I voted "other" because my favorite is a hamster. We had two of them, and the saddest part is their life span is so short. Every time, I was so broken hearted, we decided not to get another. :(

Errr...............I don't really like rodents, but I think guinea pigs are cute and hamsters are okay too, so I guess they're my favorite.

Please don't let the facts of life (death) be a deterant in getting a new pet. It is a wonderful thing to love an animal KNOWING that they will pass on. They bring us joy and we (hopefully) give them happiness, too.

My favorite rodent would have to be the rat, because my friend/neighbor Katie (iceyshiver) has the cutest rat, named Meecie (sorry if I spelled it wrong Kate!) It's so tame and they walk it on a leash! Too cute!!:D

Gerbils, they're so cute and they're beautiful eyes, and less biting.

I can't do the voting function...my favorite rodents would be rats, gray and fox squirrels, beavers, woodchucks, pikas, lemmings,chipmunk, prairie dogs, 13-lined ground squirrels and capybaras (the world's largest rodent). I also think Kangaroos are very cute too!

That's because the Guinea Pig and Capybara are very closly related, closer than any other rodent.

Rabbits actually aren't rodents, they are leporids...It has to do with the number of molars or something...I can't remember...:)

Rats are, without any doubt, my favorite mammalian pet. The best websites for rat info are:

www.ratfanclub.org

and the corresponding forum at:

www.goosemoose.com/rfc

The forum's been down today, hopefully it will be back up ASAP.
