Rat Story Continued

It was around lunch time when Emily came upstairs to play with me and Reba. I was so relieved that she didn't try to put me in that terrible purple ball that Reba loves so much! She pulled me out of the tank slowly, and I scrambled up her arm onto her shoulder. She walked over to her bed and sat down. The descent was like a carnival ride, the ones that drop and your stomach flips.
Thump! Reba was running into stuff while she was in her ball. It always scares me when she does that. Emily will laugh but what she doesn't know is that Reba does that kind of stuff to scare me. She thinks it's funny.
"Reba!" I called from my perch, "Did you find anything that might help?"
"Well, I noticed that they left crochet hooks on the floor but I can't think of how this is gonna help." she replied from below on the far side of the room. It's not that we hate our moms, it's just that we are terrified of those wretched cats! Not so much Slinky who always hid under a bed. They act so cute in front of the family and get loved on but what the family doesn't know is that they've been sneaking out of the house through Emily's sister's window and getting together with all those nasty neighbor cats. I overheard Pushy and Slinky talking about taking over this part of the neighborhood, but they had to get all the cats in the other parts of town to help. Me and Reba weren't about to let that happen. Every time we got taken out of our cozy tank I would distract Emily, who was usually the one playing with us, and Reba would go searching for stuff to help us overthrow the cats.
Reba started pushing a crochet hook with her ball underneath the dresser for when the day came and we would need to fight those nasty fur balls off!

A Rat Story

It was early in the morning when I awoke from a terrible dream of Pushy, my owners house cat. Emily is my mom and I always hear her calling the one we call Pushy something weird.... In my dream Pushy had been chasing me through the house with his claws unsheathed, his large teeth glimmered in the low light. I was cornered and he was about to spring. The reason I woke so suddenly from the night mare was caused by Reba, she was pushing the glass food bowl up against the side of our tank.
"What are you doing?"I asked sleepily.
"Trying to wake Hannah up so she can feed me!" Reba replied in frustration. She continued the annoying slamming of glass upon glass until Hannah walked over and rubbed her finger nail across the wire cage top. It startled me and I was wide awake in no time (thanks alot Hannah). Then she noticed the bowl and took it from the cage with much noise, waking up Emily. The food was same as always and still tasted like dirt. I walked over to rub Reba's thinning hair with the tip of my nose.
"That stupid Pushy was staring at our cage all night being creepy and what not," Reba said through a mouth full of sun flower seed " if I ever get out of here I'm going straight for that weird little cat!" she squeaked angrily. Reba had been acting really irritable lately and the hair on her back had started falling out. It's probably the cats scaring her like they scare me, I had reassured myself night after night.

Drawing


I like posting pictures!

Manga


This is my absolute favorite character in Naruto! His name is Gaara! I drew this one two years ago so I should probably post a more recent on of him.......

Some people think that Naruto fans are nerdy, I used to think so to! But once I started reading them I couldn't stop! If you think it's dumb that I know every bodies name in this manga and their abilities, than you try to read them, see if you don't get attached to them and learn every bodies names! (Sorry dad that I thought it was nerdy of you before I got into them!)

Here's one of my finished pictures! It's my older sister and our rambunctious cat Snickers!

Animals

I to all the people who own hamsters out there and actually like them, I'm sorry but I've owned two and I did NOT like them! They bit me all the time and every waking moment were trying to get out of their cages! I've owned six rats but it turned out to be to expensive so we kept two. My sister has a rat named Reba and she was awesome from the start! I had one not to long ago, her name was Pip and she was a dumbo rat (so cute!). I loved her so much but it turned out a customer at the pet store might have dropped her or she was just a runt so she was very timid. A timid rat isn't a good thing because they like to bite when there scared........... We returned Pippay Naomi Leon two days after we got her (she preferred my fingers over rat food). I was very sad that I couldn't have a rat........ we were about to get rid of Hannah's rat when my dad changed his mind (thank you daddy!). But since it was my idea in the first place my mom said to pray and hopefully God would bless me with a rat... I prayed every night and reminded my mom (maybe a little to much) about asking my dad for a rat. One day while we were out having girl time, (everybody else was at a sleepover) my mom surprised me with the news we were getting a rat! I prayed that God would let me see the perfect rat and that she would be good. Once we got to the pet store I walked to the small animals part of the store and was all excited, but when I looked in (it had been three weeks since we returned Pip) I saw my previous rat all by her lonesome. I was disappointed but chuckled because the little monkey was still in there. We got in the car and my mom said we would check the pet store near our house. When we got there I went straight for the rats (again). And was happy to find two cages with five and three rats in them! I saw a small brown and white one that reminded me of Pip and instantly thought that I shouldn't get that one. The one cage with five rats in it were all black and white, but I really wanted a brown and white one. I stuck my hand in the cage with brown and white ones. An average sized brown one with red eyes went straight to my hands. I was secretly hoping the large brown and white one in the corner was the one that would all of a sudden stand out (it wasn't). I picked the brown one up and she made herself comfortable on my shoulder. Usually when you pick up a new rat it will pee on you but this little one was just happy to have a little attention. I held her for a while hoping that the large one I had seen would show some small sign of awesomeness (that didn't happen). But after I had held the brown one for a while she had me glued to her! I had planned on calling my next rat Twinkies but decided then that I wanted to call her Pudding! Now we're best buds and we love on each other. Sadly Reba became more jumpy after we got Pudding but they're still good room mates!

Book

I started a book recently, but I need an opinion on my characters names........ If anyone out there has a good name for my two characters ( a boy and a girl) please give me your suggestions.

Female: brown hair, brown eyes, pale skin with freckles.

Male: silver/white hair, lavender eyes, pale skin.

Drawing

I have always loved drawing. My dad is really awesome so I guess I get it from him. I'm into drawing anime people and animals (mostly rats) and I like to teach my friends to! But there's one girl I taught that's like very good now! Shes like 4 years younger than me! I hope you'll like some of the pictures I post!

Animals

I used to think it would be weird to own a rodent.... But now I have one and she's awesome! I don't like to think of her as a rodent because it sounds mean. I think of her like a friend, like one would think of their dog as a friend! Rats are actually the animal that is closest to humans! They can dream and you can teach them stuff! Did you know they use rat brains to power certain robots!?! (weird) To all those kids who want a rat but can't persuade their parents, you should Google "great things about rats"! Of course i can tell you some now!

1. Your mom or dad might think that a rat is a dirty, smelly animal but really rats are very clean and hate to have a messy cage. My rat is nothing like our hamsters! Pudding just has this faint smell.... Hmmm..... I cant think of anything it would smell like.

2. They LOVE attention and will get attached to you pretty quick (and you to them). I've only had Pudding for a week or two but I've taught her how to stand on command!

3. What i love so much about Pudding is that when shes scared or a noise is to loud, she will run back to me, climb to perch on my shoulder and i can give her kisses and she to me.

First Post

This is my first blog....... So far its been a challenge setting things up....... Anyway! Me and my rat Pudding are like best buddies..... People usually think that rats are disease ridden rodents! An outrage i say! :) Actually rats are very clean and make great pets.
My interests are: drawing, writing, ballet, playing with Pudding and color guard.
