***waves*** Nice to see you about and hope you are well. Sounds an interesting swap, though not heard of it.

We had our first escapee the other night when Thorin went flying out of the Rotastak wheel as it came away from the cage. Much stess, worrying and weeping ensued but we managed to tempt him out with cheese and raisins! Hope all your furries are well.
