im just wondering, alot of people i know seem to have rodents, mice and rats especially, but to be honest, i think they're the cutest things out there ^^. i mean, i remember being under a bridge on a footpath by my house one time and there was a rat running around in there, i wasn't gonna touch it but i just thought it was cute :). anyone else like rats/mice and so on?

Oh, yes, I like (most) rodents. <3
Rats make very good pets. Hamsters are cool too.
I saw some capybaras at a zoo place before, and it was awesome.
My friend's family has a pet flying squirrel. I love that little guy. :)

I guess the squirrel is grounded, huh? That seems a shame. 8-(

I love mice too, I remember I got really upset at my dad one time for running around stomping on a family of them that were living in my shed.

My favourite rodent in the Lesser Egyptian Jerboa, which everyone confuses with Kangaroo Rats. These different species evolved a similar solution for similar conditions on different parts of the world.

Let them crawl up your pantleg for a laugh! :D

i love rats!! ! my previous rats were called "rizzo" and "little stephen pearcy II" (after the muppets rat and the lead singer of the band RATT). i desperately want to adopt a rat again. they're so much more loving and intelligent than people give them credit. :wink:

Flying squirrels don't actually fly. They just jump from high places and then GLIDE.

It is supposed to be a play on words. 'Grounded' is a punishment in the US where you are sent you room or, not allowed outside the house.
