Not Even a Mouse (but maybe a rat?)

The big Christmas gift this year is going to be a pet. Yes, no kidding, I agreed to get a pet.

I'm surprised by how excited I am about it. I found a breeder online and had to apply to adopt a pair of them, and was quite taken aback by how thrilled I was when I was approved for the adoption.

We just picked up the cage and some bedding. We ordered food from the breeder (for consistency). I think we're ready.

This morning, we added Timeless Romance and Carry That Weight to our family.

Yes, they are rats.

The first thing I will be working on is teaching them to come to their names and training them to use a litter box. We'll see how good I am at it.
