Every critter in this house could use just a little more love. One more hug, more time getting patted, brushed, or messed with. But poor little Beaker is not a people person. He is terrified if you try to get him out of his cage. He doesn't freak out when I change his millet, but that took a long time. I felt bad that he didn't have anyone to snuggle or cuddle with. He has a deep and complicated relationship with his mirror but it is just not the same. So after looking around we decided to bring a new housemate, a girlfriend maybe, home for Beaks.
It has taken a while to settle on a name for her. She is young, and strong, and wrapped up in her own little world. So we decided to go back to the roots of Beaker's namesake for hers. The scientist and the assistant. The Doctor is Dr. Bunsen Honeydew so that would not work on it's own since she is a she. We proudly introduce Dr. Bunny Honeydew.
