Ever since I was little, I have been easygoing and interested in being around people, though I love my independence. I know that my mommy is the big alpha, that's why I am so submissive when my mommy picks me up or takes me out of the cage, but inside the cage I am the alpha!
My best friend is my sister Cashew. We love hanging out in pocket hammies and snuggling together. You can often see just our heads close together and peeking out over the edge. Mommy thinks that this is the cutest thing she has ever seen.
Besides my sister, there are two other ratties in our cage - Pip-Squeak and Tipper. Although I act like I'm not super interested in either of them, if they weren't here I would be very sad. One time Pip-Squeak hurt her paw and she had to spend the night in the carrier next to Mommy's bed and I missed her a lot. I was very happy when she was able to come back and stay in our cage.
When we get to come out for free-time, I love checking out the whole apartment to make sure that everything is where it should be and I especially love checking out all of the new stuff that Mommy brings home! I love to climb and like to spend most of my free-time hanging out on top of the cage - the higher the better!!
I'm a super picky eater and will dig through my food dish to find the most tasty pieces to eat first. If anyone gets in my way, I push them aside until I have what I want. I used to fight with my sister over treats, but now I know that Mommy always has treats for everyone, so I wait my turn (though I must admit, I'm not very patient ;))
I've never been one to run on our wheel, so I've gotten a little chubby over the past year - so Mommy measures out our food now. I used to get yogies everyday, but now I only get them once or twice a week. Luckily, Mommy found some other yummy dog treats that taste like berries and others that taste like apples and are low protein and low fat, so I can have one of those everyday. But my favorite food is definitely baby oatmeal!
Well, I gotta' go - it's nap-time and I'm tired! Talk to you later!
