I mentioned to Shaun...

I mentioned to Shaun that I wanted to just SEE if the girls might get along so he made it happen.  This is a video of how it went.

Pomona goes all "Come at me, bro!  I can't reach you!  Watch me do push-ups!" and Teyla is just like "Haaay, girl!  Wassup?  I'm waving at you!"  Ho. Ly. Shit.  😂

For the record they are not housed together.  They don't even live in the same room.  This is their first meeting ever and from the looks of it - also their last.  I don't need any fighting dragons!

Please pardon the grody-looking bars of Pomona's setup.  That is the top of an old guinea pig cage I snatched up out of the garage and threw down on a scrap of linoleum and it's just sitting in the middle of the game room floor.  Yes - it's janky.  It was meant to be temporary and it still is... I just haven't figured out a better setup for her yet.  😛

For the record Mona really seems to love it.  I prop one end open in the evenings with that roll of tape so she comes and goes as she pleases.  She stomps around the room, licking things, climbing things, terrorizing Emma, whatever, and then goes back up under her light to get warm.  Rinse and repeat.  😂  She has things to do.

What's really interesting to me is that my girls have totally different reactions to each other - and everything, really.  They are just so different.  When I take Teyla places she likes to ride on my shoulder, but Mona never wants to stay put.  She needs to GO so if I took her anywhere I'd probably just have to leash her and let her walk.  😂

I love getting to know my kids and seeing how different they all are.  I don't care how lame it might sound - animals definitely have distinct personalities.  It's all a matter of whether you take the time to get to know them or not.  To me it's totally worth it.  They are all somebody, too!  🙂
