We have an assortment of pet rodents. There was one I rescued from an abusive home who was my favorite. We just lost him due to old age. I thought it would be hardest on my kids but I'm the one who has been pretty devastated. The one who died was really affectionate, almost like a dog. One of my friends said it was hardest on me because I spent much more time with him since I work at home. I'm thinking of replacing him so I have some company when I'm home working and everyone else is off at work or school.
I know dogs are very good companions but I'd like something that is less work. I can't get a cat due to allergies.
Any recommendations?
