Dobby & Skittles – Can We Have Some More?

December 1, 2017

We have a special bowl that we get most of our vegetables and treats delivered to. But now and then a paper plate shows up with yummy food. Of course, the treats are always appreciated, but it’s a real bonus when they give us a plate, too. New places to sleep. And paper to shred. …

I really like when my humans want to sit for a long time and watch TV or read a book. Gives me a chance to curl up for a warm nap. Here I am on some of my favorite pajamas. They are so soft and warm that I can’t help but rub my teeth together …

Ratty Tales – Can We Come Out Now?

Bath time is exciting. We all have our own little routine once we hit the water. Skittles runs to the far side of the tub and hugs one of the jets. Shark Bait huddles on top of the filter. Dobby sits near the drain while Batty swims back and forth between everyone. For a long …

Dobby – It’s Not a Tissue Box But…

November 27, 2017

What the heck. I just curled up here on top for my nap on this day. Though I didn’t have any cover to hide me, I was able to see and more importantly, smell everything around me. We never know when our humans will go into their kitchen and make food. And if we act …

Shark Bait – This is a Nice Nest

November 22, 2017

We spend a fair share of our day sleeping. And besides tissue boxes one of our favorite things to have when we nap is a blanket. Size isn’t particularly important, even a tiny scrap of material is attractive. Like dogs we pull, push, turn, and twist the bedding until we get it situated just right. …

Dobby- All the Smells!!

November 21, 2017

I have one of the best noses ever. No matter where I am I can always find something good to sniff. Usually it’s some kind of food our humans are making for us. Every now and then we have a window open and then we can smell all kinds of animals, plants, trees and flowers.

Batty & Dobby – Pinned You

This is one of our favorite games. Our humans used to confuse our fun with fighting. They would watch us and try to distract us from each other. It didn’t take us long to convince our humans that we just have extra energy we must burn off. Now they take pictures and laugh at us.

Wouldn’t you know it, I have a nice tissue box all to myself, I am finally comfortable and sure enough my cage mates have to barge in. Don’t get me wrong I do love my buddies. But I love my tissue box, too. A few weeks ago this wasn’t really much of an issue. Now …

Shark Bait – Snuggle Time

November 15, 2017

One of my favorite things to do is cuddle up to one of my humans. It doesn’t really matter which one. All that I require is a warm soft spot that doesn’t move too much. None of my buddies likes to curl up like this and I have no idea why not. Everyone else always …

Skittles – Carrot

November 14, 2017

During playtime recently I managed to get a moment to myself. I’m the old man in the family. And sometimes I feel it. On this day everyone was acting so crazy, doing all kinds of stunts. This was perfectly fine with me because it gave me plenty of time to enjoy this yummy carrot. No …
