Subject: Animal ghosts-my imagination?

I have always loved anything to do with the paranormal for as young as I can remember but in my more recent adult years I have started to question what is real & what isn't. When I was aged 9 I had a pet guinea pig that I absolutely adored & it died in very tragic circumstances which left me heartbroken. When it was alive my mum used to let me bring it in the house to run around the living room & it used to love hiding behind the sofa. Not long after it had died I was in the living room playing with my dolls when out of the corner my eye I spotted a white shape run & disappear behind the sofa which was of the same size & shape of my guinea pig! It made me turn my head to look at it & then made me run out of the room rather alarmed! At the time I was absolutely 100% sure that this was infact my dear departed pet but have doubts now.
Another time when I was 12, my best friend & I were at her house, watching tv in the living room. I was sat on the sofa against the wall & she was sat in a chair by the window when we turned our heads to talk to each other. As we were chatting we saw a a white shape scurry across the floor from the direction of the sofa to under her chair, we both squealed and she lifted her feet up to allow it to run under the chair. The shape didn't look solid but almost transparent & on investigation we found nothing. Her pet hamster had died recently & we were convinced that we had seen it's ghost & were very freaked out by it!
As I am getting older(an ancient 31 now!), I have thought long & hard about my experiences & whether an over-active imagination was to blame. I have lost other pets, friends & relatives since then & not had any similar occurances. Is it due to the fact that I've become more rational as an adult & maybe blocked a part of my brain that was more open & sensitive to the realm of the afterlife or was it just as I've aformentioned the over-active imagination of a child? I would be very interested to hear your comments & experiences & hope that someone can put my mind at rest! Thanks for reading this!
