Residing in an apartment building implies you have a limited area to keep an exotic animal as a pet. Fortunately, there are exotic animals that can live in tiny, cramped areas. So living in an apartment is not an issue if you want to keep an exotic pet. Another plus factor about exotic animals is that they do not need to be taken for regular walks for their exercise needs. But the first thing to do is ask your apartment manager or homeowner for permission. Also, you have to review your rental contract to know if keeping pets is allowed on the premises. If you have done these things, then you are good to go. Here are a few exotic animals that can live in a limited area, such as an apartment:
- Ferrets. Ferrets are energetic animals. They enjoy interacting and playing with other ferrets and with people as well. They sleep all day and are usually active at night since they are nocturnal animals. Ferrets can be litter-trained. Ferrets can live in a spacious enclosure where they can keep in their natural habit. Whenever you make your ferrets outside of the cage, be sure to make the room ferret proof to avoid risks and also from escaping.
- Hamsters. You should start handling hamsters at a young age so they will get used to it and be tamed enough as they mature. The two most popular types of hamsters kept as pets are the Dwarf and Syrian hamsters. Dwarf hamsters are relatively interactive while Syrians are the solitary ones and want to be caged separately.
