They are so darn cute!- You can’t teach them to obey you, they will do things if they choose to. I respect that independance
- They don’t love you just because you feed them, you have to woo them before they will show you affection
- It feels nice to pat them. Being unselfish and making a lovely little animal happy makes us happy too
- Once they are house trained you never have to see their faeces again!
- They get on with their lives when you are short on free time to give to them. They will patiently and quietly wait
Well, those first 6 are so good I don’t really need the rest of the list!
