Rat Break

IMGP3066

Things are still pretty hectic around here - but not too hectic to grab a couple of minutes of rat time!  He was acting so silly yesterday that I grabbed the camera and snapped a few shots.

Our new couch has the Small Furry Person stamp of approval.  He likes running along the back of the couch, and jumping from the couch to the bookshelf, and trying to jump back to his cage... basically, he just likes everything about being out.  He barely sits still.

Which reminds me that I really need to get a macro lens for my DSLR.  Mac actually likes the camera now, and sticks his nose in the lens at every opportunity.  Unfortunately it can't autofocus fast enough at that short of a distance, so I end up with blurry rat-nose shots.  Sharp rat-nose shots would be much cuter, I'm sure!

I miss having rats. They are such wonderful little creatures. After my last rat died I couldn't bring myself to adopt another one. It is too painful to lose a friend after only a couple years.
