Girls Just Wanna Have Fu-un, Oh, Girls Just Wanna Have Fun....
She isn't really 'too' naughty, though Maddie is a pregnant hoodlum--straight from feeder aquarium in pet store (sexed as male, but hum, nope!), so I rescued the adorable one.
Maddie likes to wrestle an entire paper towel roll like she is a dog, complete with yanking and back-n-forth head movement; really funny. (She jumps in a round basket I keep loaded with a few cleaning items like the paper towels, some baby wipes and such); I keep the basket on the rat room floor.
So I tore one paper towel off yesterday and before I could get in quarters for her, she took off with it toward her thick towel burrow, stepping on it, lopsided gait, having to get off it and so on, before abandoning it when I called, "Maddie?" and held out a quarter torn one. She immediately ran toward me and ripped it out of my hands. She is quiet feisty--her personality, even though so far along pregnant, she has slowed down with her acrobatic antics, way slowed down... but when the pups are born, weaned, and she is back to normal, look out paper world, here she comes... that, and tug-o-war on a thick knotted rope: Maddie may be part toy dog, pick a breed?
