New names the kids have given the rat that Nat entrusted into my care
Champers (pronounced Shampers) formally Lucy......Cinders formally Mindy
They are going really well...Champers is so outgoing and jumps onto the wire at the top of the cage whenever you come over waiting to come out *L*...and Cinders..well she's a shy girl that one *L*...she pretend bites (nibbles) when ya go to pick her up and thats after playing hard to get *LOL*....but once she's out shes fine
Champers never sits still whereas Cinders just loves her ears gently rubbed between your fingers and will sit in bliss while ya do it *L*
I absolutely adore them...they get a base food (rat mix) plus a variation of carrots, apple, cooked chicken bones (they love these), strawberries, dog biscuits (they are a treat only), rolled oats, peas and corn.....and the odd bit of peanut butter
I'll get some pics over the weekend and post em for ya

They are so cute .... I loved having rats when I was younger (although my mum didn't LOL)!!
This forum is dangerous ... I see posts like this and think "just a couple won't hurt" ... haha

I love it when your pets meet for the first time - and in the real world they wouldn't be friends - but up close and personal they look at each other like "huh .... now what do I do"!
