this was Lacey's 1/2 brother, Tipper and this was his "obsession" for about 1 yr....his 1st one was a ferret we owned...they would play for hrs....but, this is Babeese, a Dumbo rat that belonged to a gal that lived here for a bit...

playing on the stairs....

keeping watch at the cage....

and, sadly, the last day for Babeese....he just filled up w/ "fluids" one night and there wasn't anything to be done for him....at the vets saying goodbye (Babeese was calm as long as he could see Tipper)

a couple more...

and this was Tipper when we got home....standing by where Babeese's cage had been....

ya know, i kept from crying at the vets until Tipper nuzzled him and then looked at me like "Bring him back, Mom...I know you can!" then i lost it....

and i found one of Tipper w/ Terre Ferret....

anyone else got any "best buddy" pics of different species?

 

[tirluc]

Aw, Tipper and the rat are so cute. I wish I had some pictures of Bentley and the gerbils, but he's terrified of the camera. I bring them out to play in the tub and he loves to stand watch over them or lay in the tub with them and let them crawl all over him.
