Poppy here! Santa left us a Christmas pud! It's just the right size to have a nap in, or a quick clean... And Millie can even climb up on top of it and punch the decorations on the Christmas tree. I'm a bit under the weather (I miss Tallulah and it's making me feel sad), so dad had to pick me up to have a look at the glass danglies. I couldn't punch one out of the tree, but I did give it my best shot.
Every year, mom and dad come to Lille at Christmas, and we ratties come too, of course! Millie thought it would be a good idea to find out more about Lille, so she had a good read of the guide book. I never knew she could read French, but she's a rattie of many talents so I shouldn't have been surprised.
Poppy here. When Tallulah went to rat cabin, I was so upset that I tried to pull my fur out by scratching my tum and other bits. Mom and dad tried to give me cuddles, but I ran away. I didn't eat my dinner or drink my milk. I didn't even sniff my cheese nibbles. Yesterday, mom and dad had a meeting and did lots of talking, then they went out for an hour. I was frightened while they were gone and did some more scratching. But when they got home they weren't alone. They brought a little girl with them. Her name is Millie and dad says she needs a big sister like me to keep her safe. I have been put on 'Millie Watch'. I have to groom her and show her the best nibbles, keep her warm and make sure she has plenty to drink. It's a full-time job... She never stops jumping about, usually on my head. Tallulah was a wonderful big sister to me, the best a girl could wish for, and I want to do her proud by being the best big sister I can be to little Millie.
This is a blog about rats. And sometimes about their humans, who are really just big, funny-looking, bald rats. And sometimes about peas.
