Well we've added to our family
Meet Merlin: He is a kinda rescue - he seems to have the same kind of biting/nerves problem Rincewind had, which took a lot of time, effort, love and plasters to overcome and who is now a complete tart. Merlin's previous owner just didn't have the time to socilise him and thought it was unfair on him so she put him up for rehoming. Shes only 10 minutes drive away and I'd met her before so I offered to take him in. He is currently in a borrowed cage and probably will be for a few weeks maybe months depending on how introductions with my boys go. He's about 12/13 months old so 5/6 months older than my original 3. He is also a ball-less wonder (Em got him de-nadded to see if that would help his biting and nerves but it seems it wasn't just hormonal) This pic is on off Ems photobucket - once he has calmed down and settled in a bit more, I'll take some of my own |

He came to the open door and sniffed me of his own free will this morning (this is already a good start - that or he was just being nosey and will go for the throat next time )

Went into the petshop in cosham to get fish food for work and some mini bonio bars for the boys and spotted baby ratties - they were so bouncy and playful I stood there for about half hour Unfortunatly they're girlies but there was a couple with at least the rex gene as they had curly whiskers and there was a little grey dumbo I think dumbos are great |
