A lot of people are afraid of the tail, others because of the (wrong) insinuation that rats caused the plague

I have two, one tortoise since I was 1 years old and a guinea pig who is about 3 years old now. That guinea pig was rather unexpected. My mum had lost a guinea pig a few years go, and we had two old female lefts. We know that if a guinea pig is left by it self, it will die of a broken heart. So we wanted want to our local RSPCA and got two more females from them incase one of the older ones dies. Unknown to us at the time, they both had some fun with a naughty male and we got 7 additional ones for the price of two. In the end we gave away the two males to a friend of the family and keep all the females.

I love fancy rats! They are cute. Back when I used volunteer down at Nature Centre, I used to work in the Rodent House quite a lot and there were my favourite rodents to work with.

I have a seven year old labradoodle, he's great since I can tell him everything that is stressing me out and he'll always listen and never tells anyone!!

I used to own two pets -a goldfish and a rabbit, both now dead. The rabbit died a couple of years after I got it when one of the estate hunting dogs (I lived on the end of a country estate at the time) got at it.
The goldfish was originally one of a pair that I got for my 3rd birthday. The first one died just before I got the rabbit and its twin goldfish amazingly lived to the ripe old age of 15 before dying of old age shortly before I went to uni in 2008.
