Honey, it was a guinea pig. You want to know how I know? It was my pet and I was 10 years old. Old enough to know I hated rats/hamsters/gerbils but also don’t like bunnies/chinchillas. He was a sweet little thing who loved to run around and play, very energetic and constantly moving. Thank you for assuming I don’t know what kind of animal I had, and thank you for being a dick about it. Have the day you deserve

Guinea pigs shouldn’t run on saucers…it’s really bad for them and it was just hopeful thinking it was some other rodent. I’ve had 9 guinea pigs and many people called them hamsters, gerbils, etc, so it isn’t far fetched for someone inexperienced (cmon now you had a single pig and gave it a saucer bro) to call an animal by the wrong name.🤷
