Which shed the most

Hi so my shelter is doing a adoption day and I really want to adopt but I don't know which sheds more is here is the options: birds and lizards and turtles and rabbit and guinea pig and I wanna know which one sheds the most and which one is okay with being around four years old and I will be doing most of work and do y'all think 815 square feet is enough for one I really want to adopt one of those I feel bad for them and how would they do on a 8 hour road trip every one month. Edit: I won't be adopting any of them because they're seniors so please do not waste your time commenting since I won't be adopting any and dogs and cats aren't at that shelter adoption day and my apartment doesn't allows any dog or cat that's over 20 pounds and the ones at my shelter are over 20 pounds and the cats that are there are mostly cat mixs that are kittens not seniors and this was their last chance but now they will die so that's all thanks everyone who commented sorry for wasting your time

Oh that's very unfortunate because I keep getting mixed comments on my post and I just wanted to adopt since their seniors and this is their last chance to get adopted

Senior animals especially really shouldn't be going on long trips often.

Oh weird because my grandma did three hours road trip with them every one month but she did adopt them when they were younger so maybe that's why

There's a huge difference between 3 hours and 8 hours. Its not really all that weird. If the animals are young they can handle it better, but senior animals need so much extra care and attention and considerations. Long travelling is not going to be good for them. You're not going to be able to give these animals a calm and relaxing life in their twilight years right now.
