Weight update

Published by Missy under General, Weight

Just a quickie since we’re leaving for Minnesota tomorrow (we’ll be back on the 6th).  My Dad is babysitting the boys and I wanted to get a measure of their weight before we go and another, of course, when we get back.
Othello is sitting at 413
Hamlet is at 388

Secret Santa

Published by Missy under General, Hammocks

Well, my pal (Alleycat, aka Irene) received her gifts today! I swear, I love sending hammocks even more than I like receiving them! Not that I am not looking forward to my gifts (which should be arriving on the 23rd, and I’ll post pics) but I just looooove to give people things.  I [...]

Sewpbox

Published by Missy under General

Just to mention — I started a sewing blog for myself last night since I seem to be posting more and more pictures on here of things that I have sewn that actually have absolutely nothing to do with rats.

142!

Published by Missy under General, Hammocks

Oh yay, oh yay!  I finally found someone to sell me a Ferret Nation 142 who didn’t bail out on me without warning!  The cage is sitting out in the driveway right now, drying off after a nice hosing down.  Once it dries I’ll scrub it all down (although it is in good shape and [...]

Lazy rats

Published by Missy under General, Rat Tails, Weight

Lazy bRats! I spend hours making them a beautiful Christmas cage with bunches of snuggly hammocks and what do they do? Sleep on the liners. Or in the litterbox. At least they aren’t under the liners yet.
I weighed the boys tonight — Hamlet is sitting at 335g with Othello at 338g. [...]

Christmas purse

Published by Missy under General

I finished Jamie’s (my older sister) Christmas present today.  When I saw this fabric at the store I knew I had to have it, since it just screamed her name at me.  The picture on the right shows Anya modeling it.  I had some fun making fabric “yo-yos” today (the flowers, they’re kind of hard [...]
