Mine is very considerate and craps in his own garden. Mind you he does like to annoy the crap out of the neighbours dogs given he can jump a lot higher than they can and then just sits there is plain sight driving them bonkers. Serves them right for being thick I suppose, if they had any sense they would nip inside, get a ball of wool and sit in sight of the cat and then just wait patiently.

No amount of mad hair can make them likeable.
Says the human being!
Don’t do things in half measures. Go all in and reintroduce a beaver to your local area. It is slightly illegal if done in an uncontrolled manner, but they require zero maintenance and your son will spend loads of healthy time outdoors looking for them but failing to ever see them. And they’ll deliver a positive transformation of the local wetlands too.
But do not be tempted into getting a coypu. Similar to a beaver in appearance but the polar opposite in every other respect. Highly invasive and destructive, they also carry some nasty diseases. Avoid.

At least they're a bountiful food source.

I've had two Syrian hamsters, both lived for three years. They didn't mind being handled so long as there was food involved, just get them used to it from a young age. They also didn't bite.
Shall look in to this. Thanks.

My hamster lived 30 months. Got up one morning and found her dead. Looked like she had heart attack climbing through her house window. She had rigor mortis, so I couldn’t get her out. Had to bury the poor little thing still jammed in her house. How undignified

I usually recommend Chinchillas over Gerbils primarily because they don't smell as bad.

Or shave them and then they look like tiny hippos.
Bearded dragons are cool pets, when they're young you have to feed them live crickets. Only problem is all the stuff they need, upon leaving the pet shop around £150 lighter we had to go back to check we didn't need to get food for the food.
I had leopard geckos as a kid and on a couple of occasions some of their crickets escaped. Weeks and weeks there was some living under the fireplace, making an absolute racket
