Bunny Basics

Bunnies and rabbits come in all sorts of breeds, shapes, and colors. ( not including any bright or neon colors:) I really like these animals and lucky for me there are more than 55 breeds! Here are some:

:)

See, lots, and I have not even shown them all!

There are so many kinds and wonderful colors of bunnies and rabbits

and in my opinion everybody should have a specific ( slightly bouncy ) friend.

Ferrets

Ferrets are very cute and reasonably silly and fun to watch. They really like playing and can fit into small places. You should never put a ferret outside and should find out about ferret proofing your house. Ferrets would not survive long in the wild, because there are wild animals, and storms and floods are always a possibility. They need at least 2 whole hours a day of attention, just 2 hours. They would probably like a playmate though, as long as it's 2 females. Any other combination of the genders will not work. It is a good idea to get 2 cages  if you are getting 2 ferrets because each ferret is born with its own unique personality, so 1 may or may not get along with the other 1. So put 1 cage 2 to 3 inches away from the other cage for at least for the first week so that they can get used to each other. Unless they have been cage mates for they're whole entire lives since they where born.  

Turtles

I had the opportunity to turtle-sit and I loved it! We mostly fed her ( or him ) 5 to 8 worms a day and turtle food we bought at the store, she ( or he ) stayed outside most the time in a 5 ft. by 5 ft. cage. She ( or he ) seemed to like it there.

Well again I'm pretty sure that I've explained most everything.

( most turtles will not be this friendly, thank you  :) 

Cats

I love cats, but my parents are allergic to them. But they are adorable and neat, clean, & majestic little creatures : - )

Pot bellied pigs

I'm not gonna lie, but the little cuties down below are adorable!

                     
                IS A POT B. PIG RIGHT FOR YOU ?                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                        Most owners like their pigs and treat them with love and respect, and even though its a huge responsibility they are up to the task. But some find their pigs too much to handle and the poor, yet fortunate, little guys will end up in pig sanctuaries. Unfortunately some people do what they think is best even though the experts say no to turning them loose. It is best to only have 1 pig.

Well I think I've explained some things that will help you, but there are books and

training videos if you are that type o' person  ;-)

Goldfish

I personally like goldfish. They are adorable!

For info go to YouTube and search goldfish care and info.

PROS :-)

1. They provide hours of tail-end-nothing-to-get-away-from-it fun!  ( unfortunately there is nothing to get away from it  ;-)

CONS :-(

1. Ya have to clean it's tank every other day.

Hamsters

Hamsters are wonderful pets. Here are all 5 types...

( Chinese)

PROS :-)


1. They are adorable and make you feel all warm and fuzzy inside.


2. They look super cute in their exercise balls.



CONS :-(


1. Ya have 2 clean their cages twice a week.


2. They are nocturnal, ( well, mostly nocturnal. ) need attention and space, they also hate loud noises.

Leopard geckos

I've decided to do a little bit more than just PROS & CONS. I've decided to talk more about this one of a kind pet. They are very dry despite what everyone says. It is very cute, don't ya think ;-)

Please forgive me I really don't know much else except PROS & CONS.


PROS :-)

1. They take short time limits to tame and then they are your BFF's 4 life!

2. At times, they are adorable.

CONS :-(

1. They eat mealworms.


You can purchase a leopard gecko here.

( this is incredibly rare behavior so don't be disappointed if your gecko does not do this during it's

mildly long life.  )

Parakeets

I also like the idea of owning a parakeet but again I can't have one. And again you can as long as you don't have any territorial or naturally predatory animals in the house already, including cats and  dogs.

(  this one is female ) 

PROS :-)


1. They are easily taught to speak and sing.

2. Adorable
                                                           


CONS :-(


1. They can't have small or round or uncornered cages.

Chinchillas

I really like the idea of owning a chinchilla, unfortunately I can not have one. But... you can!

PROS  :)

1. They are adorable!

2. They bounce around...unless you don't like that, then it's a con.  :-(

3. They take cute little dust baths, they love to have playmates, and if you make them happy they will do cute little hops called popcorning.

CONS :(

1. They are poop machines.

2. They need constant attention and care.

3. The males get display hair around the neck, but without haircuts regularly it will die. But the females are fine.

4. It must have space!

Come back for my next post, where I will discuss parakeets!
