Guinea Pigs first Bath
Well my babies are growing up and have begun shedding, and pooping much more:) I had them out yesterday and decided it was time for their first bath. They are still too small for me to feel comfortable putting them in the bath-tub so into the sink they went. What a playtime for them, it appeared they were having a blast, a first for me since My dearly departed Onion hated the whole process.

My sweet little Gadget and stubborn little Pickles, my girls.

PS....The Rodent Apartment is moving!!!
We will be relocating to a new home twice the size of this one in the beginning of September. Each creature will now reside in a space special suited for them and a whole bedroom will be set aside for free ranging the bigger animals. I can't wait!

I Love Method
Ok folks heres the scoop...I have been a long time Vegetarian, rodent lover etc, etc.
But I have realized I still have animal tested products in my home. I need to clean up. Over the past couple of weeks I have thrown out all the products I knew were tested on animals. I have fallen in love with Method, a line of products for the home that are Earth friendly and never tested on little babies...or big ones.

I want to share this great product with everyone and have a link posted at the bottom of this post for their homepage. You can also just go to your local Target and purchase some of their products, I have em all now, including the laundry detergent which I absolutely love! Thank you Method for caring.

PS......I have an infestation of Brown Recluse spiders in my apartment....all of my animals have been moved to a safe room free of spiders but I am now a prisoner of these arachnids..I am not quite sure what to do at this moment...Gotta love the Mid-West.

What a Week!
Wow, where to begin. Lets first start off with the amazing cage I ordered off of Martins Cages website. It arrived after only a few days and with little assembly, the rat girls have a new palace.

I am very please with this purchase and I have a link to the page at the bottom of this post.

Time for some silliness.

Gerber must have been a parrot in his past life because his favorite spot to perch is my shoulder. When Jeremy asked me where had Gerber gone, I merely pulled back my shirt collar to expose the prickly boy wonder.

A Tribute to Ariel..Saying Goodbye
I was given Ariel by a couple who had bought her to use as bait to lure a hawk out of their garage. She had a string tied around her and was dangled from the ceiling. After the hawk showed no interest she was put outside only to stay by the door while the cold weather slowly froze her. She was finally picked up by the couple and brought to me while working at McDonald's early one morning.

She has only been with me for a couple of months. Her back was crooked and she walked stiffly...but she still got around. She was one of the only mice Jeremy could free-range. She could come and go from her cage freely during the evening, always following her own trail and keeping us in her sight.

I have been up for 32 hours now. Working a double and coming home to see my angel resting in her coffin. She passed between 6 and 8 this morning, Laying down and just going to sleep in her wheel. She looks so peaceful, her crooked little back is crooked no more. Fly my little baby, I will see you again.

Ariel when we first got her, my little bull-dog.
