> **limegreen** , what rules do you think you’re breaking? Nobody here can post pictures directly. You need to host them somewhere(photobucket, imageshack, fliker, etc.) and post links.

The requirement to post photos of anything fuzzy, furry, cute, pet or baby.

Exactly. All announcements of new/baby/squee-worthy things must be accompanied by pics.

It’s only a rule under the culture of this place, not an official one that the moderators will take notice of.

However, that being said, where’re the pictures? _taps foot_

No mods will take notice, but I have heard rumors about goats, sheep, and something about being slapped with a fish…

**limegreen,** yes, their noses are very sensitive. Their teeth are short, fairly blunt peg teeth (shallow root) so if they bite, it is usually not too painful. Our male, Bramble, bit me the other day when he had had enough of his nail trim. Not sharp, but hard, and he didn’t let go!

Good Lord. And I thought armadillos just got ugly _after_ the car hit them.

Sorry!
