Winter White Dwarf Hamster (Milky Tea morph)
The 'milky tea' hamster is a coat-color morph of the Winter White dwarf hamster (Phodopus sungorus), named for its even, milk-tea-colored back. Some show the 'winter white' effect, turning silvery white in cold weather and reverting when warm. It is one of the prettiest of the dwarf hamsters and good for beginners.

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.

Lop Rabbit
The Lop Rabbit — one of today's most popular pet rabbits — is named for its ears that hang down. Gentle, small, and people-friendly, it is short-lived (usually 5–7 years) and heat-sensitive, needs daily grooming of its dense coat and drooping ears, and must never be picked up by the ears.
