Ooooo! can't help myself here.... get a RAT!!! or two even!
have had rats my whole life and they are awesome and even trainable!
very intelligent animals.
right now I have two males in a large 4 level cage.
They are very easy to take care of.
I would recommend getting females though, I notice that the males droppings smell much more.
They are both very sweet! I is a b&w hooded rat and the other a Brown & white hooded dumbo rex.
When I clean the cage they stay at the top patiently until I am done.
Whenever I walk by they stick their little paws out of the cage try and grab me and Heelo wont stop licking me whenever I take him out to play.
Hope this helps turn you into a rat lover!

its funny you should say that.....
i had thought about this......
but i dont know if my cage is big enough.....

How big is it?

Maybe you could put a bug in there. I think Madagascar Hissing Cocroachis are cool. It's unlikely that they'll cause problems too (if they excape) because they are native to Madagascar (there are very few places with the same climate). I think I will get one when I can. they might need a tank though, but I'm not sure.

I'm sorry about your loss!

Mice!! I used to have mice when i was younger and they were so clever! always scuttling about sniffing things and coming back to you when theyd had enough or wanted something! Id recommend mice, but they are prone to tumors, i lost a couple of mine that way.

I'd reccomend mice! I've had the "regular" brown hamsters, dwarf hamsters and mice. I had 4 mice, sugar, Al, Coco and Chip. They were cute and fun!
