Turtle

The very essence of a turtle is to be calm and collected and maintaining them is just as easy. While cleaning their space and providing fresh water is essential, turtles usually don't need to be fed every day, depending on the species.

Chinchilla

These little fur balls are super cute. If you are someone who suffers from allergies, Chinchillas can be a good option since their coat is hypoallergenic. Their habitat includes well-maintained bedding, hiding boxes, toys, food and water. They require special Chinchilla food and weekly dust baths to keep their fur clean.

Hedgehog

Hedgehog's adorable habit of curling into a ball occurs when they are nervous. But once they get comfortable, they can be expert cuddlers. They are also a great fit for most living spaces, so you don't have to worry about making room for them.

Rabbit

Another popular furry choice, rabbits make great pets. But they also require a lot of attention and care.

Hamster

Hamsters are playful, but they are also extremely affectionate and love attention. They are also easy to care for. So, snuggling up to these furballs is truly a win-win.

Fish

Fish make great pets, but it is important to do proper research so you can provide them with the right environment and a happy life. Take care of them by maintaining good water quality with regular water changes and provide them with the right food and filters.

Sugar glider

Sugar gliders are an exotic pet that has gained popularity over the years. As exotic pets, they do have special needs but are not difficult to manage. Once socialised, they love to follow you wherever you go.

Bird

Depending on the type of bird that you select, they can be easy to take care of. While caging them is not a good idea since they are meant to fly, you can take care of a rescued one, for as long as they need your help and once healed, they can fly back to their habitat.
