My favorite animal. . .

Of the animals that I like the most, the meerkat and the penguin are my favorites. But it is obvious that I cannot take care of them at home as pets. So the animal that I prefer to have as a pet is the guinea pig. They are rodents larger than an adult hamster and smaller than rabbits.

I would like to have it as a pet since it does not take up much space, because of its adorable shape, and because it is easy to transport in case of an emergency or to play inside the house or garden.

Another point in favor is food, since guinea pigs, although they eat a lot, is not a big difference for a human diet due to their consumption of vegetables and vitamins that nourish them. Vegetables like lettuce, carrots, tomatoes, among others, are some of the things that guinea pigs eat.  

If I could choose it, I would like one with spots, that is, it is of various colors. Usually the guinea pig fur is yellow, white, brown or black. As well as it can have many colors at the same time. If I had a colored guinea pig, I would call it   “pintita” for the same reason.
