How do I convince my roommate to let me buy a pair of rats? She's had rodent pets before, but just doesn't feel like having an animal in the room. Even though she wouldn't have to take care of them at all, knows they don't smell that much and thinks they sound really sweet. I'm at the end of my rope, and I could REALLY benefit from interacting with a loving pet right now. Any ideas?

It's pretty inconsiderate to get them if she doesn't want them. They can be noisy at night, too... if you're sharing a small space, they could get pretty annoying for her.

Hmm. I'm a guy in the same situation; was going to get two rats and then my roommate (dorm) decided he didn't want something that would need to leave the cage. Any /an/ons have any ideas for highly interactive animals around or less than the size of rats that are less inconvenient to someone who doesn't want 'em around?

Eats very little, are very quiet and can be used for self defense in case of an emergency.

You can also buy them in groups and watch'em interact with each other.
May also be used to make stone soup.

Those things were REAL!?!?! Fuck, I wish I was the genius to come up with the idea to sell rocks to fucking idiots.

They sure were. Back in the seventies they made their creator Gary Dahl a millionaire.

I wasn't allowed to have a pet when I was little, so my mom got me one of these. I was about 5, and I loved that fucking thing to death, carried it with me everywhere. I lost it one day and cried for hours. ;_;

Get flipping nintendogs or a tamagotchi or any number of virtual pet aquariums and whatnot.

Look, reality is, rats are pretty disgusting. They will and can eat anything and everything, smell of rat piss, and if you get a male, their OMFGSCARYHUEG balls are guaranteed to freak everyone out.

On top of that, it's going to die of a tumour within 3-4 years.

If you MUST get a rodent of some sort though, look into a flying squirrel. There was an anon who owned a flying squirrel, apparently it attaches to one owner, you baicallyget to carry it around in your pocket, and are very quiet, doesn't smell, nocturnal so sleeps during the day while you are out.

well.. if you absolutely can't have a pet and can't convince your roommate otherwise.. Nintendogs is really pretty good. You get attached to the little buggers; they all have little personality quirks and such. My nintendog husky Yodel beats up all the neighborhood dogs, steals their toys, and chases his tail obsessively. He's a pill.

In other words, you've never owned a rat and know nothing about them?

Did you even consider the flying squirrel thing anon suggested?
I'd like to see a dumb rat do that!
