The Hyoutei boys are all changing color as their undercoats grow in, some of them overnight! They're getting big and stuff. Have a duck some pictures.


Atobe's box Get off the Stage!
Atobe's box

This might be the cutest picture I have ever taken. All four rats are, against all logic, in the tissue box.
Get off the Stage!

Hee, tail hook! Ohtori says no.
Clean Tails Buzzuh?
Clean Tails

The boys had their first bath today, and took it reasonably well. Look at those pink little tails!
Buzzuh?

From early in the week, when Shishido hadn't started changing color yet. He's never chilling out with the other rats, what's up with that?
Siamese Seal Points Shishido's Silvering
Siamese Seal Points

All four rats have been changing color as their undercoats grew in. Turns out I don't have beige berks, I have Siamese Seal Points! their beige fur all lightened to cream, and their noses and butts are coffee-colored.
Shishido's Silvering

Shishido's undercoat is growing in silver or maybe blue, it's hard to tell. But he's got silver hairs sprinkled all over him now.
Mmm, Froot Loops Damp, Grumpy Boys
Mmm, Froot Loops

I placated the boys with some Froot Loops. Usually there is piteous meeping during baths, but all four boys took it stoically. They must have had baths as teensy kittens from the woman i got them from.
Damp, Grumpy Boys

That doesn't mean they were overtly pleased by the process, though. That's Jiroh, by the way. He and Ohtori have different sized light strips across their foreheads, so now I can tell them apart for sure.

My brain has been overcome by the cuteness.

I've been thinking of getting either mice or rats for a while now, but I've never had any before, so I'm a bit nervous. Still, yours look like sweeties.

go for rats. Mice smell something fierce and aren't too interested in you. The real attraction of rats is that they really like being your pet!

I love your darling rats!

I am waiting for [livejournal.com profile] eternaleponine to send me more skaterboy logs so I can give you more goodies. Meanwhile I have other boyfluff that I thought was lost... different characters. Let me know if you want.

Oh man, that second picture is the cutest thing ever. Atobe's got this look like he just got busted and Ohtori's all "you're not going anywhere, Froot Loop thief!"

So glad they took the baths well. Mine are still so pitiful and scratchy. Look at the cute gray noses! I'm surprised the tails are so long already.

i was totally expecting the sad, pained "MEEEEP"s, but they just sort of huffed at me. Such good boys.

I think if the tails and the size of the Siameses are any indication, I'm going to have some sizable rats here. bwee!
