Not just dogs. I like small furries. Rabbits and guinea pigs.

Well, I agree with you, but the Monks are very much dog people...;-)

When my children were young, we raised guinea pigs...cute critters and reproduce quickly..24 hours after a female gives birth, shes ready to breed again...males make good daddys and they can stay with the babies, just not the first 48 hours. Females are able to breed only for the 24-48 hours after giving birth. Then the male can be put back in with mama and babies...They figured out when the refrig. door opened in the basement (where they were kept) they would all start yelling WEEP WEEP WEEP. sorry that’s the best I can do with what they sound like.That’s when they got fresh lettuce...Don’t smell and make good pets but can bite if they don’t like you... The babies are born fully furred and with teeth. They start eating the same food as the adults within 24 hours..
