My potential boys

[BabyGrl]

It is looking like these are the boys I am going to adopt.






They are about 3 months old. Now I need to think of some names. I am thinking somehting from Harry Potter. Any suggestions?

[DrkSilence13]

They're adorable! You could go with Harry and Ron. Sirius and Lupin. Sirius and James. or.....um.....some other combo of those names. I think the black berk/self (can't tell from the pics) should be Sirius. Just my opinion.

I have no name suggestions just a big AWWWWWWWWWWWWWW they are CUTE! Congrats!

I could do Sirius and James. Or maybe Dobby and Kreacher? My adoption application was approved so I will be getting them next week. I am really nervous since I have not had rats before but they are so darn cute. Plus i am having a grand old time making this cage for them.

I have always wanted a pair of rats but i have too many other pets that just dont make it safe for the rats or the guys i have. Will have to put that off for a few years. My friend has 10 rats, yup 10! They are awesome and oooo boy do I love the boys she has. They are so cute and give me kisses all the time. You will be fine! I am so excited for you!

[DrkSilence13]

CongRATS! . They're a lot of fun. I like Sirius and James more than Dobby and Kreacher. But that may be because I have this thing against Kreacher for what he did to Sirius. But that's beside the point. If you need any more info www.rmca.org is a good place to go (assuming you haven't already been there). They have a forum and everything. Everyone on there is VERY helpful! Good Luck!

My friend has 10 rats, yup 10!

That's nothing! I know a couple of people who have 50+ rats! All very well cared for might I add. On PRLC someone has 120 rats. She has an independent rescue though...but they all get individual care and attention. I want 10 rats...but I'm only allowed to have between 2 and 4.

I know but I really like Dobby though. Would it be stupid to name one Winky even though she was a girl?
I think I have been to every single rat site there is . i have been researching like crazy.

[kimberly78]

Holy cow 50+!! Thats insane, not to say if I could do that I wouldnt .

baby how is your cage coming along?

[kimberly78]

hummm i dont think what i said made sense - its been a long day - forgive me!

[DrkSilence13]

You could always just use miss matched names. Like Dobby and Sirius. Lol. It's something I would do. Happy naming...building.....and researching! Lol.

I have the doors off and I took out all the hardware that was on there for the drawers. I have the shelves set how I want them. Now I need to put some protection on the shelves, drill the holes for them to get from floor to floor, put the accessories in and build the door. I will post some pics when I am done. It is going to be pretty cool. It should be finished by Monday if not sooner.

i had a pair of hamsters named ding and ling years ago - not orginal but it is funny

[BabyGrl]

My friend had a bird named Porky dingles. Everytime she talks about it I crack up.
Ding and Ling is hilarious.

[DrkSilence13]

How's the cage coming? I'm excited for you. Lol. I want another baby rat...but I'm not allowed. I want a blue dumbo baby. They're so cute. Anyway.....How's everything coming?

[BabyGrl]

Well the boys will be here on Monday. The cage building is going well. I am almost finished and I will post the pics when it is done. I am really excited..

[DrkSilence13]

Oh...yay! I'm so excited for you! I can't wait to see pics of the cage!
