Continuing the rat personality series of posts, we have the post featuring Blue. When we first got the rats, Blue and Cao Cao were the smallest rats (with Cao Cao perhaps being a tad smaller), but now Blue is squarely on the average as far as weight goes. Blue is also blue. Yep, that's why he's called that, we're not that imaginative. :) It's actually a color which really feels more like a gray to me, but it has enough of a hint of blue that I can sorta see why it's called that.
We were originally very worried about Blue, as he was extremely vocal about Lu Bu coming close to him. This vanished within a few days though, and Blue seems to get along well with the others, though he is more commonly hanging around with Barrick and Scotty. Blue is very calm, though not as social as Lu Bu, he doesn't get bothered by petting or sudden movements. He's also a good climber, usually the second one to manage any particular climbing feat. While it's hard to define what "sweet" means, Blue is definitely the sweetest of the rats. He loves his naps, unlike some of the rest who are very easily distracted from their naps, and he loves hiding in the hammock or burrowing under the covers. He's not really interested in tussling, but seems to do pretty well, though more commonly he's the one trying to nap when Cao Cao flips Barrick over, landing right on Blue's nose or generally interfering with the napping.
I think that about describes it. Blue was my favorite rat when we first took them home, as he was the quiet one who reminded me of myself. I really should get some pictures and link them up here :)
