I'm glad you survived the cutbacks, but that's small comfort when they put you through hell. Hope things improve - all of them! Thanks for the pics - is Dante (new name??) still a keeper?
Dante is the name. It's the only one he responds to when he's in trouble so I've just resigned myself to leaving it alone. He's settling in well - still trying but for the most part, he's miles ahead of where he used to be. Still brainless but no more counter-surfing or jumping on the furniture or chewing on the bedspread. We're still working on the begging front but at least he no longer takes food right off the fork/plate when I'm trying to eat.
There are a couple of times when he hurts her because he's bigger and heavier but she turns around and nails his...um...conveniently placed manly-parts in return so there's yelping on both sides. They've learned that if they yelp though, I start yelling so for the most part, they just wrestle around and chew on each other....all...day...long.
I took a couple of videos for you so you can see how loud they get with growling and wrestling. It sounds terrible but it's all play.
To be honest, they're usually moving too fast to see much fang action but since they usually decide to Bitey Face Smackdown rightinfrontofme while I'm trying to relax on the couch, I just get the camera and take a ton of pics. Usually one or two hilarious ones in the bunch.
I took a couple of vids for Reggy after she made a comment about how scary they look rather than playful - I just need to find the motivation to go through them and put them up.
And the only time to be scared is when Princess BigButt or her apprentice Duncecap BigButt wham into the fishtank accidentally (and all 29 gallons start to slosh dangerously). Other than that, just stay out of the way!

That first pic: she looks really demonic in a hilarious way! (But I think I'd be a bit scared when they start playing like that.)
*big hugs* missed you around here!
