Rat Playtime




The rats (Cakey with the grey face and Jewel with the whiter face) haven't been featured on the blog much, mostly because they REALLY don't sit still for long. Today (Lily's last day of summer!) the girls made a rat maze on the table and fed them breakfast cereal in a rainbow of blocks. Cakey and Jewel sat still so I got photos that give a glimpse of how cute they are.

They have a big cage and spend alot of time napping during the day, in a pile on top of each other.

They eat anything we give them, except they did reject some apple the other day. I came back with some chicken and they each grabbed it in their little paws and ran to devour it alone on the ground floor.

They're still a bit rowdy so they don't just sit on our shoulder's while we watch TV, which I still hope will become a habit some day.
