This little one was bought as live food for a snake, snake didn't eat, snake was sold, rat became "first come, first served". :sad3: Jenny picked him up an hour before he was to become a snake's dinner. Btw this little boy is considered "large" :roll: . He's really frightened and nervous, and has every right to be! Jenny told me he is even scared of the hammock in his cage. :undecided: Look at those sweet sweet eyes! He will arrive tonight along with Luna who I am hoping will be Norby's next gentle companion.

:thumbup: wonderful news! Spaz & Crumb team are on the case!

You could call him Tych (teek) , short for the Greek word τυχερός , which means lucky. Or maybe call him Fortune?
 
It fits :) I like it!

I'm so happy that I was able to make it there at the time I did. She had someone lined up after me and Mr. Tych wouldn't have ended up in a safe place. She was happy I showed up as well... yet she had the power to control his fate. Sad really...

He is very very very fearful and unsure, but I'm sure Shelagh will fix that!
 
and here we go...

Tych is a funny little man. Very nervous, but not scrambly get away from you nervous, but freeze and hope you go away nervous. :undecided:

I had already thought that I would like him in with Bean and the oldies...give Bean someone younger to hang out with, and when he arrived I said..."why not now?" And put them all on the bed. Wow, Tych totally changed...he was excited and happy and in no way scared of the others. The oldies are a sweet, accepting group, and I had literally done the same thing with Smitty the previous week. LOL

The night he came home

Much braver with friends :D He started off by humping everyone, and was ignored. You could see the oldies thinking "hmmmph...young'ins"

And last night I was lying on the bed and he was keeping an eye on me for any scary moves.

"you don't see me"

Tych is a pretty special little man. He plays with Bean but loves his Oldies so much. I introduced old grumpy Perses into the group and at first Tych scared him because he wanted to play but Perses was thinking he wanted to kill him and got really scared. It was funny watching a young boy like that have my big hulking man roll over on his back. So he gently lay on him and licked him LOL Tych then took over Perses' circus and this morning, they were cuddled up happily together....Awwww.
