White Chinchilla
The white chinchilla is a coat-color morph of the chinchilla (Chinchilla lanigera), native to the Andes of South America. It likes dry, cool, dim places, is nocturnal, gentle and very timid, and commands a higher price for its pure white coat.
Syrian Hamster
The Syrian hamster (Mesocricetus auratus), also called the golden hamster or 'pearl bear', is a hamster from Asia and the first species kept as a pet. Docile and easy to breed, it lives 2 to 3 years with good care and comes in over 40 color varieties.
Eurasian Blackbird
The Eurasian blackbird (Turdus merula) is Sweden's national bird. Males are entirely black except for a bright yellow eye-ring and bill, while females and juveniles wear brown plumage with a darker streaked throat.
Guinea Pig
The Guinea Pig (Cavia porcellus), also called the cavy, is a gentle South American rodent kept worldwide as a pet. It needs a roomy cage, a bottle, and — unlike many rodents — a diet with added vitamin C: grass hay, guinea-pig pellets, and fresh vegetables. Its teeth grow for life, so fibrous food is essential.
Chinese White Rabbit
The Chinese White Rabbit is China's oldest domestic rabbit — small, compact, and remarkably hardy, with red eyes only in the white form. A meat-type landrace that also makes a tough pet, it needs a wire-free cage, a ball-valve bottle, and a simple diet of pellets, alfalfa, timothy, and boiled water. Watch for coccidiosis.
Angora Rabbit
The Angora Rabbit is the fluffy 'grass-mud rabbit' kept for its superfine wool (11 microns, finer than cashmere). Gentle but high-maintenance, it needs shearing every 3–4 months and constant hay to avoid deadly wool block (hairball impaction). Lifespan about 5–7 years.
Dutch Rabbit
The Dutch Rabbit is a small, distinctly marked pet rabbit with a white inverted-V on the face and a sharp color split between front and back. Gentle, smart, and nearly odorless, it needs timothy hay, a chew stick, steady 25–32°C, and a wire-free, dry cage. Lifespan about 5–7 years.
Green Arowana
The Green Arowana is the gentle, pale green-silver variety of the Asian arowana — less vivid and less costly than the golden or red forms, but unusually peaceful and mixable with other large fish. A big fish needing a covered 1.5 m tank at pH 6–7 and 25°C, it lives 10–12 years on a carnivorous diet of shrimp, insects, and lean meat.
Goldfish
The goldfish (Carassius auratus), native to China, is the world's oldest ornamental fish with more than 125 varieties. This guide covers its taxonomy, body and head shapes, care, tank environment, and feeding.
Guppy
The guppy (Poecilia reticulata) is a peacock-tailed livebearer from South American river basins—easy to keep, with hundreds of strains. Keep at 22–26 °C, pH 7.0–8.5, and feed a varied diet of flakes, brine shrimp and daphnia.
