Should I get a IPhone 4S or a pet rat (I'm a animal lover)?

Ok so my PARENTS would never let me get a iPhone or any pet besides my fish. So my dad said he would get me a iPhone or a rat! But I have to pick one… I love animals so much, and I already have a phone but it's kinda junky:/ ok I need advice on witch one to pick!

I'm an animal lover too, but personally I would get the iPhone and wait a while and save up for your own pet, then you can have both! It would be a lot harder to save up for an iPhone if you got a rat… And then if you choose iPhone now you could even get something other than a rat in the future.

I'd go for the phone. More stability.
