Mostly it&#8217;s tough to tell them apart, but they do have distinct personalities already:<\/p>\n<p><em>Nikola<\/em> is very friendly and calm. He was the first one to learn to brux and boggle as a baby.<\/p>\n<p><em>Neil<\/em> is very interested in grooming people.\u00a0 He is always one of the first ones at the cage door.<\/p>\n<p><em>Erwin<\/em> just wants to cuddle. He likes to crawl into my hair and fall asleep, and enjoys a good pet.<\/p>\n<p><em>Carl <\/em>is wiggly but will allow pets and snuggles.<\/p>\n<p><em>Marie<\/em> is curious and wants to explore; it was tough to get her to sit still for a photo! When she calms down, she is open to the idea of resting on a lap.<\/p>\n<p><em>Rosalind<\/em> is identical to Marie but more relaxed. She&#8217;ll rest in my arms and fall asleep well before her sister even considers slowing down.<\/p>\n<p><em>Dorothy <\/em>is active but snuggly. She&#8217;s a real sweetheart and is always trying to groom and lick my hands.<\/p>\n<p><em>Caroline<\/em> is the calmest girl. She likes to crawl into sleeves and hoods and fall asleep.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><strong>ADOPTED:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><del>#2016108N, &#8220;Marie Curie&#8221;, Rat, Beige, Self, Standard Ears\/Standard
