I have today off, and was able to witness what they do all day. It was a lot less exciting than I thought it would be.

Two girls--one of them is Zoe and I think the other is Arwen--curled up together in the nestball.

That hammock is hanging waaay low.

The camera flash alerts the Roo the Watchrat!

The other rats make their appearance. The dumbo hairless is Kanga, and if you look carefully you can see the little lump in her eye.

The hammock crew: From top to bottom they are Kanga, Nikko (I think), Ohana, and Roo's back.
Yes the action goes on at night, all night, loudly.... Rat Mom
We have to party sometime ~Rodentia
That's what daytime is for, resting. Rodentia again

We went through surgery and everything. I especially like your little rat hammock. I never knew there were hairless rats. I have cats, a bird and a hamster at this time, but I've also had guinea pigs. I take in the strays. I'm putting your blog in my favourites! Thanks for sharing. :)
