Should You Get Mice

Mice are good companions, they can be musied but their cage needs to be cleaned once a week. On the one hand mice are funny to watch but on the other you'll be watching them most of the time because it can be hard to catch them! So should you get mice? Only if you can give them enough attention, if you are at work all day your mice won't be that miserable. But if you have one mouse and you are home only on weekends it will be a very depressed mouse.

Are Robots Good Companions?

Imagine you wanted a pet seal, but you didn't have the resources. You might get a guinea pig, or you might get PARO. PARO is a seal robot social companion. So what are the advantages? On one hand it can be turned on and off and it doesn't need feeding. On the other hand it doesn't have a soul and does only what it's programmed to do. PARO purrs when you pet him, and also you can pretend to feed him. But PARO is kind of boring to be with if you think about it. It never does anything wrong because it's programmed very precisely. It can't get  in a mood or anything like that. For me it's kind of disturbing.
