They are awesome! I have five of them (wanted two, turned into an adoption agency), and they never cease to fascinate me. They all have their own distinct personality and are always up to something cool. Two of them are pretty sketchy around people so they don't come out much, but they are also the construction guys that constantly make beds for everyone with newspaper and anything else I give them. One is a bit of a runt, and if he's calm enough he'll just sit on your chest nestled under your hand. The other two are damn near dogs. When I come up to the cage they run up to the door to see what I'm doing there, and I play little games with them all the time.
But they do tend to freak out those that watch too many movies.
