Chinchilla, Sugar Glider or Hedgehog
I am trying to decide what kind of pet to get... I think i've pretty much narrowed it down to one of these three. I want something that would like to 'cuddle' and likes humans.
What should I pick? Why? Which is the coolest? Name it!
Thanks, 42

Re: Chinchilla, Sugar Glider or Hedgehog
My sister has a sugar glider. You don't want one because they only come out at night and it damages their eyes if you make them come out. But thwne they do come out they are hyper little furball with huge eyes.
get an albino hedgehog

Re: Chinchilla, Sugar Glider or Hedgehog
I went to a flea market once and some old man was selling sugar gliders. He had them in a coffee can.

Re: Chinchilla, Sugar Glider or Hedgehog
I'd get a dog or cat. Those rodent kind of animals smell awful and need to be cleaned up after constantly. You might cuddle them a half hour a day but you, your room, and everything in it will smell like stale piss forever. A bigger animal you can still cuddle with, you can rough around more, and they don't shit in a pile of woodchips. If you have a fenced in yard, I'd go dog cause walking them is a pain. If not, they have those automatic litter boxes that rake the shit into a smellless compartment.
EDIT- For cats, obviously.

Re: Chinchilla, Sugar Glider or Hedgehog
Get a chinchilla, it's really soft and if it ever pisses you off too much you can make a furcoat for a GI Joe with it...

Re: Chinchilla, Sugar Glider or Hedgehog
Sugar gliders are cool. You need to keep them in pairs though, they're very socially needy.
Get babies so you can bond with them, they'll hang out with you and become very attached.
Get the male fixed, they like to reporduce...and the males can get kind of mean when they do.

Re: Chinchilla, Sugar Glider or Hedgehog
Get a hedgehog, paint it blue, and name it Sonic. They're fairly cuddly, and their spikes are only a problem if you make it mad. You can give it to people who don't know how to hold it, and it will poke them.

Re: Chinchilla, Sugar Glider or Hedgehog
Get a pet rat. They're sociable and relatively intelligent. Sugar Gliders tend to shit all over you since they're exotic animals and not domesticated, so they'd probably be a pain in the ass to care for. Hedgehogs are okay, but not much for cuddling. Chilchillas are too skittish and you can't hold them that much. I'd either go with a rat or a hedgehog.
