Today Atlas turns a year old. I want to thank Alli for the gorgeous fleece stuff she made for me to celebrate this occasion. He got a piece of a chinnie cookie and lots of applewood, and as you can see in the picture of him in the tube he definitely enjoys his presents. I love you my little boy...

Hey guys, haven't posted on here in forever because I've been busy with a new job, but I have a question for those of you who have hamsters. I rescued one from a kid who was bored with it and wanted to feed it to the outside cats here (yeah, can you believe that?) Anyways, I named him Dexter...

Ok, so I got Sasha spayed Monday, and brought her home yesterday morning. Her uterus was a little longer than normal so her incision was a little longer according to the vet. It's about 2- 2.5 inches long and has 4 stitches. It was nice and clean and she was fine. Well around 11 last night she...

I found a FN 142 for $75 on Craigslist that's in great shape. Just needs new pans but i'd get metal Bass ones anyway. Just had a few questions. My babies are all 400 grams now. Are they still too small for the bigger bars on the FN? I was going to put Ninja in one half and the girls on the other...

My father isn't doing so well, and they live out of town, so I was just wondering if anyone in the Dallas area would do chin-sitting, or if they have anyone specific they use? I would prefer to keep them at home instead of boarding them at the vet or somewhere. There's nothing set yet, but I...

First up is Atlas. I finally got one of his scritchie face and I just love it. He still has his moody teenager moments but I think he's mellowed out a bit more than he was a couple of months ago. I also love when he sticks his face through the bars begging for more wood. He LOVES applewood.

I brought my little girls home a few days ago, was letting them get settled in before I whipped out the camera. So far they are doing very well, Peanut is the brave one, little Pixie follows her example. I love seeing them cuddle together. They like to sit on top of their fleece tube as opposed...

Atlas wanted to thank me for refilling his hay holder since he was going to beat me up for it not being full to his standards. And a picture of him in his tube because he's a cute sleepy chin.

I cleaned Ninja's cage today, and he wasn't too pleased about waiting in his carrier while I did so. Then he lived up to his name as he stealthily investigated his cage afterwards, and then drank water in his favorite position. He fits right in with my other crazy guys. He's so darn cute lol.

So, I've been up to OK a couple of times to visit with Claudia of Brightstar chins, which has been immensely informative and helpful. The most chins in a room I had ever seen was 8 so it was quite different to see 60. She has such gorgeous animals, and yesterday I came home with one, a little...

My little boy turned 6 months old today, and we celebrated by giving him his first rosehip, some applewood sticks (which he loves), and a dustbath, which he really loves. I can't believe he's 6 months old already. I remember getting him from Amanda and him biting and pulling at the cage bars for...

Hi guys, I'm getting 3 chins in the next few weeks from Claudia at Brightstar Chins. I have one baby safe cage that Atlas is in and I have ordered an FN 141 to move him into to have that one available that hopefully will be here in the next week or so. It's one male and 2 females. The 2...

I got some adorable fleece items from Shahna's daughter Amber and of course Atlas loves to sleep on top of his hidey house as opposed to in it. Silly boy. He really does enjoy it though. I love how cute they look when they're sleeping :) ETA: Of course after I uploaded this pic I turn around...

Whipped the camera out yet again and took some pictures of my babies. The first up is Jemma. She didn't like the camera too much, hence the deer caught in headlights look, although she did stretch out for me like the cute diva she is.

Yesterday I was cleaning cages and let Atlas out for some playtime, which he loved. That first picture is the only decent one I could get of him since he was darting all over the place. My little boy isn't so little anymore. He will be 5 months this month and weighs 565grams. The next pictures...

Jemma was asleep in her tube as usual, but usually she lays with her face sticking out of one end and her tail out the other. But not this time! I snapped as many as I could before she gave me the evil eye and went back to her usual sleeping position. Crazy girl. She has some Blu Kote on her...

Monday afternoon I was heading out to my car to get my ipod when I hear this long squeaky meow. Looking around, I notice in the bushes near my car a tiiiiny tortie kitten. She was dirty and skinny and her tummy was swollen. I picked her up and took her to the shelter. I noticed her nose was...

Since I took some pictures of Zim for the other thread I of course had to take some of Atlas and Jemma while I was at it. Jemma was asleep in her hidey house and was none too pleased. Atlas is getting so big! He turned 4 months old today. Weighs 503grams.

Hi guys, some of you I spoke with in chat last night about what happened to Zim. Last night around 6pm my husband texted me saying something happened with Zim. He said he heard a loud bang coming from his cage and when he turned and looked at him he saw Zim lying on the floor like he had fallen...

Here are some pictures of Jemma's current cage setup, she absolutely LOVES fleece. At first she seemed a bit skeptical and wanted to investigate everything, but now she is loving it. She spends most of her time between the tube and the cuddle ledge but she's been everywhere. And she definitely...
