Grrrr

We now have become a family of 9 thanks 2 people who wana give away unwanted pets & advertise them 4 all 2 c (I no, I sound like Im whining. Well thats coz I am!!) Having a nice arvo relaxing & reading the Saturday paper with Andrew & I see this ad. Dummy me say to myself 'Oh no!!' & Andrew hears me. Hes deaf in 1 ear & usually u have 2 talk loud 4 him 2 hear but this time hes like 'watcha looking at'. 'Nothing' I say, while trying 2 scrunch the page up. Unfortunately he nos me 2 well & once he realises Im browsing thru the pet section grabs it off me. 'GIVEAWAY 15mth old pet RAT' & all was lost. LJ had told his dad he wanted a rat so strait on the phone he went & now we have a rat. OK hes cute, been trained well, doesnt bite but still.... When I met Andrew back in '94 he had a pet rat named Onyx & before that my best friend in school, Shanley, had some, 1 4 a short while (a sad story) so I dont have anything against them. Just didnt want another pet, especially when we have a 9kg cat roaming the house! Liam has named him Splinter
