Yes, the male looks after the eggs and takes them to the water source when they've hatched. As far as being parental the females just lay the eggs. Dart frogs are smarter than you'd think but still not exceptionally, so I doubt the females connect "little spheres that came out of me" and "tiny fishy thing." Now the females hunker down and watch them like television or fishbowls though.

Not exactly a pet, but this little guy's been living/hiding in the ferns in front of my house for weeks.
Yup! But the sound is too high-pitched for us to naturally hear.
And now I've got the image of a laughing, happy rat in my head. :3
Well, I have no idea about happy. A lot of people don't like being tickled, so I have no idea if that's the case for rats too.
... I still do it, because it's a good way to get them to attack my hand for playing.
Two of our three cats; the one on the right is Kronos (nicknamed Big McLargeHuge) and the little girl on the left is Theia (Tiny McLittleSmall). It's made all the more amusing by the fact she beats up on him on a regular basis, despite there being an 11.5 lb difference between them (7 lbs versus 18.5).
This is Striker B. Underfoot, aka Stinky Mink, aka The Wifferous Weasel. He's a 3-year old champagne male who sleeps in a fur-lined hat (no, not doomweasel fur) and lords it over all the upstairs doomweasels. Because he's such a dominant male, he produces a lot of musk, which he spreads all over him like a mustelidae Hai Karate. It's not an offensive odour but you certainly know when he's close by.
He is also my main sock-stealer, so if your socks go missing, it's because of him. Be afraid.

She jumps up there like that every evening
Macchiato aka Kiki.
Kiki's been with us for just over a month! YAY!
Artemis played too hard and fell asleep on the floor.
Belly rub STAT!
Correction: all cats are spoiled. And jerks. Spoiled jerks.
Shortly after we moved here (beginning of June), we adopted a cat from the closest SPCA.
I present: Alia.
Then, a few months later (late September), Eriol decided that Alia was lonely and needed a friend. So we adopted another kitty from the local rescue.
I present: Pandora.
They are both technically 'long-haired', and my clothing is never the right colour any more, no matter what I wear and how many lint roller sheets I go through.
And no, Alia is not deaf, despite the blue eye and white fur.

She just likes to pretend she is when you want her to do something?

He looks like my Merlin - snotty and bitchy at the same time.
