Well we have the class pet for the weekend

[kejoda]

He is a Gerbil name Rocky. Friendly and cute but doesn't like to play too much. Lets hope he doesn't die on us.

Just make sure the cage is SECURELY latched.

 

[shep]

keep the cat OUTSIDE!!

 

[kejoda]

We don't have a cat.

 

[shep]

You should be good to go then...

 

[kejoda]

With John and Danny here!?!?! I don't think so.

 

[helenabear]

WE get ours for Thanksgiving . Thought I would let the kids enjoy the extra time. It's a 5 day weekend. They ar e bugging me for a pet (our dog died last year). Unfortunatley, I have just gone back to work, and don't need something(one) else to take care of!!

Good luck, LOL

Two years ago, my dd brought home 2 baby chicks from her hs biology class.

OMG , that was a Longggg weekend! They were so loud, messy, and they didn't like their little house! They wanted out all the time.

Herc.

My DS got to take home his class hamsters, Harry and Ginger, in first grade for the Holidays. His sweet little sister who was around 2 hugged Harry a little too hard and well, he went to Hamster Heaven around 3 hours later. This happened two days before Christmas break was over!!! The next day, DH and DS went to tons of pet stores looking for another male hamster that looked like Harry (we called his teacher the day he passed away). We found one with a little shorter hair.

When DS brought the hamsters in on Monday, one of the kids said, "Matt, why did you cut Harry's hair?" Well, the teacher and the kids had a little talk about the frailty of life right away!!!!

Never again will we babysit class pets!!!!!

I'm so glad my kids don't have class pets. With our luck, something would happen to it.

Have fun with Rocky, Beccy.

Dropping in to say a prayer that Rocky survives his weekend at the Kejoda house.

 

[catsrule]

Simba said he wants to come and visit you this weekend, kejoda.

 

[JohnTBap]

Oh boy, that sounds like FUN!

Did I ever tell you about the time that I had a gerbil and its tail came off???

 

[catsrule]

no. should rocky be afraid?

 

[JohnTBap]

Only if he tries to run away after escaping and I am around......

 

[catsrule]

 

[JohnTBap]

Ohhhhhh yeah. Major EW!

 

[kejoda]

ok I so didn't need to that!

He did bite me earlier. that was mean. It did help John to lose interest in him though so I guess it was worth it.

Hope all is still going well!! Have fun!
