To Touch?

It's interesting how little kids react to animals.

I had a little girl like three or four years old with her parents.
And they wanted to look at the hamsters/guinea pigs. 

Because their daughter was looking at them and they wanted her to pet it.

And the child seemed interested in petting them....

Until I opened the cage and first pulled out a guinea pig.
And she darted behind her mom so fast. 

It took both her parents petting the guinea pig to convince her to come forward to pet the guinea pig herself.

She didn't quite like that though.
Was more interested int he hamsters.

So I pulled out a Syrian Hamster. 

And she was still skittish about wanting to pet the hamster, would flinch away every time it moved. 
But she kept trying to pet it at least.

And finally decided that she didn't like it much and went and hid back behind her Mom. 

Not all little kids like playing with the small pets up close.
But at least she was brave and tried it.
