Do you have one? I've heard they're kind of like dogs in lizard bodies. I wanted one when I was younger, but my mom is freaked out by a surprising number of different animals (rats, mice, hamsters, gerbils, guinea pigs, snakes, lizards, etc...) A couple years ago our family was going to adopt guinea pigs, but my mom was scared of them so we adopted two rabbits instead. Isn't she crazy?! Who would be afraid of guinea pigs?
