I used to have a guinea pig. He died though a year and a half ago but I liked him. He was nice, but I think I really prefer dogs or cats because you can play with them more and they're not as fragile as smaller animals. Mostly all I did with my guinea pig was pet him and give him treats, which is nice if you don't have much time or don't want to devote much time on a pet. I just didn't feel that I had as much of a connection with him like I did with my dog.
A rodent makes a good starting first pet though for kids who probably aren't going to give it tons of attention all the time like a dog would need.

I have a rat and I have had numerous hamsters in the past, I like hamsters because they are so cute and fat with pudgey bodies and faces and short little noses (sompared to mice and rats) I like rats because they are the dogs of the rodent world, they love to play with people and hang out with you all day if you let them. Plus they are a bit bigger than most, so they are a little less fragile (by which I don't mean you could throw it around)

Yes, rats.
They have their own individual personality. They have never bitten me, even in stressful situations. They are quiet and loving. They are gentle animals, and easy to maintain. They live longer than other rodents and seem to be more personable.

Ive got a rabbit. And ive had 2 before. And also my sister has a geinue pig.
I think rabbits are really cute and cuddly. To be honest, Im not sure why. They're not like cat or dog, and want attention. They're really shy, but soo cute.
