With us are the most important of our animals. Unfortunately, the below-mentioned ratties were too much for us to handle, and found a new home.
So here they are, the residents of 404!
Marvin the Magnificent dares to venture onto the new parquet.
The girls enjoy their expanded cage, but still nag us to roam our vast bedroom in the evenings.
Eddie remains Eddie, though he enjoys being in a more frequently visited room - more chance to squeal for foodies.
Puffy remains puffy, and we've just discovered the secret to fattening him up! Below is a cat, content to be in her kitchen, where food could at any moment appear. We're still working on the secret to slimming her down.
Unfortunately, we recently lost a valued member of our animal family. Tommy, the hamster that started it all, has passed away, peacefully, in her sleep. We aren't sure why, because we didn't think she was that old, and there's some concern that a rather traumatic escape experience a couple of nights prior might have led to her demise. In the middle of the night, we awoke to hear a great deal of scuffling coming from Eddie's cage. The Minou-cat was looking far more active than her usual sleepy self, pacing the cage and batting at the bars. Upon investigation, Tommy was found in Eddie's cage! Mysteriously, her cage door was found closed. The mystery remains one of the many crowning achievements of her life. Along with that, we remember her as the mother of Bandit, Creamy and Ratchet, and a great lover of the male hamster form. Surviving her is her daughter, Creamy, and her would-be boyfriend, Puffy. We appreciate all she has given us, and miss her dearly. R.I.P. Tommy.
And that's the news for now.
