Rats typically DO NOT BITE. They are very loving and friendly. I have had them for YEARS and YEARS. I've also had mice for years. They are more skittish and tend to nip fingers. Both are nice, but rats have the loyalty of a dog, and the intelligence of a cat. They're great pets!

Are hamsters better pets than rabbits?
It depends on which hamster you are planning to get. Usually the smaller hamsters are much more angry than the larger ones. I work at a vet clinic and we had one come in that was just a little devil!! They usually bite fingers and like to go to the bathroom all over your hands. Rabbits on the other hand are much more laid back, again depending on the breed you get. It also depends on how you raise them. I prefer guinea pigs, but that is just me. :) Hope you have fun with your new pet, if you get one! :)
