Brave Garbo.

I'm starting to think that Garbo is going to enjoy swimming and diving a lot.
we've played with water again and she really has no problem going in the bowl and getting all four paws and her face wet. in fact, she doesn't hesitate diving down in the bowl. no matter how much water I put in the bowl (I've increased the amount with every time we've practiced this), she'll dive in there.

Nixon doesn't really like getting her face wet. she'll go stand in the water, but very rarely, and most of the time she just hunches over the bowl and moves her arms in the water. it's really cute though. it's not that she's afraid of water, I think it's more that she doesn't think it's that much fun. she'll go to the bowl more frequently than Garbo, but she doesn't go all the way in the water like Garbo does.


I filmed the rats playing with water yesterday, and I've got lots of other clips too that I just haven't posted. it's just that posting a video on blogger takes forever, if it's coming from the computer. and I really don't want to upload any of my stuff onto youtube.


I've been meaning to go buy some rat food ever since we got home from our trip, but I've been too lazy. I feel bad for the rats, even though they've had enough food. now, however, they only have enough food for tonight and possibly tomorrow morning, so I really have to get my ass down to the pet store for some rat food! I'm debating whether we should continue feeding them the seed mix or if we should just switch back to pellets. we'll see. they don't even always have pellets, which is why they got the seed mix last time I bought food. so we'll see. at least they love the seed mix.

well, that's it for now. I bet my ratties will be swimming by the end of this summer :)
