I'm a momma . . .

Our home has sometimes been called a zoo. . . sometimes due to the kids, but mostly due to the amount of animals in our home. The animals have decreased over the years, that's why I laugh when someones says, "You have all of that?" becuse we used to have much more.

Currently we have :

Boomer - a blue and gold Macaw
Caesar - an African Grey Parrot
Max - a Toy Fox terrier and Pomeranian mix
Cayenne - our hurricane dog - a Chow-Sheperd mix
Cotton & Setzer - what's left of our Cockatiel flock (a pearl and a pied)
Osborne (Ozzy) - a lovable cat who thinks he is a dog

This week we have added to the menagerie in our house once again. Meet our teeny-tiny rat babies. The girls are yet unnamed. I think we are calling one Freeway . . . the one who has a "center-line" down her back. I know, I know RATS! But they are so cute I couldn't let them become snake food ( which by the way we had one named Cleo at one point) and after much research found they are quite clean, smart and loveable.
