A New Addition

Tomorrow Allison and I are getting a playmate for Pacino. We have been researching introducing a new friend to Pacino shortly after Guster passed away, because we want him to have a friend while we are away during the day. We have finally decided now is a good time to do so, amongst the exams, hustle and bustle of Jody and Erik moving, and figuring out where we are going to live as well. If any of you watch Hoarders the TV show you may have already seen the parents of the rat we will be adopting. All the rats on the show were rounded up (all 2500) and moved up to Andy's Pet Shop here in San Jose. We have gone into the store a couple of times and each time more and more rats have been adopted, this last time we found a little guy who became very social with us and ran to us every time we came near, so we put him on hold for us to pick him up tomorrow. We are leaning toward the name Baxter for him, but suggestions are welcome. I didn't know how to do hyperlinks(? - if that's what it is called) so here are some links to learn more about the rats and the pet store.
