Too Cute

Beautiful little squishies

I picked up my new rattlets on Saturday, and my god I love them! As soon as I was holding them they were licking me, and in the carrier on the way home they were being adorable, not at all scared, just curious. After exploring their new cage for a bit they were ready to come back out and play, but eventually wore themselves out and fell asleep bless them.The next day after a bit of play time, I started introducing them to my big boys. I put them all into a hamster cage so they were together but not all ontop of each other, and took them outside so they were all distracted by the new smells and not so scared of each other. It went, great, there was a fair bit of sniffing but that was about it. Elvis and Jules really didn't seem that fussed, and the babies just wanted to explore. I am so pleased it went as well as it did, since this is the first time I have ever introduced rats.

(The cage wasn't on it's side, I just can't rotate this picture for some reason!)

Two of these little beauties are mine!!!

That's right, these are the four bucks born to Coastboat's latest litter, and tomorrow I'll be taking two home with me!!! I'm not sure which two, and I don't have a preference, but I wish I could take them all the little cuties! Will post pictures of them tomorrow if I can tear myself away from them to my laptop!
[UPDATE] The top right and the bottom right are my lil darlings!

I need me a mini teddy..

..although I think whoever took these had the right idea, that teddy wouldn't last 5 seconds if my boys were awake to see it...

Cage update - pics

Cage update

We did some more work on the rat cage this weekend. I got them a wheel which fits nicely. They haven't used it yet but maybe they will. I also got a cool fish tank decoration that I've put in with them, it's a fallen log with some plants growing off it and a hole going through. I think they are a bit pudgy to get all the way through, but maybe when I get the new kitts they will stash things in it. I've also added in a hanging plant pot, and a new ladder. I'll upload some pictures soon!

What are YOU doing tonight?

I'll be watching the final housemates entering Big Brother! Loser? Maybe, but I don't care. I don't watch every single day, I just like to see who goes in so that if I do happen to watch any episodes I at least know a bit about them. But as this is the last BB, I am going to watch what I can. I didn't watch the last one and regret it, as I hear there was an hilarious talking tree?! I hope tree makes an appearance this time. And of course I will miss Marcus, or "voice over guy",  I heart him :)

Overdue update!

Wow, only taken a month to do a new post, guess it's a good thing no one is following me yet..

I am sooo excited, I am getting two little kittens from Coastboat Rattery and they are nearly ready to come home =D
I cannot wait! And once they are nicely settled I can start on introducing them to E&J and have a big happy ratty family!

In other news, I just had my hair lightened, like really lightened. I'm going for blonde, and it kind of is a sort of honey blonde now, but I will go back and have it lightened again until it's the perfect shade I'm looking for. I keep forgetting and then catching a glimpse in a mirror and freaking out haha.
