I know I've posted an unusual amount in the last twelve hours or so but this post is warranted because my rats are cute. My life is falling apart and I'm bawling my eyes out in Jacquie's office (and she's not even a counselor anymore) but my rats, or at least Marlowe, comfort me. I still miss Beckett like a bleeding hole in my heart, though.
He loves to hang out on my bookshelf
And the back of my chair! He's really relaxing here. They remind me so much of cats sometimes.

Here he is cleaning his tail - seriously he picks it up in both hands and holds it while he licks it all over. It's just SO cute. I love how they use their hands.
Okay, and in deference to the squeamish, links instead of photos...If you click the links you will see my pet Madagascar Giant Hissing Cockroaches. Fairly warned!
Roaches 1Roaches 2 I need to work on getting pictures of Cassidy, but sometimes he acts like he is afraid of the camera, and the other times he is in consant (and largely destructive) motion.
