some company?Eric is leaving next week for the whole week. I'm a big girl, I'll be fine... but whats the harm in having someone to talk to or something to play with? I'm thinking about getting either a hamster or another betta. I know a fish is cheaper, and probably smarter... and less smelly... but yea. I kinda want a fuzzy friend. Especially after playing with those puppies all afternoon!!! :) Also, this would be my 6th betta, which is fine... I just... Idk. Obviously I'd rather have the hamster, but I know they smell, and I don't want that thing stinkin up my apartment. Maybe if there were ways to keep it from smelling so bad? And/or cheaper ways to keep it as far as food and upkeep go? I mean, fish are so easy. Feed them once a day at most, and some bettas can go a week without eating. And the food is cheap, Buy it like, once a year or maybe 6 months. The only trouble is the cleaning of the tank. Not bad if you have a filter, but those can get a little expensive and can be tricky every once in a while. I would really rather get a hamster.... Anyone ever kept a hamster before? Got any tips? Advice? Give me feedback. |
