Mouse Memory

While looking through my pictures, I found a couple pictures of some baby mice I had just last year. Here are some pitures of them.

Here is a picture of one of the Mice. I named him Smalls because he was half the size of the one below.
Here is the Sister, which a friend of mine wanted to name Jeff... NO. Her name was Cash. but I called her Chub for awhile. Her name was Cash because when we tried to get her a Vet Appointment they said it would cost two-hundred dollars to bring her in. We had to refuse; two-hundred dollars for a baby mouse that was barely an inc long?! We wanted to get her tail checked out, as it seemed to be drying out badly. (See section of tail on my pinky finger.) They died weeks apart, Smalls, and then Cash three weeks later when she was ready for semi-solid foods. I can honestly say, I thought Cash was going to make it. But, as Nature decided, she was no longer with me... I was able to play with her, she ran around, hardly needed her formula, and she was grooming herself! (Which was a surprise, I never could get her completely clean with a Q-tip. : ) They sure were doing well. But, I can't let then keep me back because I know somthing else will come along, and I don't want to be distracted when that day comes!
