Well, we got our new baby last night. She's just a little bit smaller than Charlie, not by much. She seems really sweet; I have to admit that I'm a little nervous to hold her or handle her right now. I know she's in a new place, with new people and smells- it's probably a scary thing for a little creature like her. I know Charlie didn't enjoy it at first and it took a while to adapt. So, I'll be letting her acclimate to the new environment before I start to handle her. Arthur held her briefly, she didn't seem to mind at all. But I'm a bit of a chicken, since she's not exactly a baby anymore. I'm sure a good bite from her would hurt. I put an old t-shirt in her cage last night to sleep with and she just loved it. She was all snuggled in it when I awoke this morning; maybe that'll help her bond with me- having my scent in her cage. I'll keep everyone updated and let you know how she's doing. I sure hope she's not another Charlie, lol. And speaking of Charlie, he seems pretty interested in meeting her, as does the little girl. I bet they stayed up late last night chatting back and forth from their two cages.
BTW, I'm still trying to decide on a name. I've placed a poll on my sidebar, so please vote for your favorite one or two (you have the option to vote for more than one at a time). I think it's really in between Bunny and Phoebe, but I do like Tilly too. We'll see...

i think the name stinkbutt would be nice. either that or rosie. nah, stinkbutt all the way.
I like Phoebie! It kinda fits her.
Oh... she is so cute... we like the name Tilly. Callie said that it is more of a pretty girl name.
