They're great companions. Social. Affectionate. Friendly note, they do best with a friend.

The problem is they don't live very long (2-3 years) so while they're very cute they also don't make it all that long so if you get attached, you are going to be sad. And you will get attached, because they are cute and friendly.

I had two or three as a kid. I don't know why I put myself through that. So cute and loyal, though
