Thank you for the compliments! Unfortunately I can't take credit for the nails, she works too hard to keep them pretty. It just wouldn't feel right lol

Today is feeding day, pretty nervous and hoping that he eats! I know it's no biggie if he doesn't but I'll just feel a lot better about him being comfortable enough to eat :please:

Any advice? I feel like I've got one shot to make it right.

Lol thanks!

He did it! Lol it took him long enough, I was dangling that bugger for what seemed like 5 minutes until he started to look interested. He got real close and then BAM! Quick little guy he Is! I waited for the mouse to die and then shut the tub because I didn't want to bug him. Then waited a minute or two and opened it back up and he had just the feet and tail hanging from his mouth and I watched him finish it. Awesome!
