We are settling into a little routine where I play wis the rats before bed and Tokio watches. She’s generally not interested in them at all, but then finds it highly fascinating to watch me give them foods and pet them. She follows wis unfailing, unblinking eyes; it’s almost as entertaining as she seems to find them at that time.

Today I gave them bits of donut. Eventually I gave them a bit so big neither one could get it to her hoard. Marzi would pick it up and try to drag it under the stairs and eventually give up and just go under the stairs herself to check that her other bits of donut were still there. Then Tonks would come and try to drag it into the box and eventually give up and just go into the box herself to check that her other bits of donut were still there. It was very amusing.

Earlier I gave them pasta, but Tonks was sleeping assiduously at that point and Marzipan took her sweet time accepting new ones, so eventually I just put the pieces I had for them into the little bowl (which was empty at that time) and went elsewhere.
