Had a wonderful visit with Austin & family on Sat afternoon. Sorry, I didn't take very many pics, and most of them crashed 'cause I set the focus manually to catch a snake in a cage and forgot to set it back. Austin has a great collection going. Loved the GE portable, much fun, and the spin rev-up sounds like a Unimatic! His laundry studio under construction in the 'shed' will be most excellent. Venus's Frig range is pristine, certainly meets the definition of gently-used. Quack..quack..quack..quack..quack..quack.... say the ducks. |

....and the lizard, ducks, mouse, rabbit, cats, dog, etc., etc. Little did Glenn know that when he stepped into our yard he would be entering the "Wilder Kingdom".;-) |

1.) Follow instructions on lid. 2.) Is the power cord really plugged in? Check twice! You may be insane after all. 3.) Check your tools. Do you have what you need? Screwdriver or butter knife? Clothespin? Advanced users may need wire nuts and electrical tape. 4.) Check your seating height. Can you see everything clearly? Is your seat both tall enough to see into the basket, but short enough to provide comfort? 5.) Dress appropriately. Are you watching a Kelvinator? A raincoat might be a good idea. 6.) Enjoy! :-D |

Jason, Luna was BEAUTIFUL. I have 2 rats, Sneezer and Templeton. Tempy is just monsterous. He is bigger than most kittens LOL. He's a fun one though. He's a little daredevil. He also unfortunately has a neurological disorder that causes his head to slightly tilt. Sneezer on the other hand is a LOVE. he knows his name, responds to simple commands, and is absolutely in love with me. When I call his name he comes running out of his house and waits patiently for me to open the door, when I do finally open it, he jumps from his house into my hands. I always give him a big kiss on his head and always licks my face as soon as I take him out. He is absolutely the dog of Rats. He is beyond smart and beautiful. Sometimes we'll have naptime and I'll lay down on my bed and He'll snuggle up to my chest and lay his head on my arm and completely konk out. I tell ya, I just don't know what I'd do without my 2 boys. Venus, Rats live an average of 2-5 years, although 5 years is a little on the rare side, I'd say a more accurate age range would be 2-3 years. The same with mice, you would be hard pressed to get more than 3 years max out of a mouse. The longest my mousies have ever lived was 2 12 years. I'm so glad there's another rat lover in the club LOL :) Take Care, Geoff |

I suppose our house growing up was a bit like the Clampetts on a much lower budget but we had all sorts of things like meeces, rats, gerbils,mice,lizards,snakes,guinea pigs, an owl, a rooster,budgies and of course the dog and cat to normalize things. The cat was oblivious to them all and the dog was a super nanny watching over them
