For names...Pumpkin like Robin said, Peanut for the other brownish baby and Dusty for the little gray one??? Just some ideas. The babies sure are adorable and I'm loving watching them grow up. The video of the babies has been played over and over again at my house because they are so cute.

God bless pinky pup number four. May you grow and become the best little gerbil at the rainbow bridge. No matter how young or tiny the babies, it always brings tears to my eyes.

Congratulations Grandma Diane! They are so cute. I am so excited to see future pictures. Thank you for sharing their growth process with us. I personally have never seen that before.

Looks like affordable insurance but it looks like they only cover cats and dogs.

We couldn't resist him. We had a beagle a couple years ago put to sleep because he had an inoperable tumor in his throat that was going to eventually suffocate him (memorial page under Cody). I don't really mind the barking myself as much as I am concerned with how the birds and hammies are handling it. I do know if birds get too stressed out they will start feather plucking among many other things. The hammies don't seem to be phased by all the noise. He is learning that its not nessesary to bark at every little pin drop or to not bark a long time after the noise has been made. He's a good boy.

Thank you Robin. So far it seems as if both girls are doing fine. We made both aquariums look identical so the one that was removed feels like she is in the same home...almost. The food dish is different along with the water bottle and her wheel is a different color but it does'nt seem to bother her. I have both aquariums butted up against each other so they won't feel alone.

This is Charlie our new puppy! ;D He is nine months old. He is a beagle pit mix. We adopted him on the 16th from the Humane Society here in Pittsburgh. They told us he had a bunch of behavior issues but we found out that he has none. Except extensive barking. But thats the Beagle in him! We bought a vibrateing(no shock) collar for him because we have to get some of his barking under controll. He will wear this no bark collar only at night so he stops waking the house up. The birds and the hammies have adjusted to him except for the barking. Thats wearing on all of us! But everything we expected him to do from the paperwork they gave us, he is a wonderful addition to the family! With a tiny bit of work and ALOT of Patience everything will be smooth sailing.

I am very sad today. Last night my Robo girls had to be separated. For about a week they have been sparring and I would break it up but last night was different. When I reached in the cage to break them up they didn't know I was there until I would grab one. The second I would let go they would go right back to fighting. Very intense. The picture that I posted that started this thread I called my inseparable girls, and they were til now. I am very sad for them and I hope they will be alright without each other. I have their cages butted together so they can atleast look at each other. Bummed out!

We watched the show both days and really enjoyed it. All the pics are wonderful. I liked the little Pug at the Best in Show round. She made me think of a little caterpillar. I'm bummed out. No beagle pics? You are a great photographer.

Those Ovo cages are a true pain in the bum. A small aquarium would be ideal for both of you. My two Robo girls share a 10 gallon fish tank with a mesh top and they love it. Half the time I can't find them because of their little burrowing system they have. They tunnel in the Carefresh bedding. The lazy bums even have a tunnel going from their hut to the water bottle spout. I continuously move the bedding around so it doesn't touch the spout or it will drain the water out. Please give Frasier and Ping my love. Glad everyone is doing good.

Congratulations to the Green Bay Packers on their superbowl win. It was an exciting game with Pittsburgh nipping at Green Bays heels, but with 4 turnovers and a few calls dismissed against GB the Steelers came close but didn't pull through. Good game though. The halftime show.....P.U. The commercials were cute, but we have all seen better.A couple car commercials were cute like the one with the kid dressed up as Darth Vader, and I liked the Volkswagon Beetle one alot. Doritos and Pepsi One also did cute spots. Christina Aguilara messing up the National Anthem was terrible. That is one song that all Americans should know by heart and she has been in the business too long to let nerves play a role. It was a fun and exciting night and I am disappointed that the Steelers didn't win but I'm happy for Green Bay. And congrats to the Steelers for making it to another Superbowl. Six rings is nothing to sneeze at.

Saw that one during the game. It should make people think twice about being careless and hitting an animal.
