They are very cute and lovey, but they can sometimes be smelly, so you probably need to change there cage at least once a week. Most of them get scared when you turn on the vacuum so you may need to take it out of the room it's on when you are going to. Also you should feed it 2-3 times a day and change it's water every couple days.

P.S: DON'T STICK YOUR FINGER IN THE SIDE OF THE CAGE BECAUSE IT MIGHT BITE YOUR FINGER... but if you do and it bites you, it shouldn't hurt terribly bad.

Hope that helps! (:
