    ... today cuz i went to check on him and
    he was GONE GONE GONE....

    i was somewhat frightened because i had no
    idea how long he was gone or wtf he was in
    relation to my house.... [img]confused.gif[/img]

    however, i picked up the couch and there
    he was... running around within the couch
    (its a sleeper couch!)....
    i finally pinned him under the protective
    flap beneath the cushions...

    and returned him safely to his cage...

    he's a cutie....

    but i did feel a bit weird that he was in
    my couch all day and i didn't even know it.

    i'm sure he appreciates living in my tank as
    opposed to being traumatized by the cats and
    ending up as a meal

    if you are so sure then you should give him a little door so that he can come and go as he pleases.

    TG's earlier posts reminded me of my pet rat, a big Willard-looking stray I caught while it was still a baby. Rats can be trained, so when I had him (1988-1991), his cage DID have a miniature swinging doggy-door on it, so he could run out whenever he pleased. But he knew the cage was where the good food was, so always returned.

    Mice can be equated to Cats, in that neither can be trained to follow verbal commands. Rats therefore equate to Dogs, in that they can be trained with verbal commands, and simple 'Pavlov's Dogs' psychology.

    the tank does have a lid.... one of those screened
    things that are good for turtles and whatnot.

    i had a coupla rats (in succession)... however,
    maybe its just me... but i preferred my mice
    over my rats... as it seemed my mice were more
    conforming to me as opposed to my dumbass rats.

    maybe they were just mental [img]tongue.gif[/img]
