My sons are 7 and soon to be 5, and both are very keen to get a pet of their own. We already have 2 family dogs and 6 chickens. When I was 5 I was given 2 guinea pigs by my mum and I did care for them myself with only very little help from my mum, one of them was my older sisters but she soon got bored of caring for them. I know that could happen with my boys but whatever we get I will look after it till the day it dies. I would love guinea pigs again but sadly my eldest is allergic :( we were going to get rats but then I fell pregnant and rats aren't the best pets to have with a new baby in the house.
Any ideas on what would be a good idea? Our house is roomy enough for inside pets and we have a half acre garden :)
