Even rodents have personality. I know it sounds silly, but it's true. We had 2 and it was easy to tell them apart even thought hey looked exactly the same, because of personality. Same with my chinnies. It was just realy sad for me because I was feeding him through a dropper. He was trying to get it in his mouth, but his body was all spazzed out from the stroke. His mind was with it, but his body wouldn't work I could have kept him alive, but I think it was the right thing to do. He would have had a terrible rest of his life in that state. He had a good life though. Very spoiled.
