I loved having a small turtle when I was a kid. If that fails maybe you could even go with a frog? They have those kits where you start with a pollywog and get to watch it go through all the stages.

Personally I love my ferrets but unless they are raised with a cat, probably not a good idea. Plus they can get several diseases from the cats that are more harmful to them.

Just something to think about.
