    **2 New Kids (rats)**

    Yup..... we got suckered into rescuing two other ratties. They are 5 week old male Dumbos. The minute I saw them, I fell in love. They are living in their own tank for a while, and are going to the vets next week for a check-up, and to get neutered (sorry guys).


    Here's Oscar:



    Here's Fred:




    They are so darn cute! They are going up north with me this weekend too. Oh boy, I love em!

    The legend says that Mohammed adored cats. When one of them was sleeping on his sleeve and he had to go out, Mohammed supposedly cut off the sleeve so as not to disturb his pet.

    I adopted a rat from the ASPCA last March and am now a total ratophile. Clyde is the best boy ever. He has brought so much joy to us, we just love em. I am getting some photos scanned to post them. His color is very unique, he's light tan, he's a super cutie.
