I Smelt a Rat
Isn't it adorable? I call it the Incoming Rodent. Not this specific one, but a smallish marsupial thing just like it. I came home from school a few weeks ago and Amanda had decided that her life was not complete, nay, would never be, until she could become the proud owner of one of these pseudo-flying critters. And so, with much ado and fuss our fate was sealed, and we pick up Tweak/Twitch over Thanksgiving break. I picked out the names--Alex's offering of "Zeus" was summarily rejected. I'm hoping she ends up acting like a Tweak.
See those little toes? I think there are six of them. Which is infinitely creepy, but righteously awesome. They actually make little nail clippers just for sugar gliders. I never would have guessed.
I think I'm almost as excited as Mandy.
Let's see if I'm as excited when it's been running around and squeaking for five nights straight.
But it's so cute.
