Guinea pigs - Guinea pigs live up to 6-8 years. During this period, you should take responsibility for keeping the animals. - In order for the guinea pig to feel well, it needs a fairly spacious home. - The cage should always be clean and the food should be fresh. - The guinea pig is a very sociable animal that needs daily communication and various activities. - During a walk around the apartment, the guinea pig can chew up furniture or wallpaper, leave behind puddles or balls of droppings. In these cases, you should be tolerant. - If you give a guinea pig to your child, you will have to monitor their communication. - Also think about who will take care of the guinea pig during your vacation. - If the guinea pig gets sick, you will have to go to the vet. - Do you have any pets that will most likely not be able to get along with the guinea pig? - Before getting a guinea pig, find out if you or any of your household members suffer from animal hair allergies Ferrets - Ferrets get along very well with large breeds of dogs and cats, but not with hunting breeds. As for birds and rodents, they are nature's prey, and a ferret is unlikely to take them otherwise - You cannot have a ferret if you cannot give him at least an hour and a half or two hours a day. A ferret is a communicative animal, he needs his owner's attention. - You cannot have a ferret if you cannot provide for its upkeep. Here's an approximate list of expenses: feeding: 300-700 roubles/month Cell: 2000-12000 roubles Carrier: 500-3000 roubles Drinker, bird feeder and litter box: 30-400 roubles for each item Castration: for males 1000-2000 roubles, for females 2000-4000 roubles Vaccination: 600-800 roubles in first year, then every year 300-500 roubles Consultation at veterinarian: 70-400 roubles Consultation at veterinarian: 70-400 roubles - good advice. If a ferret gets ill, the cost of treatment can be very substantial.

guinea pig of course! She is a Pets and the ferret is a FELONY! Although ferrets are also very cute and cuddly they will have a harder time in captivity.

I would have a ferret I think he's much smarter than a pig will show his character will eventually become a member of the family and not just sit in a cage and always chew something

There is a smell from everyone! If you're picky, you'd better think again and again Kharka is probably harder.

You stink! You write without knowing what. I have a pig and it doesn't stink one bit if you take care of it and clean the litter box.
