Spooner Tails

By Uncle Hans

This is Fiona.  Renee had pet Rats, too,  when she was younger.  (I hope she did not have baboons or alligators, this is all getting a little strange, and it gets worse........) 

She sez once you get one by the tail, they make great pets, and only live a couple of years. well we bought Fiona from the pet store for $5 and got quite a bargain, as you can see..........

..........so, about two weeks after we got her, she started building a very elaborate nest.  And on Sunday morning she delivered 9 "pups".   This is Monday morning.  If you look close there is one pup underneath the pile and it looks a little dusky............

.......but it was all OK, because Fiona ate it and the other 8 are very healthy.  More rat stuff later.

I bet you can't wait!........
