I have a cat, also called Charlie, who was locked indoors at an early age by her previous owners. Despite years of loving care , she still jumps at the sign of a dead leaf, and is regularly terrorized by the big fat pidgeon that lords over my garden

Anyone else got a pet that will more than likely wet itself at the sight of its own shadow?

My cat is like that. We're amazed he manages to catch and kill birds because the slightest sound will send him running. I once clapped my hands lightly and he jumped over me and ran out of the room. Yeah, I'm short, but jumping over a 5' tall obstacle(me) from a sitting position is quite...unusual, or so my experience says.

Okay, I live in a townhouse with a sister who is allegic to cats and dogs. Because of that I've had to get my pet fix in other ways

I currently have two guinea pigs and a rabbit. I'm working on the s.o. to get another rabbit as Edwin needs a friend, but so far no go.

I don't recommend guinea pigs as pets. Sure they're easy, but they smell funny and are not very cuddly. I've had friends pick them up and hold them for a bit only to have a wet stain spread down their shirts. (now I warn all who mess with them.) I also don't understand how they could have possibly survive in the wild. They constantly squeak and when frightened they freeze and squeak louder. ( I named the squeakiest one 'Aerie' and it fits rather well)

Then there's Edwin, my rabbit. He's a Holland Lop smaller than the guinea pigs who manages to send them running. I think it's the joyful bounds he takes, or the fact that he jumps into their cage and stares at them as if daring them to make a move on him. He's just sweet and curious and neater than most cats I've known. *goes into a happy pet trance as she's typing*

I've never had Guinea Pigs or Rabbits, but I did have a Teddy Bear Hamster(I think that's what it was called) named Theodore "Teddy" Roosevelt (insert my last name here). He was cute, but he liked to eat his cage(It was one of those plastic ones with the tubes and such). One night, he ate the part of the cage where one of the tubs connected to it and escaped from his cage. He had done this before, but this time we never found him.
