There are many of those (and mice) in pet stores. They're actually quite cute :D

Rats are very good pets. I had one when I was 15, a female named Mousaki. She lived for about 3 years, but she was very sweet and never bit anyone. Even the cat got along with her, which I found odd yet cute at the time.

I'd like to have a full-blooded chocolate point Siamese cat one fine day - of the extremely thin ones with blue or green eyes. I've wanted one for a long time but never could bring mself to part with the hundreds of dollars it would cost me to get one. Last I checked, a Siamese with papers went for about $1,200.00. Yes, they're mean and crotchety as far as animals go, but they are beautiful.

What is the little mouse-like creature below the beagle photo? It's adorable!
A sugar glider - is that some kind of squirrel? Curious.

I heard they make good pets. I'm particularly fond of rodents - I had at one point more than 50 hamsters, more than 10 cavies, 4 gerbils and two rabbits all at the same time, living in an apartment, believe it or not! I also would take tarantulas and scorpions home, as I like them as well. Rats, however, my mother doesn't like and is opposed to me having one. She confuses them all with sewer rats.

Wow - that's quite a collection! I had a guinea pig once, too, a black one that my brothers called 'Roach.' I always thought it was funny how it would squeak whenever somebody opened the refrigerator - it knew we had lettuce and carrots in there. I'd have a tarantula, too (they are very pretty) but my husband is scared to death of spiders and he'd be afraid it would get out. I have a few snakes (love reptiles) and every once in a while, one might get out and he yells at me to go catch it. Your mother sounds like mine - she was raised in a large city where they had wharf rats (large as a small dog, some of them) and to this day they terrify her.

I want a very large snake (non-venomous) and a pit-bull had one as a kid well a mix but mostly bull and it was just the nicest and smartest dog ever! It could climb the low branches on tree up pretty high and even climbed chain link fences smartest dog I've ever known nicest too didn't even fight other dogs.

I want a fruit bat pretty badly. It is a shame they are illegal for absolutely no reason.
