The Dani Album


      Danis as of February 1998


      Here are photos of all the gerbils I have as of February 1998. 20! Some came out better than others. And there are 2 of my little brother's old pied dove, Casper, who died back in '97, or maybe it was '96 even. Please be patient and wait for them to load = )


      The proud patriarch, Pookie, who at the time of this picture has had 20 children, 13 grandchildren, and awaiting the arrival of a litter of great-grandchildren (via Angel, of Phoebe's first litter, and his mate Sweet Pea, who live in Oklahoma), and also has 4 "married" grandchildren.

      Adia Kelly, newly "married" to Riven, poses for a science fair picture.

      Ben, head tilt and all, shows the camera his best side = )

      Ciaran, proud father of 13, is very photogenic today.

      Here is Casper, my brothers old gerbil, a pied dove. He died over a year ago, I believe. Oh yeah, that horrific-looking beast behind him is my little brother Peter = )

      Here my brother illustrates perfectly what NOT to give a gerbil as a home: lots of cardboard boxes with no lids and easy escape routes, in a house inhabited by 2 cats.

      Dana doesn't like this picture; she always comments "No wonder I look awful, I was pregnant!" Yeah, maybe 3 or 4 days . . . = )

      Here are Reilly and Eve, also newlyweds.

      Fox is great at being in pictures. Doesn't he look lovely? He wants to look his best for his first litter of babies.

      Grace, why the goofy expression?

      Lautrera Litter 3, up to no good in Phoebe & Ciaran's tank.

      Enigmatic pied DEH Lucy isn't afraid of the camera (actually she is; I have another picture of her where she's ducked behind my hand!)

      No, I'm not strangling Monny. I was merely holding him. As you can see, he DOES have a double chin, my little hamster man ;)

      This is an old photo of Missy's first or second (probably second?) litter. I can only make out Missy, Pookie, and an agouti pup (Gamma? Delta? Sudafed?)

      Reilly, bathed in the yellow light of my dad's lamp.

      Riven Kelly, Adia's young mate, a patched grey agouti. He's cute, he knows it, nuff said.

      Skittish . . .with some goofy black substance on his nose! Where does he find this stuff, really . . .

      All for now! = )
