My ferrets don't really "love" the water, but when I give them a bath I do it in the tub and they swim around. They look so cute when they swim!
As for other small animals and rodents, I'm not sure. I guess, as is with all animals, some enjoy the water and some don't. It's just a matter of what that particular animal likes and dislikes.

some rodents like to swim my rats didnt because i started putting them in some water to their ankle but they didnt like it because they werent used to it. if you start them in water at a young age they might or might not get used to it

NO! the first person was crazy! especially hamsters SHOULD NEVER GET WET! they are sooo susseptible [idk how 2 spell that] to pneumonia!!! don't give them baths! although many other rodents you can get wet like for a bath but most of them are not built for swimming.
