Everything You Need to Know About Caring for Small Mammals! Get all the support and guidance needed to be a successful caregiver of small mammals!

Have you been considering bringing a new pet into your family? It's important to realize that your new family member doesn't have to be a large animal like a dog. You have the option of choosing a smaller mammal, such as a gerbil, hamster, rabbit, or rat.

One common reason people opt for smaller mammals as pets is limited space. For instance, living in a small apartment in the inner city may not provide enough room for a dog to be comfortable and have space to play.

Additionally, walking a dog up and down stairs to take them outside can be a real hassle, and some dogs require extensive training to walk in urban areas without issues. Such training can be costly, making the entire experience of keeping a dog in a small apartment filled with challenges. In these situations, a smaller pet could be a better choice.

If your children have been asking for a pet, starting with a smaller animal might be a smart move. Fish can often fail to hold children's interest, leading them to forget about their aquatic companions. On the other hand, a dog may present too much responsibility, especially if it's a child’s first pet.

For a child's first pet, a hamster or gerbil is the perfect option.
