Hello, Hello

Hello again to all my lovely followers! As much as I hate to say it, I got fairly busy once I started college (and even before classes, when I was visiting different campuses and taking placement tests and such) and I let my blogging fall behind. I was never the most regular blogger, of course, but I never meant for my absence to go on this long. And while I considered not coming back, the truth of the matter is, I miss blogging.

This is his look of disappointment, and it's all for me.
I miss sharing Buddy's shenanigans, I miss reading posts by other bloggers, I miss the whole atmosphere of it. So, I've decided to try and pick back up on blogging, and in celebration, I overhauled the entire color scheme of the blog and laid out a strict weekly writing schedule.

I'm excited to be back, and so is Buddy!

Actually, he's taking it in stride. We'll ignore that.

New Additions!

And soon to be many more!

Yesterday, I went to the petstore to pick up my first three female mice, brought them home, set them up in their cage, watched them play for awhile.. And lo and behold, one of them is pregnant! Though not immediately noticeable at the store, her baby bump is making itself very well known now, when she stretches as well as in pictures. Joy joy.

So for the time being, she has been separated from the other three girls and placed in a nursery tank until she either gives birth... or doesn't. It's hard to completely sure with such small creatures, but I'm confident enough to have separated her into her own tank.

Will keep you updated!

The preggers girl in question, Artemis.

Meet Milo!

Milo is my newest addition, a 3/4 mini rex 1/4 holland lop mix with a rex coat (and let me tell you, I love his rex coat, it's sooo soft to the touch.)

I got him at 8 weeks old, and he's now almost 10 weeks. He's doing amazingly well with litter box training, considering he's not neutered yet (he will be at six months) and eats, drinks, and plays like a champ. I was worried when I first brought him home, because he barely moved, but that's gone now and his personality has really started shining through. Needy and bossy, if you were wondering.

He had his first excursion from the cage today and he loved it! Racing around the room and investigating everything.
