Ferret
Ferrets are very curious animals, and therefore they need a house protected from ferrets. Ferrets are very similar to cats. They’re curious, independent, and mischievous. They spend most of the time in their enclosure, but they can also be taken out for regular playtime. These pets are extremely playful and will play for hours with their toys and human companions. They are sociable and enjoy spending time with their family. Their fur is generally black, brown, white, or mixed.
Ferrets don’t speak and they can be little trained like a cat. Kids loved ferrets, and if they are trained properly, they can be the faithful companion that you want. They have an average length of 51 cm, including a 13 cm tail, and have a natural lifetime of 6 years to 10 years.
However, ferrets aren’t a good option for small kids. Especially when they’re younger, they will bite. Their tiny teeth easily break the skin. They are also easily injured by rough kids. Just like cats, ferrets will not love hugging too much until they’re at least one year old.

Hamster
Both Hamsters and Guinea pigs are often grouped into the same category, but the fact is that they’re very different pets. Hamsters are small and larger. Hamsters can also live alone and they’re content in a smaller cage.
Hamsters are lively, cute, and need little care. They are an excellent first pet for adult kids who have already proven that they’re responsible enough to care for their pets regularly.
