Introducing ~ “Mouse Grayson Campbell”

Published by Elizabeth under Introductions, Mouse Tails, Winners

           

Following on from our competition to name this mouse……
 
 we have finally had our mouse choose a name… he ceratinly hs mulled over this name for a very long time…. and so we like to formally introduce you to
 
Mouse Grayson  Campbell   
 
with a nickname “ Squeaky” (but only to his close friends)
 
Grayson was submitted by Michelle S
Campbell was submitted by Kim
squeaky was submitted by Meredith
 
Rosie guessed the place correct  (Torquay)  and wins a $10 voucher
 
It was a wonderful competition so much fun…. however… there is a glitch
 
He has decided he wont leave? ”I know… I know….tell me about it”
 
He likes it here as he has taken on the role of  # 1 advisor in designer childrens fashion at La Toriana.  He has also been my PR agent and website stylist and feels he is far too valuable to be ” let go”.  He has set up residence in the warehouse with his own phone, lap top etc.and.. to be honest, I dont think I would be able to afford to pay anyone else or who would do half as good a job as he does.  The amount of work he does is incredible, and for the cost he charges me  (a slice of cheese a day)  he is a great asset.    But like I explained to him… “a deal is a deal….”
 
so he slept on it and came up with a brilliant plan!
 
well….
we all know how mice are excellent breeders, right?… well …. he has lots of brothers and sisters in the warehouse., He explained the situation to them, and so they are all so excited to be be going to new homes!!!  (yay).  So… Michelle, Kim and Meredith who were the winning entrants all get to adopt one! 
  • all Mouse Grayson  Campbell  asks is that he be sent regular emails and updates on his brothers and sisters through this blog.  Can you do this?  So… when they arrive take a pic and let us know what name you called them,  a bit about the family, town etc, where you go on holidays (always take them with you and get some pics)….   keep regualr updates and we will post them on his blog.  In turn, “Squeaky” (best known to his friends)  will keep you all up to date each month on whats been happening in his life through the La Toriana blog.
 
There are still a couple more brothers and sisters here so if you think you could provide them with a home this Christmas, (or their distant cousins 500 times removed) Edwardo the donkey, Sophie Sheep, …. and friends, please visit and adopt them please.
 
so… with no further to do….  ,we now have Mouse Grayson  Campbell   helping out at La Toriana.  He is off to go help his brothers and sisters pack and pop them on the right path for their new home.  
Everyone is so excited!
Warmly
Elizabeth xx

 ”Squeaky” (known by his friends) pops his head around the corner and gives us a cheeky smile and a little wink

Mouse tails….. “what is a name”

Published by Elizabeth under Mouse Tails, competition

 I think all the stress is getting to him…

so decided we needed a couple days away.  He just has to make sure he has the “right name”. That suits. We are amazed at how Macey was so social and chatty asking lots of people their names.   He has talked to men in suits, men in overalls, college boys in their uniform and waiters at a restaurant….. he is getting a feel for names and has a thirst for knowledge. He checks out my laptop and ponders over all the names you have submitted….    its so cute watching him.

 

Here is a photo taken with the doorman at The Hotel Windsor Melbourne… they chatted away for ages…. he even helped macey check out the names put forward and they came up with an idea…. (all will be revealed later)

There have been some great names put forward…..keep them coming…. he’s decided not to stress himself too much and wait til times up.  then he is going to take a few days AND “TRY THEM ALL ON” or so he says.

 we have  so far

Pickachu, jamie, Mason, maximillian,Mitey, pierre, munchkin, cutie, bubbles,  freckle, floppy, sam, pockets, spinney, charlie, sniffles, tickles, blackjack, freddie, squeaky, Dirk, Campbell, Vladimir, Mr. Mischief, Mouse Grayson,Edward, Frederick, Lawrence   ……

 

 

Macey is all excited now and on a real high… he is really getting into the names now.   There is still time to pop in your suggestions….. You have til sept 30th.

Mouse without a home

Published by Elizabeth under Mouse Tails, competition

Still looking for a name and a home!!

Yep… Its been hard trying to keep this mouse away from the computer to check if there is anyone… someone who thinks he’s cute and has given him a name!

 

So… I ended up  (for both our sanity)  taking this rascal down the beach for some R & R.  we played  and splashed, went and ate fish and chips by the sea and told stories before heading back for a hot chocolate and a BBQ dinner.

We walked and walked… often not even talking, but always saying hello to one of the friendly locals walking along. (gee these locals here are nice!  you all should come here for a holiday… its fabulous!)

we walked for ages and laughed and we both actually DID relax!

This little charactor would sometimes, stop… look out into the deep blue ocean and ask  “do you really think  someone could love me”

me, the optomist I am would say “ABSOLUTLEY.  They would be crazy if they didnt… I love you!” 

there would be a chuckle… and the comeback would be… “awww… but thats your job!”

We would both chuckle, and walk along … not saying a lot, but knowing soon… my dear little friend… MAY have a home”.  But I really DO love him!
