Introducing Mortimer and Wheeler

I wanted to introduce you to Mortimer and Wheeler, our new rats. Mortimer is the grey and white while Wheeler is the brown and white.

Neither are too out going yet but both are getting braver as the week goes on.

They are named afterSir Mortimer Wheeler. A famous archaeologist from the 50's and 60's. He used to be on 'Animal, Vegetable, Mineral?' which got a panel of experts to work out what the chosen objects were. Wheeler used to go to the British Museum and see what had been borrowed from the collections to give himself an edge - genius!
