9 weeks old | SHR Bachalor's Buttons "Buttons" Hobbit Names: Mara Bramble of Willowbottom Clucla Oldbuck of the Bree aka Buttons n' Bows Born: April 12,2004 Shown here 18 weeks old American Blue Irish Velveteen Dumbo Doe Buttons is the lightest color of the three Blue girls Personality: Buttons' personality falls somewhere in between her comical sister, Daisy, and her shy sister, Potta. I see Buttons as the conservative, responsible type. The one who has a sensible head on her shoulders in keeping her other two sisters out of trouble. Buttons is a very affectionate, outgoing girl. From running on a wheel, Buttons seems very aware that she has a tail. She doesn't carry it as in wheel tail, but she uses it in ways that I haven't seen a rat use it's tail before. Curling and uncurling it at will, wagging her tail, etc. Note the ridge down her back. It's the same as what Natty has, only Button's ridge is wider.

5 weeks old | SHR Shasta Daisy "Daisy" Hobbit Names: Berylla Bramble of Willowbottom Lulonna "Proudfoot" Thorny of Fair Downs aka Daisy Fresh Born: April 12.2004 Shown here 18 weeks old Russian Blue Veriberk w/Headspot Velveteen Dumbo Doe Daisy is the darkest color of the three Blue girls Personality: Daisy has already revealed her sense of humor and the comic side of her personality. While giving her scritches in the corner of the cage, she did a little popcorn and bumped her head on the spout of the water bottle. Daisy is a very outgoing, friendly girl, and continues to check my hands over and over again, for treats of course. From running on a wheel, Daisy seems very aware that she has a tail. She doesn't carry it as in wheel tail, but she uses it in ways that I haven't seen a rat use it's tail before. Curling and uncurling it at will, wagging her tail, etc RIP Daisy March 10,2006 Pituitary Tumor |
9 weeks old | SHR Potted Violets "Potter" Hobbit Names: Wisteria Bramble of Willowbottom Aludda "Proudneck" Pickthorn of Westmarch aka Potta Born: April 12,2004 Shown here 18 weeks old Russian Blue Blazed Veriberk Velveteen Dumbo Doe Potta is the medium color of the three Blue girls Personality: Potta is very shy and not at all sure about her new surroundings. The only time I've been able to pet her is when she is hiding her head in the blankets and only her bum is exposed, otherwise she runs to her hut to hide. She is an awfully sweet little girl and I'm sure time and patience will help her come out of her shell. You can see by her tail that Potta is wheelly nuts and she carries her tail in this way most of the time. Too funny RIP Potta November 06,2005 Uterine Tumor |
