Baby ratties!

[juliet]

Successfully fetched two baby ratties from Ipswich last night - now named Ash and Rowan. Photos of them behind cut; and more at fotopic. They are SO VERY SMALL & SWEET! Ash is currently in my sleeve.

Haha, they're small and she's big, it's funny. See you later, like, about 7:30 - 8.

Aw...I forget how cute baby ratties are!

I would have suggested that to go with your CofE choice of Rowan, the other one should be Cardinal Joseph Rat. Except that he's Benedict by now.

World Of Cute!

My heart is breaking from the tiny rat adorability...

They're gorgeous. A chocolate and a mink, aren't they? Pretty girls! Who did you get them from, out of curiosity?

[juliet]

Yep, Rowan is chocolate - Ash apparently started off chocolate but is rapidly silvering up - I think she doesn't *quite* count as mink yet, but is getting there! We got them from Mel of Darkstar Stud, in Ipswich.

Introductions have been going OK, & they're all now in the big cage together. Ash seems to think that she's big enough to take on Bramble, & Bramble keeps forcibly disabusing her of this notion - & then looking at us in this pained 'what have I done to deserve this?!' way :-) She's already more active, though - after Luthien died she was spending most of her time just sitting in the house, which I really didn't think was good for her.

Very cute! So small! Must resist the urge to crochet tiny mittens...

Don't you feel threatened by the large number of people posting with cat icons? *grin*
