Oh, I'm very sorry to hear that.

Gah, that's poo.

I like having fish, you get less attached to fish.

Sorry to hear that dude, one of your ratties?

Dimrill · **Posted:** Tue Dec 16, 2008 13:28

Yeah, he'd been ill but had got a bit better. I knew it was just a matter of time with him being so old, so I was prepared really. It's his brother that's going to suffer most, he's on his own now.

My little lad Cosmo died in the night

So gutted for you, chap. Having lost Amy last month, I know how heartbreaking it is to lose a beloved pet.

At least he's not in pain anymore, though.

kalmar · **Posted:** Tue Dec 16, 2008 13:31

With rats, can you introduce a new one to keep the other one company? Or are they too intelligent and territorial for that?

Dimrill · **Posted:** Tue Dec 16, 2008 13:33

Male ones tend to fight unless they're brought up together. I'm just putting some little cuddly toys in his cage for him to snuggle up to.

Does anyone have any idea where one can obtain emperors in the UK?

I know my mate had one many moons ago but I've tried loads of pet shops with zero luck

Huge condoloncies Dimmers, I know how upset I'd be if one of my little girls died.

Just phoning the vets to organise a cremation for Cosmo. Man this sucks.

Sorry to hear that dude. Taking George grumpy cat to the vets to be cremated turned me into a blubbing wreck for the rest of the day.

Goddess Jasmine · **Posted:** Tue Dec 16, 2008 18:32

Really sorry to hear about this Dimmers.

Ange · **Posted:** Wed Dec 17, 2008 23:37

Oh Dimrill, I'm so sorry to hear about your rattie

Hugs n stuff

Spoiler tags to hide pictures for the arachnophobes amongst us:

Smithy, the baby of the two, has recently been fed with two large crickets and as a result I've temporarily renamed him J-Lo:

ZOMG Spoiler! Click here to view!

Meanwhile, Rosie - the adult - is settling in rather nicely, although she refuses to use her flowerpot to hide in. She is also ridiculously aggressive still, I've only got to tap my pipette on the ground behind her and she leaps at it - the Chilean Rose is supposed to be a very, very docile species (they're affectionately known as "pet rocks" in the hobby) so I don't know whether there's something she's not quite sure about with regard to her new home. Here she is, with a (half buried) 1p coin for scale:

ZOMG Spoiler! Click here to view!

She also wanted to wish everyone on BETEO a happy Christmas:

It was really difficult trying to get our sled dog, to come in from the snow this morning... the big fluffy numpty!!

JohnCoffey · **Posted:** Mon Jan 05, 2009 17:02

That must be it then. Maybe all female cats are whores? :DD

Goddess Jasmine · **Posted:** Mon Jan 05, 2009 20:40

I had one on my bed all night last night. Just for the record, I don't actually own a cat.

Cras · **Joined:** 30th Mar, 2008 **Posts:** 49233

Er - so you had a whore on your bed all night?

Was she dead?

Goddess Jasmine · **Posted:** Mon Jan 05, 2009 21:35

Not when I started.

Shin · **Posted:** Tue Jan 06, 2009 1:29

GENUINE LOLS! :DD

Joans was right! You are a killer (see Joans for explanation)

myp · **Posted:** Tue Jan 06, 2009 22:05

ERMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM...

I must be going mad, because the last time I looked, we only had two guinea pigs.

Dimrill · **Posted:** Tue Jan 06, 2009 22:06

No way! HAHAH!

kalmar · **Posted:** Tue Jan 06, 2009 22:09

Woah, muineapig!

Dimrill · **Posted:** Tue Jan 06, 2009 22:11

So Nibbler has something of a surprise under that cape after all :DD

Baby has to be called Kif. I've started calling ours The Zoidbergs due to the singing when I'm rustling plastic bags in the kitchen.

myp · **Posted:** Tue Jan 06, 2009 22:13

Ange joked that Nibbler was pregnant yesterday, as she'd got so fat. It must be one of the guinea pigs from the pet shop that did it, as the gestation period is 60-72 days.

I'm gobsmacked.

Joans · **Joined:** 31st Mar, 2008 **Posts:** 8648

Doesn't this mean they're all going to disappear?

Kern · **Posted:** Tue Jan 06, 2009 22:14

Awww....

As it's a BeeX baby, of sorts, we need a naming poll.

Goddess Jasmine · **Posted:** Tue Jan 06, 2009 22:15

Congratualtions!

Grampa myp...

Dimrill · **Posted:** Tue Jan 06, 2009 22:16

Here's hoping Kif's a girl so you can keep them together.

myp · **Posted:** Tue Jan 06, 2009 22:18

We've just inspected the proud mother - I don't think she's done yet.

Dimrill · **Posted:** Tue Jan 06, 2009 22:19

You do realise that Helen's probably already scampering towards Nottingham to have a good ole cuddle of the little one.

myp · **Posted:** Tue Jan 06, 2009 22:19

Have you got boys or girls?

Dimrill · **Posted:** Tue Jan 06, 2009 22:20

2 girls.

myp · **Posted:** Tue Jan 06, 2009 22:22

Arse, I was going to say if you had boys and we had any boys, you could have them.

Dimrill · **Posted:** Tue Jan 06, 2009 22:24

Actually, just realised I haven't posted photies of them yet.
