Quote - an ex-girlfriend used to have a pet mouse called mortimer, i used to call him squeak, connies rabbit piccie just reminded me of him, he used to look like that while he was guzzlin' at his water bottle,

he used to have all these tubes and things attached to his cage, it used to be quite funny wakin' up to see what he had been up to through the night and where he had decided to sleep, kept draggin his beddin about and making a new bed somewhere else.

anyway every night, the night shift kicked in, he clocked in at the water bottle, and then went to work that wheel baby!!

-squeak, squeak,squeak-
quick tea-break, then back to the wheel with him.

he must of run a marathon every night, i think he thought we needed him to power the nintendo.

Wow, How cute!!!!
I really wish I could have taken that little guy from my car for a pet!!!

Your story just reminded me there was a blurb on the news the other day how scientists think they discovered an exercise gene in mice. Mice whom have it would run miles and miles a day on their wheels, some incredible number for a mouse, like 10 or even 20 miles. Then there are those whom don't would drag their bedding and food into the wheel and lounge around, and only run around for 2-3 miles a day.
They speculate that people may have the same gene (or in my case, lack thereof).

Now I have to go and see if I can google that story ...
