Walter's Pillow

Walter is resting his head on the rope. No he's not so massive that he barely fits the Sputnik rather he's lying on his brother!

Hammock Hugs

Plus a yawning Walter...

Mortimer Update

We took the old fat rat to the vet yesterday. We were worried as he's lost weight and use of his back legs is declining. However it looks to be muscle loss that explains the weight loss. Not much we can do to help him. We've got some human herbal pills for arthritis and but it's really a case of trying to make the cage suitable for a low level level living. The vet said to make him move still but he needs a surface with grip. He seems happy enough and certainly is still eating or drinking properly.

Do rats like noodles?

Yes, yes they do!

I'm king of the castle...

Although the boys get on well they do seem to spend a lot of time trying to be top rat. Here Mortimer is king of the castle...

Walter rules now...

then Raleigh gets a turn...

but ultimately there is no one master - they are all dirty wee rascals :)

Idiot Rat

Walter choose the wrong route round the Sputnik. We had to carefully lower the Sputnik so he could use the bars to get out!
