New friend! (take 2) for Timmehhh!!!


So, now I have lonely sucky poo timmy. *sigh* yes rodentz, he's getting a friend, i've put my foot down on what has appeared to be (one thinking out) some selfishness otherwise suited to hamsters. I've emailed a dude whom has two girls, but was given a boy as a gift. He's dropping the baby boy off here tomorrow!! He says he's still young wobbly and shy, but loves to be on shoulders. I say great, him and timmy can be shy of each other lol. They'll be great. Timmy's still only 9 weeks now, so tiny. So yeah...hopefully this friend attempt doesn't end soon

yay for the new little boy!! something you can try is this site:

BabyNames.com: Names beginning with A

You can click on the different letters and pick "Boys" names only. This is where I've gotten about 90% of my names from . Or they give me ideas It's pretty fun. Then when you click on the name you can find out what it means and how many people have that name and stuff Really fun .

I've always been of the opinion that you can't name the little dudes until you meet them!

Is he a clown? Ernie, Huckleberry
Is he a serious fellow? Nigel, Augustus
Is he a real sweetheart? Barney, Joey

You get the idea. Wait till you figure him out, then when you think of the right name, you'll just know it. Let us know!

I agree!!!!

I wait till I get the little guys before naming them,because that way I can find that perfect name.Does the little man have a name already??? I mean from his old owners?? Because sometimes when I get a rat,if he is already named,I will leave his name...if it is good and all!

I agree. Although I always do go into the pet store with some names in mind.
Good luck with your new rat! I hope everything works out.
