I told you about the nails! They hate it!
Thanks for the pictures. They make me feel better knowing they are ok. |
Yeah, I hated for them to have to spend such a long ride in that pet carrier so I threw the cage together and had them in it within about 20 minutes of getting home.
Rainbow's nails needed a trim the worst, and she was *fairly* cooperative (more so with the front ones than the back). Chelsea's nails weren't too bad at all, but I figured I might as well go ahead and trim them up while I was at it... she wasn't so easy to deal with, though!
She squirmed and tried to bite me and had a fit... it was so funny, because I put a towel over the hand I was holding her with to keep her from nibbling on my fingers, but she was determined. So I maneuvered one of the cuddle cups around her to better protect my fingers, and she was knawing the heck out of it. She was trying to rip it to shreds the way my dog chews up stuffed animals (and paper plates, and shoes, and books, and pretty much anything else she can get to... hahahha). But I was more determined than her, and the nails got trimmed.
They've pretty much been hiding out in one of the hidey houses together since I got them home; they're still nervous from all the commotion of moving. I gave them veggies but they were too skiddish to eat at first, so I turned the lights off and sat real still... and out they came to devour it all: lettuce, green/yellow peppers, kale, baby carrots, grapes, and parsley. They've retreated back to the hidey for now, but every once in awhile Rainbow will venture out to look around... and of course, after a second, Chelsea tags along.
I love them already!
