Pixels new friend

[RATTIE]

After sadly losing Molly on the 8th of January, thankfully to old age so it was peaceful and she was in my arms when she went, Pixel was left on her own.
I had searched all the local rescues for a friend for her but there was no-one, which is good I suppose.
We resorted to having to get her a friend from the garden centre who was also alone as she was so depressed.
It's worked out well though and now they both have company and a big cage to play in.
So here she is, introducing Summer:

I'm not the best with varieties but I'm pretty sure she's a champagne self.
Either way she's beautiful. :nod:
I forgot just how mad and pingy young girls are though. :lol:
She's great though and Pixel has picked up so much already.
I'm sure they'll have loads of fun together. :wub:

Aww Summer is soo sweet rattie I'm sure you will have loads of fun with her!

 

[RATTIE]

Aww Summer is soo sweet rattie I'm sure you will have loads of fun with her!

Thank you.
I think she's gonna be full of mischief as she was trying to figure out how to escape from her cage when they were still in two separate cages while I was doing their intros. :shifteyes:
I'm glad they're both in the big cage now for that reason too as it was only a matter of time before she succeeded.
She wont get out of the big cage, little minx that she is.

She's really cute. I love the name too.

 

[Cait]

Where'd the name come from? She's adorable. :]

 

[RATTIE]

Thank you everyone. :cute:
We went through absolutely loads of names for her then Summer popped into my head.
She's just so bright and bouncy and will brighten up Pixels mood in no time.

She is SUCH a heavy sleeper, I haven't seen anything like it before.
She scared the life out of us last night.
Pixel was washing her face but she wasn't moving.
I shook her and still nothing.
I ended up shaking her quite vigorously while she was still lying on the cheese wedge bed and she FINALLY woke up with a start.
I was terrified!
Little monster. :wub:

I didn't know about Molly. It's good that Pixel got a new BRFF. May the two scaly-tailies brighten your days for a long time to come.

 

[Nixola]

Aw she's really cute.

Hope you have hours of fun together.

GOOD NEWS!

1) They're definitely friends.
2) Summer has learned to go pea fishing!
(Think Pixel eventually showed her when I left the room for a minute, but she's better at it than Pixel who does more of a pea bobbing thing bless her. :lol:
Poor little soggy nose! :wub: )
3) I HAVE MY FIRST VIBRATING RATTIE!!! :lol: :lol:
I have heard of girls vibrating their ears when they're in heat, every 5 days none the less, but I have never before seen it.
I was laughing my head off! :lol:
It's cool but really funny.
I'll try and get a video clip as soon as I can.
