I really love them, but i was not "allowed" by my petsitter (mother). "i would never pet sit them!". She was in love with my american staffordshire terrier but she's afraid of cute rodents. You can even feel the fear with my rabbit (who has no front teeth) so i guess the struggle is real. Thank you for the pictures of these beautiful rodents, they are cute and really smart. 20200927_1...47f48f.jpg

I have mice & rats and i'm gonna have to post some pictures when i get home! Im at school on my school laptop rn..

I agree with toasty, thanks for giving us other than cats or dogs lovers a chance! Not everyone has a cat or a dog and we'd like to share our little buddies too.

I had a lovely little brown and white rat for just under 24 hours. My mother refused to let either of us into the house until he’d been rehomed. Why didn’t I stand up to her? Life’s so tough when you’re in your 20s and can’t afford a place of your own! Had a little Russian hamster called Gustav. He lived in the bedroom and was a little charmer. I got a call at work late one morning from my mum telling me the cats, all 7 of them had knocked over his home and the lid had fallen off. Shot off home expecting to find a chewed up hamster but there he was sitting by his upturned home nibbling away nonchalantly. The cats had made themselves scarce, wisely.
