Boston has become a lot more active now that he's lost some weight and on a good diet. One time I even caught him hanging from the cage bars. He explores more and every now and then he would popcorn around too. He's definitely a much different rat than the dirty, overweight PEW that came in to the rescue a couple of months ago. Monkey is still a little fireball he has always been. I've been wanting to put up pictures to show what he's called "Monkey". He's so full of energy I'm jealous. Maybe I should start eating lab blocks too?
Even though they have occasional scuffles (mostly involving Boston stealing food out of Monkey's mouth), these two can be seen cuddling up every now and then. Just earlier today I saw Monkey using Boston as a pillow, a very fluffy and white pillow, lol. He looked comfy alright.Both have been known to sleep on their backs, scaring the hell out of me the first few times I saw them. I can never get a good picture of them doing that because they would wake up at the slightest hint of attention, especially Monkey. He never seems to have enough attention or playtime.
Some pics from their playtime:
