A pet is the greatest companion you can have. They're always around to play with, they brighten your mood, and they guarantee that you're never alone. Whether living in a tank, cage, or right on the couch snuggled up next to you, the animals ahead are sure to pull at your heartstrings. Proceed with caution; you'll be tempted to bring one (or all) of these little guys home!
Hamsters
These furry little creatures are so cute, you won't be able to put them down! Plus, they're beyond easy to care for.
Fish
Because who wouldn't want to be reminded of Dory from Finding Nemo every day?!
Chinchillas
These animals are like little balls of fluff – need we say more?
Guinea Pigs
Believe it or not, guinea pigs are not part of the pig family, but they sure are adorable!
