debris4spike | My Friends Of Last week!

Well - they are still all my friends this week.

But I did promise you some pictures of the "family" that I looked after while Toni was away at the family wedding. They aren't great pictures - as ever have some others on film, so if they come out better I will post them (eventually!)

Ben is now 12 years old - and sadly not in the best of health. I will admit that worried me slightly when I agreed to look after him. He is marvellous - and really lovely - a true poppet, so overall easy to care for. You have to watch him while he eats - as he is so slow. if he is not careful his food gets stolen by Kai!

Kai is lovely - but also a nightmare as he just doesn't seem to mind being told off. He is 4 and when I look back over the last 3 years he has settled a lot ... BUT ... !!!

And finally there is Spike - it is hard to see but his shell is about 12 inches long. He lives out during the day, but has heat lamp during the night. When I was there he tended to stay in his shelter, so I had to feed him lettuce and cucumber as the weather was awful!
