It is with a heavy heart that I let you know that Chandon has followed Moët to the great cheese in the sky. 
She had been increasingly inactive over the last couple of days and had been losing weight dramatically. When I came home last night, she was very cold and though I tried to warm her up it was to no avail.
All very sad. Still there is still Sodit, Doobry, Nelson, Wellington and Nice Guy Eddie to keep me occupied.

Dalek Stroking
Posted Oct 9, 2001
This weekend I stroked a dalek.
No I did! Honest! I honestly did! Come back, come back! It's all true I tell you! All true!
Why won't any one believe me?

Now we are six!

The Collective is back up to full strength! 
First up I would like to introduce two mice who have moved in with Chandon; they are two 12 week old girls - one black satin coated and one white curly coated. No names as yet so any hints would be welcome.
Bringing up the rear, the largest, most enthusiastic and downright cute member of the collective is Eddie, the Libyan Jird. If you want to see what he looks like the links can be found on my personal space but it is true - male jirds really do sleep on their backs with all four paws in the air. Eddie is a bit of a JCB at heart - his day is spent digging, eating and sleeping. His enthusiasm to see me and to have a bit of a petting session is very endearing.
Nelson and Wellington are well hacked off about the diet unfortunately - but they did like being put in an empty bath for some exercise!

News from the Rodent Collective.
Unfortunately Panya Mdogo is still missing having broken out of her luxury mouse house about a month ago 
We set humane traps for her but she continues to evade capture and I fear we must expect the worse.
Entertaining news for us, but bad news for Nelson and Wellington is that the boys seem to have that fat mouse gene that scientists are always claiming to have discovered. So as of this morning they are being put on a healthy eating regime. As of tomorrow they are going to be exercised twice a day in mouse exercise balls, until they stop looking like eggs with legs, tails and whiskers. (I know I am a fine one to talk so I am going on a diet with them, if only Rosemary Conley also did a "Tail and Whisker diet" we would be laughing.)
Dharmesh, my fellow italic, is acting as nutritional adviser & personal trainer to Nel & Well on account of the fact he does volunteer work at London Zoo's small mammal house. I shall set up a page and keep you all informed of their progress.
Oh and I am planning on expanding the Collective. There is a specialist rodent shop near me and I am visiting it tomorrow morning.
