And now, some degus…

June 7, 2005 Life

We interrupt this weblog’s regular programming to bring you a photo of my two degus (still unnamed):

On Monday, I will have had the degus for 1 month already. So far I’ve been able to train them to take CheeriosTM from my hand, allow me to pet them, and even let me pick them up (sparingly). Plus, they make all sorts of cute noises, including what I started referring to as the “Pikachu squeak.”

ATTENTION: If you have any *interesting* names (read: no lame “Laverne and Shirley” suggestions) for the two Pikachu wannabees, then let me know in the comments. You never know, I just may use your suggestion!

    Well, those are definitely interesting names, even if they don’t make sense. “Dinner”? Sounds like you were hungry when you made that suggestion…
