Mortimer and Wheeler: December 2011

Saturday 31 December 2011

We've got a houseful of guests. Furry, betailed, whiskery, curious houseguests.

There's Walter who Minnie describes as the "fat bottomed rat"

Then his brother Raleigh who hasn't been pronounced fat bottomed but is not exactly svelte in the posterior

Horatio who is not so keen on the girls being so keen on him and hides out between their waking hours.

Nelson who is blind in one eye (he's just been eye-gooed here). He's just so friendly and lovely.

Oh and the latest acquisition... Teeny cutie pie Bothwell.

They may be small but it requires a fast eye and hand when they all come out to play...

Just remember it's not so much a large rat as a small child.

I spy with my little eye a little rattie... hello Nelson. (originally posted over at Kids, craft and chaos)

I can see 5 - on the left Raleigh and Nelson, Bothwell is in the tube while Walter is at the door and it's Horatio's tail!

Getting five rats to pose is tricky but they all come to the door when they think the nom will be tasty, tasty nom.
