Question About Fancy Rats And Fancy Mice?

Is it better to have a fancy rat or a fancy mouse as a pet?
Can I have the pros and cons on both fancy rats and fancy mice as pets?
ThankYou
Answers:
Fancy Rat
Pro- bigger, easy to handle if handled, does funny things, sleeps alot
Con-teeth keeps growing needs treats to help with teeth,
Fancy mice
Pro-easy to clean uhhhh
Con-too small to handle, gets away easyier, can fall out of hands and runs fast to get away

I prefer fancy rats, but it is your desicion. Mine is best, he may be larger than other rats, but he is the sweetest thing. Normal rats are about 5-6 lbs mine is like 7-9 lbs. And they let you know when there done with being handled. And if you do get one, try to get a male. The males are a lot nicier.
Mice are smaller and therefore don't smell as bad. They're really cute. You can carry them on your shoulder, but they can fall off and, because they're so light, you might not notice right away.
Rats are smarter and friendlier and can learn things. They can stay on your shoulder, and you know if something happens to them because they're heavy enough to feel. But people will freak out when they see you have a rat with you, even though you %26 I know how cute they really are.
Either of them is a great pet! And they don't smell as bad as hamsters, and they're a lot smarter than hamsters %26 gerbils.
