Hi Leslie,
I'm just a new FML member, and I'm not sure what everyone else thinks, but
I've been told by reputable people the 2 hours my baby gets per day is
plenty.  I'm a university student, and I went through the same dilemma-am I
being cruel?  But Squirt has a large cage, and I split his out time into 2
parts-half an hour in the morning while I get dressed, and then 1.5 hours
when I get home.  Especially at night, I give him the human interaction he
needs-in the morning he amuses himself attacking my feet and stealing my
towel and socks!
 
At least your babies have each other to play with in their cage during the
day.
 
So at least from my point of view, quit feeling guilty, keep showering your
love on your cute lil fuzzy faces, and good luck!
 
Vanessa and Squirt
