What is everyones favorite small animal? Mine are rock cavies.
I had to go with ferrets. I want one so bad!!! I love rats too though.
What a difficult choice, I just like them all! :D If I had to get one of these I would get a rabbit (there's so many lovely rabbits on this site that made me really want one :D :D :D ). I love hedgehogs too.
RABBITS!
:)
Rabbits all the way baby, yea! But you didn't have a choice for a bird lover....
rabbits, Rabbits, RABBITS!!!!!!
It was only for the small and furry. I am working on one for the small and feathered. I will be birds kept as pets and will include some exotic birds as well. It should be up today. Hope you enjoy it:)
RABBITS !!!!!!!!! RABBITS !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
My favorite larger pet is Sydney , my cat !!!
But as to the smaller ones : definittely Billie , our cute rabbit !!
B I L L I E !!
Since hamsters weren't on the list, I chose guinea pigs. I've never had one, but I do think I would enjoy having one or two. Just add it to my list! LOL!! :D
What's a Rock Cavie? A certain breed of guinea pig?
No no no. He he, they are not a guinea pig. Sounds like it though. You are very close though.;)
Rock cavies are a rodent closely related to the guinea pig. They come from the rocky mountain areas of Chile. They take dust baths similar to the chinchilla. I am currently studying them and I am planning on writing a book about them that should be out within a few years. They are very rare in the pet trade. Have only been around for a few months.
Here is a pic of a rock cavie. They look sort of like a miniature beaver or something.
The reason why I say Beaver is because when you look at them straight on they sometimes blow their cheeks up and it makes them look that way. I am going to scan a pic of mine and then I will show you so you can see what I mean.
Ok here is the pick. It's not that good though. But you can see the ckeek thingy.:)
Here is another of him and Silly my guinea pig running aroung while I clean their cage. Bad thing about cavies, they poop too much!:eek: I have to clean the cage everyday. Oh well, he's still a joy to have around though.
Here is my guinea pig Ms. Silly, as she is not married yet.
Don't worry everyone. My animals do not stay in that small of cages. They have their own room and get free roam of it and then go into their cage at night. My guinea pig is potty trained so she gets free roam of the den. They are so spoiled, he he. I think my bf is jealous.:p
