  1. i agree because hamsters are just as smart as rats they might even be smarter than rats. But even if there not they still look much cool then rats.


  2. I TOTALLY AGREEE!!!!!

    I mean,its not like rats are any better!!!

    Hamsters are cute! There fuzzy!! They are very clean! You can play with them! They enjoy there owners company!! There are hours of fun!! And HOW are they not smart!? All hamsters behavoir is intellegent! They hide their food! And cover themselves when they sleep for protection! And run on there wheel with their cheeks stuffed with food so you cant take it away from them!!

    Those ppl have NO RIGHT to talk about hamsters like that!

  3. I absolutely agree with you!!! I believe that hamsters are one of the best pets out there!

  4. hamsters are dumb

  5. i agree somewhat. it's true they shouldn't say hamsters are dumb. but at the same time it is a fact that rats are smarter. that doesn't mean hamsters are stupid mind you. they just are not as bright. and i don't find any animal to be stinky. i mean it is true that hammie pee smells like ammonia but the hammie itself isn't smelly and unless it just peed, it's cage shouldn't be either unless it is due for a changing. i myself prefer rats. but hamsters are still cute little fluffballs.

  6. Hamsters aren't DUMB, but when compared to rats they ARE less intelligent. That's just the way it is. Some people want pets that can learn their names, tricks, who want to cuddle. Rats are that way. They are also more personable than hamsters and like to be held and played with. I don't dislike hamsters, but I do believe rats make better pets for many people. They do, however, need lots more time and some think they aren't as cute as hamsters. So if you don't have as much time to spend a hamster is a better pet.

    But TONS of people say mean things about rats, too. Any time someone asks a question about their rat they get awful answers like "get a cat" "ewwww" "buy some rat traps" etc. etc. People also think rats are full of diseases, dirty, smelly, and bite. I think you just like hamsters more, so you don't notice as much when people insult rats. Both are nice pets, and they can be very sweet and cute. Some people just like one species more than the other, that's all.

    & HamsterLuver, rats whose cages are cleaned regularly and spot cleaned daily don't smell. My rats live in my room and I hardly notice..  As for cleanliness, both species are the same. They both groom themselves very often and are BOTH very clean.

  7. Neither animal is dumb; rats are just a bit more cleaver than hamsters, that's all.

    Hamsters are cute, but both are rodents, and both can be a bother (odor, meanness, etc) if they're ill-treated.

    I however REFUSE to own a rat.  When I was a kid, my uncle's rat got out of his cage, got all the way into my bedroom, broke into my hamster's cage and killed it.  What was THAT all about?  Since then I won't even hold a rat...but I still own hamsters (and a rabbit).


  8. My first answer is that most people want a pet they can play with and snuggle and stuff, but it's small, so they assume hamsters will do that. From what I've experienced personally they are great pets to have for kids who are content with them being their own kinda thing. Hamsters don't have the long tails like rats do so most people pick them because of that.

    Another thing is that all animals smell, regardless. People just spew out information without knowing its source or even if it is true.

    Personally I think Hamsters are adorable, like, incredibly but aren't as smart as rats. Rats, *IMO* are better for me cause I can interact with them

  9. i don't know much about hamsters but i know my sisters kids had some and the mom hamster ate her babies! ewwww

  10. I think hamsters could have worded this question better... hope this helps

  11. Thats not mean thats the truth!

  12. disagree sweety...of all the things in the world to wonder about, you are concerned about people calling hamsters dumb...
