As summer approches the consevatory that the rats are living in is getting quite hot in the day. I've found two ways to tackle this:
1. Open all doors and windows!
2. I bought a 'Chill-Chilla' - it's a granite slab that stays cool (generally for chinchillas) that they can lie down on.
I've opened out the entire room to them now, there's only some cardboard around some rather nice plants. It means they can run about on and under the sofa which they love!
Diamond has started to love exploring my mouth - it's a great party trick to show people...girl with rat's head inside her mouth! Horah!
April the 4th as World Rat Day! Check out the website - http://www.worldratday.com/
Oh and the site I'm working on is almost done. I'll put up a blog with the address when it's finished :)
Also there have been a few additions to the family - 3 giant african land snails that are still babies at the moment, which I aquired of a friend. For snails I must admit that they are absolutely amazing animals!
