Definitely, the goldfish. There's not a lot you have to do to take care of them. And, they are widely available. All you really have to do is feed it goldfish flakes daily and change out the water I the tank regularly.

Crickets, although I've never kept them as pets. I keep them as a feeder insect for my Bearded Dragon, and all they need is a RubberMaid container or Kritter Keeper. They eat just about anything, though you should be careful with water as they can drown. They would make very unique pets, too, I've not heard of many people who keep them as pets!

Guppies, too, would be good. As far as I know (someone please correct me if this is incorrect) they do not need a water heater, and you can keep quite a few in a 10-gallon tank. I would research them a little more, though.

DO NOT LISTEN TO PEOPLE WHO TELL YOU TO GET THESE PETS:

Hermit Crabs: Hermit Crabs are terribly neglected in captivity, and if you do want them, do not listen to one word the pet store tells you, they know nothing. Read here instead: hermitcrabparadise.com

Parrots: They are not beginner pets. If you do want a bird, I suggest a finch or a canary.

Reptiles: All reptiles need very specific heating and lighting to thrive. All Geckos will drop their tails, and a child as young as eight would be very rough I'm sure.

(By the way, just because I'm a grammar and spelling freak, "most easiest" is not correct. It can be either "most easy" or "easiest", but not both.)

If you are looking for fish Betta's are very easy and you don't need a filter. If you are looking for a rodent a rat is easy but you need to interact with it 1 hour daily. If you are looking for a reptile a leopard gecko is easy. I have 2 hermit crabs they are fairly easy. Lastly a zebra finch is easy to.

I've never had a pet but I would say either a small dog, a hamster, or a guinea pig.

Are gerbils and mouse alike?

they are similar, but not the same. they are both rodents, but have different shaped faces, and mice are slightly smaller. gerbils have fury tails, mice have hairless ones.gerbils hop on their hind legs, mice crawl around. gerbils smell less, are more inteligent (usually), and become more tame (usually). mice are the easiest small pet to look after as they are the least inteligent small animal. gerbils are more fun, and still very easy to look after. most people prefer pet gerbils to pet mice.
