  • Bonnie T.  Barry

    How delightful! Reminds me of a child trying to hold another child; sometimes things get topsy turvy in the process. I think the little lamb is saying, “Put me baaaaack in the pram!”

  • Ellen replied

    Thank you Jan!

  • Sharon Wormleaton

    Sharon Wormleaton

    Excellent as always. You could always try a title along the lines of ‘wait this isn’t ours’, ie it’s a lamb and they are rats. I don’t know it’s a tricky one to make a title for but it’s an excellent picture nonetheless and I don’t think people would worry what it’s called

  • Karen Cook

    Karen Cook

    Oh, it looks like he’s giving it a kiss! Another lovely pic Ellen :o)

  • lianne

    I never tire of seeing Moppy and Witje doing their thing! I’m not good at titles, but how about “The Trainee Shepherds”. Your ratties might well try to shepherd a young lamb by placing it in a pram. ;o)

  • Karin  Taylor

    Karin Taylorcommunity helper

    I don’t think it’s a better title, but ‘Mousie had a Little Lamb’..just popped into my head :D
    I love this, the little mice and adorable, their facial expressions and body language never fail to make my heart lighter :D

  • Ellen replied

    Thats a very nice title…thanks!

  • Anthony Vella

    Anthony Vella

    A very funny but exceptional shot Ellen. I first thought that they were toy rats, but now I changed my mind. Who is to look after them while you’re in Malta? I don’t think you can bring them with you.

  • Ellen replied

    Thanks Tony….next week i will bring them to the petshop:)
    They take good care of them.(on monday evening i will arrive in Malta, looking forward to it)

    Another of your usual outstanding work – How about “Little Bo Peep has lost her sheep and I know where to find it.” :)

  • Joanne  Bradley

    Joanne Bradley

    No way would I trust these two even if their names were Mary and Little Bo Peep! They sure don’t come across as trustworthy! lol But excellent actors in your charming skit! Another great capture by the mouse trainor!!!!

  • Ellen replied

    Thanks Joanne, i can understand why you dont trust them :))

  • Danielle Davenport

    Danielle Daven...

    “See, I told you he poo’ed”, lol

  • Ed Moore

    Hi ya Ellen…Are you sure these are YOUR rats, and not some that were borrowed from the local pharmaceutical testing company? They seem hungry, and there is nothing better than leg of lamb, if you’re a dirty rat! Hehehe. I’m hungry!

  • Ellen replied

    Thanks Ed for your comment! My rats were bought at the petshop:)

  • Neety

    Neety

    Oh my god…again this is beyond perfect!
    One of my favourite photos of my rat Vassago (may he rest in rattie peace) was when he was holding onto the bottom of a vanilla Cornetto. Becuase his hands were so little and delicate, it was like he was holding a full sized Cornetto. Your photos brought back happy memories. :-)

  • Ellen replied

    Thank you Neety, glad i brought back some good memories :)
    Best regards.
