I can remember when I was young feeding the wild mice in my girlfriends kitchen at midnight..

We used to sneak out of bed in the dark and go down there and put a small light on and feed them crackers, etc. After that we loved mice.. and she bought a white on and I bought a black one. I can't remember their names now, but they were so cute.

Then later I got a couple white rats. My SIL had a white rat that was soo smart. It did everything she taught it to do, and ran loose around the house.. He was so intelligent, and listened to everything she said. He was more like a little dog than a rat.

Later I had Parakeet that was really smart, but that is another story..;)

Was out camping, and a black field mouse (Color morph rarity) was under our camping platform. We fed his cheetos and such, which he sat and ate slowly. He then washed his whiskers and begged for more. We gave him some potato roll hot dog bun bits and some more cheetos which he stashed is his little hole where he sat and watched us go about our business.

We had a parakeet that was too smart, he got his cage door open and became cat lunch. After that we has slide hooks (leash hooks) to hold the doors shut. The next parakeet had some mad infatuation with my cat at the time and would literally scream her name whenever he saw her.
She died, and so did he not too long afterwards.
