Thanks so much for that info, Karen! After breakfast I am going to go run out to the store to buy some. I figure that I can offer the girls two water bottles: one with water and one with green tea. I will change them to solely green tea once I know they will drink it.

The girls are still doing pretty good. Both get around fine and seem to be as happy as always. Akio's tumor, thankfully, does not seem to be growing at a very fast rate at all. Pocky's, on the other hand, is now nearing the size of a ping-pong ball. Once it starts to interfere with her getting around will probably be when I have to say goodbye...

Thanks to everyone who has kept them in your thoughts and prayers.
