so as some of you may know, i got dumped and was having trouble figuring out what to do with my baby boys (one was mine the other was his) and after much MUCH hard deliberation, I have decided to let him keep the boys as long as 1. he follows my rules (aka clean cage at least once a week, cut food into small manageable pieces for glider hands...etc) 2. must purchase a larger cage 3. i have visitation rights.

so now the good part: after looking for a few weeks I finally emailed the lady I got my boys from. As I want girls this time, I asked her and basically she said she had buyers for all of her girls. THEN today I got an e-mail from her saying that she hadn't gotten the deposit check for the twin grey girls, and if i still wanted them, she would save them for me!!!! i seriously was tearing up at my computer.

This is soooo bitter sweet! I'm going to set up my boys tomorrow and to say good bye. My girls will be ready to come home at the end of april (perfect amount of time to get a cage all set up) but I'm gonna miss my boys sooo badly! The only thing I won't miss is their smell...lol but they just started to bond with me....


anyone have wise words? I know I'm doing the right thing for my boys so they wont be moved around every other month. I just need to keep thinking this: I'm doing the right thing.

And now to pick out girl names! I'm naming them after harry potter characters...anyone know house-elf names? :)

PS: If you have something mean to say about me handing over my gliders to the ex....dont. i cant deal with that right now. and I'll get rowdy and angry and nobody wants that on the post!! Plus. i know he'll take care of them

I'm just happy they're staying together. As long as you know they'll be cared for, there isn't much more you can ask for. I'm afraid I'm ZERO help when it comes to Harry Potter anything.

Winky and Dobby!
^^

my backdoor neighbor has a dog named dobby...lol same reference

You could also name her Crookshanks :-p
Or Scabbers.
(I reallllly like Harry Potter. My fiancee' wanted to name Totoro Scabbers xD)

Glad you were able to do what's best for the boys. It's great that you and your ex were able to set up visitation. Good luck with your girls. You must be so excited!

Fang! (Hagrid's dog)

or Luna. I loooove Luna. Lavender, Kreacher (the Black family house elf), Minerva (McGonagall), Hedwig (the owl), Pidwidgeon (Ron's teeny owl), Fleur (Delacour- Bill's wife and Harry's opponent in the Tri-Wizarding Championship), Madam (Poppy) Pomfrey (the nurse in the hospital wing), Lily (Harry's mom), Molly (Ron's mom- the name of my glider!), Ariana (Dumbledore's little sister), Kendra (Dumbledore's mom), Bellatrix and Narcissa, Rowena (Ravenclaw)... whew!

So that's probably toooo much. But i freaking love Harry Potter. :D good luck! and congrats on the new babies!!!

i was thinking if one was especially vocal, i'd name her mertyl :) and i love manerva, its just fun to say. but lunais also a favorite. maybe ill name one nargles. lol!!

There were two other house-elves named Hokey and Kreacher

I like Poppy and Fleur ^.^ They sound nice together!

congrats on your new girls, and I'm sorry about your boys, but I'm glad you are looking out for them in their new home
