No, I don't have a thermometer right now because my ex took it when he gave the other BP we had to his friend before he left. I basically don't have anything for Penny anymore and have to start from scratch.

Please don't worry about that. I'm not one of those people who never mess with my BP. I take Penny out nearly every day and handle her and show her affection (and get affection in return! ) and ALWAYS peek in on her every few hours or so to make sure she's not doing anything strange and that she's warm and comfortable.

I WILL be getting her thermometers and things like that so she stays happy and healthy. She was thrust upon us rather suddenly, but once she was in my life I couldn't just let her go. I'm fully confident that I can give her a wonderful home and keep her around for a very long time. She's family now, and everyone at home loves her and has complete faith in me to take care of her.
