Buddha and Lotus

Nicknamed "The Two Bad Mice", Buddha and Lotus came to live with us in January 2004.  Buddha is charcoal and white with tan markings on the underside (chin, armpits, legpits).  Lotus is a lovely redhead.  Both are female.

    

The mice are a lot of fun, very active and surprisingly interactive with humans.  They're always interested in a shoulder ride while their cage is being cleaned in the evening.  During daylight hours, they mostly asleep.  They're touchingly affectionate with one another.  They groom one another and sleep snuggled tightly together.
