Odette is learning how to chain stitch with a tambour hook. I was planning on learning this myself, but she decided she had more enthusiasm for the art and stole my supplies.

Me every morning when I open up this app to check the news. Happy Rat Meme Monday.
Brothers in thirst. (Leopold is convinced the water tastes better when his feet are in it.)
I'd call him a handful of sentient mashed potatoes, except he doesn't have any sentience.
Today brothers Hector and Diomedes crossed the bridge the way they came in: stinky, sleepy, and never apart for more than a minute. Three years I had these guys, and I am happy to have had the honor of spoiling and loving on them the entire time. This was our last cuddle before we left for the vet.
Oberon 's name when he's being a terrible little bastard is "Obe-Ronald Reagan", but I did not call him that when we were snuggling last night. I did call him that when he tried to stash smoked salmon in the couch cushions later.
Watching these 3 year-old fart-butts drinking water to make sure they don't fall asleep and accidentally drown themselves. We are at the days-not-weeks stage of hospice care, they're still enjoying treats and cuddles, but when that stops we will talk to the vet about The Big Nap.
Hector, age 3, finally letting me cuddle him. This would be a magical, transcendent moment in our rocky relationship if he didn't have dementia and a tendency to bite anything in front of his face when he wakes up, hence my index finger being held out of his face.
Rat Meme Monday movie night at my place, bring cheese.
Locked up for his crimes (tax fraud and identity theft).
A gift given (an oxtail bone) and a gift stolen (an oxtail bone).
Walking up to a straight couple to ask which one is Yogurt and which one is Beemis. (though you can always tell 🙄)
YOGURT IS USING BEEMIS AS A STEP-STOOL TO GET TO MY WATER
Chivalry isn't dead yet, rats.
MTA Rider Gives Up Seat To Pregnant Rat
Selkie likes to just sit next to me and make sustained eye contact.
In lieu of Rat Meme Monday we're doing Ham Meme Monday this week. Put your faith in Skateboard. Amen.
I'm doing introductions between Selkie and my new girls. They're going slowly, because Selkie insists on asserting her dominance with younguns who don't seem to understand what a rat social hierarchy is. What you see here are the airplane ears of a woman who is trying to create order and is Over It.
For Rat Meme Monday, here's what I look like when I'm talking about rats.
This giant handful of a man is a mere 5 1/2 months old.
Diomedes is two years and ten months old, and between getting extra treats and day-long snuggles he's taking full advantage of being a gross, crusty, stinky old man.
gale was the model for "this rat that stares at gay people" happy pride, y'all. he is still out there, staring at you from heaven
An inspirational Rat Meme Monday, go out and achieve something inconsequential.
