Rat talk.

I've never really known what boggling means.
I've heard that rats boggle and brux.
our rats brux quite a lot. usually when they're going for a nap and when I'm rubbing their ears. Nixon often bruxes when she's just running around on the floor in the bedroom (I'm hoping it's because she's happy - not because she's frustrated or scared. although she runs around like a happy rat so I'm sure it's the good kind of bruxing)

but boggling.
I didn't even know what it was until the other day when I was giving Garbo a good ear rubbing as she was about to fall asleep in their little nap cup.
she was bruxing and then she started doing weird things with her face.
it looked like she was bulging her eyes back and forth and vibrating her whiskers.
I knew immediately that this is a rat who's enjoying the pre-nap ear rub :)
