersey. I only have 13 now, but I used to have 52. As soon as my wife and I get a house again, we're going to enlarge the rattery...

They are also one of the most intelligent rodents.

well i just don't like rats there tails freek me out there bald. in my OPINOIN rabbits are much more cute.Type in cANADIAN hOLLAND Lop RABBIT BREEDERS | PETS / SHOW | M&M's RABBITRY... and go to photo gallery then click juniors

Bunney,
The tails aren't bald. (It bothers me when people say that. Most people who say it have never been close to a rat.) The tail is covered in short, prickly hairs.

And, if the tails do bother you, there are Manx rats. Those are rats that do not have tails.

I am not against owning rabbits. They're a bit too on the smelly side for me. Something in their urine bothers me. And, no offense, but they're not a smart enough mammal. Yes, they can be quite affectionate, but I'd rather have something that I can teach and it can learn.

I used to have a Netherland Dwarf/Rex cross. I showed him in 4H. He lived to be around 10 years old. He wasn't anything fancy. He was just plain ol' black. He was my friend for many years. However, I do not think that I'll own a rabbit ever again. For the most part, I like animals that can live in a colony together. Did you know female rats will help raise eachothers' young? That's always helpful. I have a beautiful Russian Blue Dumbo Self that goes by Ella for short, and she's a wonderful nurse. She'll even go as far as lactating.

If i breed my rabbits at the same time and one of them doesn't take care of thier young the other one will and i am friends with the owner of a big rabbitry in St. Clair MI and she will take wild baby bunnys and put them with the domestic ones and they will take care of them.

i don't want to argue but i just perfer rabbits and i really don't like rats that much
