At it again...

Discord in the cage yet again. Yep, it's Jorge. He just doesn't seem to understand that we are all friends. He really needs us to bow down to him and I really don't care too. So we run and chase and scream at each other. Captain worse off then the rest of us cause we don't mind standing up to him. Captain is still small yet older than me. He needs to get a back bone.
So Ma says his neuter is still schedules... and he may still lose his jiggles. I feel bad for him, just before Xmas like that but if it's going to make the cage happier place it might just be worth it. Davis and Rylee are also pretty hyper but not like Jorge.

Today, my favourite, peas!!

Comfy Cozy

Ma keeps saying we are spoiled. But really, are we the ones asking for all these great colourful toys? I think Ma likes them more than we do. But today, oooh boy, did she get us a nice one. She says it's a cat sack but we wont tell the cats that we are the ones that have it. heehee
This one is so comfy cozy, I'm sure glad Ma thought of us when she saw it. Although, I smell a wee bit of cat on it. Mmm, I wonder if she tried it on the cats first and then gave it to us? I could see the cats not liking this thing, those three girls are very fussy indeed. What do you expect, they are cats after all. :)

Buggies be gone.

Ma gave us some icky medicine, she sai we were far too itchy and she was right. She said the flavour was apple but I'm not sure I believe that. I took it like a big boy but some of the others had to be forced. I saw Ma pick them up and put on their bottom lip. Some tried swatting it away, it was quite funny. But now, a month later and an extra time later, we feel so much better. I really do hate buggies. Even Jorge is different now. He no longer goes after everybody. I wonder if the buggies were hurting him more? Ma is quite happy now... and told me that Jorge may have saved his jiggles. Yay!

My Home

When I first came to the new place with the new Ma, I was put in an escape proof home. It was pretty decent with an extra level. Ma would put cubes in it, my favourite, it's so funny cause Boo would make himself a secret compartment in the cube. He would always scare me when I would go in there, he'd come out yelling BOO! inside joke. heehee
Well now we are in a much bigger home, the bars are wider apart and in the beginning, I could fit my whole body out of it. I was very sneaky but it sure made Ma upset. But now, I've got a big belly and no more squeezing through. My home has two full levels, lots of space, open plan type of living. I have 2 additional balconies overlooking the big floors, there is also one really cool big ball, hung on hooks. When you go in there, it rocks! Ma also adds these cubes, hammocks, tubes and other fun soft places to hide and sleep and cuddle. But my most favourite is the nice soft fabric on all the floors, Ma says they are fleece. But... what I do is, I crawl underneath the fleece and make everything on top tip over or fall out of the home. Heehee, that's how I get rid of all those other guys' poops. I'm so smart, but then it gets Ma upset again. Aww... Ma loves me, this I know, cause she tells me every day. :)

Jiggles all the way...

It's been set. I heard Ma on the phone and in a few weeks, Jorge will lose his jiggles. I'm a little scared for him but Ma said that it's going to help him feel better. He's just so wild and running all over the place like he owns everything. Poor Captain is not even allowed out of the cage, he just won't let him. I've also seen him frantically putting his scent on everything. He's 7 months old, so he thinks it's time we all bow down to him... well, he's got another thing coming. heehee.
Now, I best stay on good behaviour, wouldn't want to lose my jiggles. I wuv my jiggles.
Ooooh, we had romaine again. I love it!

Boo

Introducing my bro, Boo. Ma calls him Booboo or BooBear. She tells us that she just couldn't think of anymore names, something about too many rescues. Not sure what that meant but I think fits Boo very well. Why? Well, he likes to hide a lot under covers. He'll come out just when you least expect it. Me and him cuddle together, mainly because we try to hide from the Jorge. There is safety in numbers. It's too bad we can't convince Captain to come hide with us, that poor boy keeps getting in the way of Jorge.
Boo is sweet and quiet and still quite shy. But I think he's gonna come around. ;)

Treat for me?

So I'm minding my own business, cleaning my jiggles and all, all of a sudden, I get this thing shoved in my face, I'm not sure what it is but Ma is saying sweet things for me to taste it. And what a surprise, it's so yummy!! It's pink and thick and delicious. I only had a bit though. Ma said it's going to help me stop the noise I'm making. She's crazy, I don't know what she's talking about. She says I sound like a motor. ... crazy lady.
Oooh, I got some more of that stuff tonight too!! Weeeee. :)

Broccoli

We had broccoli today. Oh what a glorious day it is when we have broccoli. It was so pretty and fresh and green. Sweet! We also have our veggies after our out time. We zoom everywhere and really work up an appetite. I've heard of these things called yoggies but I've never tried them. I'm sure it can't be better than my wonderful broccoli. Yum!

Can't wait for tomorrow... I think it's going to be romaine. slurp.

The Romeos

I feel a need to vent... we've got the romeos in the cage, they are young bucks who think are all that, ok... so they are all that but geez they drive me crazy. They've been named Jorge, Rylee and Davis. Jorge is the boss and lets every rat know it. Rylee is the adventurous one and Davis is the Casanova.
I always know when it's close to out time for us because those boys start to whip around the cage. They get so excited, making so much noise it wakes me up, even when I'm sleeping in my invisible spot under the covers on the top shelf. No one can find me there. heehee.
The door opens and those three fly out the cage. They are simply all over, me and Boo, we are cautious, take our time, I know there are other bigger animals in this place but not them, they just don't care? What's worse, they get the three girls super excited too, they get all pouncy and bouncy and fast. Only Captain stays behind, he's too cautious if you ask me.
I like to hang back, stay under cover until I know for sure everything is clear. When the mom is done cleaning the cage, she always sits down with us. This drives Jorge nuts, he's always all over her, running, jumping, climbing, wrestling... I try to stay clear of her... I've seen what she does to poor Boo, she calls it belly kisses, I call it torture.
I wonder if I'll get as lively as the three romeos?
Maybe I'll go see if Ma's got some food?

They call me Treat.

They came and picked me up, I was little, there were three of us, I don't quite remember how it all went down but it was fast. One minute I'm running after mom and the next I'm in a new cage. And they called me Treat. At first I wasn't sure if it was Hitreat or just Treat, I wish she'd make up her mind.

But that was over 3 months ago, since then, I've been added to a really cool group of kids. Some think they are better than others but I don't care. My bro, Boo sometimes called Boo Bear *snicker* ...ya, what do I have to laugh about, I'm often called Tweat Tweat, he's still pretty worried and anxious, he thinks one of the bigger kids is stalking him. I tell him to pay no mind to that Jorge, we'll soon be as big as him.
Tonight, it was daddy's birthday. Man, I could smell that Chinese food, we were all hanging off the bars, but they didn't seem to notice us starving just behind them. Then, just when we thought we caught their attention, one of the tall boys came over and started taunting us. Ok, so he was trying to pet us through the bars. It's certainly not what we wanted, let me tell ya. So, the group disbanded and I made my way to our food bowl. Bleh... another block I guess. *sigh*
