My powers of bugging the hell out of people...

should be known the world over!

There's been a lone rattie in my local Pets at Home Adoption Centre thingy for ages now and I've been asking and asking since I saw him if I could take him home. I've been getting told "no" for weeks.

Today, I think Iain had the last straw and eventually caved! I got myself along to PAH before it shut and to my amazement found two of them needing a home!

So gave him a call to see if I'd still be allowed them and....he said yes! Yay.

Will post piccies in the morning time but they're black and white and brown and white hoodies. Just leaving them to settle in for now.

Just needed to post to vent excitement!

Awwww! Yay for you becoming a Mummy to some ratties!

hope you haven't given p@h too much for them - they aren't a great pet shop :/

I know, Tak. All my rats have been pet shop rats and when I found out about rescues I sworn I'd never buy from them again. But I dunno what came over me. I really wanted this boy, which then turned out to be two, so I couldn't leave one behind. They got a £5 off me and I told them that I'll donate some money to another charity and that I don't agree with PAH practices.

They're lovely boys, and the seem very friendly and well cared for. Their names are Emmett and Edward and they take my total up to 5. I'm spending tomorrow cleaning the Explorer and splitting it so that I don't end up with millions of babies!
