What shall we do today Walter

Same thing we do every day Raleigh.... try to take over the world.

Phase 1: Gain the trust of the small people:

Christmas Fun

Each rat found a cracker in their stocking - filled with an apple strudel. Not that they were that impressed!

Mortimer is a Munching Master

Since Mortimer's back legs have pretty much called it a day he can't really sit back on them to eat. Instead he has adopted this position with one front paw down while the other holds and rotates the food. On the downside this is a tad slow so we've taken to bringing him out on his own so he can enjoy his special high calorie nom without fear of the other trying to pinch it before he can finish.

Mortimer Update

Mortimer has been rather poorly. He had a lump which we decided to leave (though keep a check on). Anyway it turned out to be an abscess - poor boy had another trip to the vets - yet more antibiotics and some serious emptying later (the mental scares of which will stay with Tom and I forever) and he's doing much better.

What's up Doc?

The question we are all asking - can the rats dance?

Features Mortimer, Walter, Raleigh and from beyond the grave - Wheeler.

One in the house and the little one says move over, move over, so they all move over...

I'm keeping my eye on you

Wonderful Walter

Would Sir care for some black pudding?

Shortly after the photo was taking one of the younger pair swiped his black pudding - so Tom gave him another bit which he ate with gusto.

How much does Mortimer love a tissue box?
