What is a good small house pet?

I want to get a small furry house pet, I have had a hamster loved it but they sleep most of the day so it got slightly boring after a while. I have a dog but he's not allowed upstairs so it wouldn't cause any problems. I have considered rabbits and guinea pigs but I was wondering if there were any other options. The animal should also be easy to care for and cuddly.What is a good small house pet?

Rabbits and Guineas both need quite a lot of space and room to run around - and could be bothered by the dog. Rabbits in particular can't be kept caged, they need room to roam.



What about Degus? Rat-sized Gerbils is what they look like. They like being kept in groups and need a nice large wire cage with solid floors - they are good chewers - and if handled quietly and sensibly will become quite tame. They live longer than rats, around 6-8 years.

Gerbils

once tame, they crave attention

they are up during the day and night (they sleep for short periods of time)

they only need cleaning like once a week or less depending on the size of the tank

unlike rats (which i also love) they do not smell bad, in fact they don't really have much of a smell at all

you get to watch them dig tunnels

they should be kept in 2's or 3's as they are very social

they live for between 2 and 5 years



gerbils should be kept in a good sized tank or gerbilarium with around 8" of bedding to enable them to dig tunnels and exhibit natural behaviour
