Too cute!

Thank you for the offer but I think I'll stick with my pool filter sand. Not as pretty but significantly cheaper :)
It is absurd to talk of one animal being higher than another. We consider those, when the cerebral structure/intellectual faculties most developed, as highest. A bee doubtless would when the instincts were.

Thanks Dark! No, funny that you ask though. My bf and I were trying to touch him the other day to get a feel of what he likes/doesn't like.

We can pet his head, but if you try to touch his tummy he certainly does not like that!!!

Just looking, I think Kaleeko and my BeeBoo are about the same size, possibly BeeBoo being just a tad smaller. Too bad you aren't closer, they could be puffer-lovers! :smitten:

There is this look to Kaleeko, after the last bite is gobbled up... like suprise that the food is already gone, then slight confusion, eyes going rapidly back and forth to find the missing bit of the meal.
No matter how magnificent your successes or devastating your failures, the worlds' approximately 5 billion impoverished people could not possibly care less.
