Hi there, and thanks to anyone who answered my previous plea for help.

I've now had Haku for 2 weeks. He gave us a gorgeous shed and a gunky urate and still refuses to feed. Maybe tonight? I'm tired of keeping this rat happy while waiting for the snake to get hungry. Our guy likes to sleep until 11pm or so, which makes me wonder when would be a good time to just handle him.

At any rate, I'm a 56 year old woman who lives with her husband and our remaining cat (my beloved furboy passed away last year) in Louisville, KY. We also have a neighborhood wanderer known as Not Our Cat (NOC for short) who comes in through the cat door to say hello, eat, and leaves. Both my husband and I have adult sons; hubby's son is married and we have a toddler grandson, my son is engaged, has Aspies, and is the reason I wound up with a BP.

Hobbies are cooking, knitting, reading, watching anime, being a Rebekah, esoteric spiritual practices, riding my motorcycle (once I recover from my 3rd spinal surgery), travel travel travel, and laughing at myself.

And to round this off: What's with the sig lines with the numbers preceding the types of critters? 0.1, 1.0, 2.0, etc. Is this binary code for the number of critters, their relative age, some secret herp communication?
