well i have had mice and a hamster and i love mice but i personally like hamsters because they are kinda bigger and i fell better about letting them run around on the couch and stuff like that.

I like mice the best but hamsters are probably better for most people and everyone seems to love rats, but I have never had a rat and I just love me mice to death :D

i've never had a rat either but my science teacher had one and i helped take care of it so it was half mine.

if only it were still alive. some guys decided to feed it tooth picks. i was soo mad and sad. why would someone feed a living thing tooth picks. STUPID.

No...I don't think hamsters are better for most people! They are more likely to bite then any other small animal...of course there is always the exception!

Depends on where you get them from.
Most breeder hamsters I know is the sweetest animals.
But many petstore animals, where nobody knows what's in them, are very agressive.
I think you could say that for at lot of rodents. Mostly petstores just sell the syrien, and it has a tendensy to be agressive compared to other hamsters imo.

With lots of love and attention they make perfect pets! I definitely think people need to do research before getting a rodent, because they aren't perfect for everyone. <3
