Hi all,
 
Just want to let everyone know that the two boys we got from the London SPCA
on the last day of Dec.  have fully integrated themselves into the household
zoo.  They are currently sharing a Midwest Condo with our other new
addition...Daisy- albino female bought from a local petstore about two
months ago.  Until the addition of Sonny and Henry, she had had her own cage
as she was terrified of Chichlet and Diesel.  Since we got the two new boys
however, she has been interacting with all of them, seemingly without any
major problems.
 
Funny story:
In our computer room, which is open to the living room, we have a large
U-shaped desk with a lot of boxes stored underneath.  On Saturday evening,
Daisy got it into her fuzzy mind that the boxes needed rearranging and so my
wife and I got to watch her for about an hour as she busily moved these
boxes( empty) from on spot to another.  Of course, as soon as she moved one
and started on another, we would move the first one back to its original
position.  You could almost see the confusion in her eyes when she would
find everything back where it had started out..  Had to laugh the whole
time...especially when she showed her ability to think a problem through...
one box was wedged in tightly enough that she couldn't pull it out of
position, so she climbed through the box, got in behind and proceeded to
push it out.
 
PS: Sonny and Henry go in to the vet on thursday...starting to feel their
oats and are ready for a few calculated snips ( altering)
 
Wish them luck please.
Manfred, Deb and the zoo of ten
