Drago, I just found Kopi's thread and thoroughly enjoyed all of the pics and reading about her. I especially love the pics of her peeking out in her natural themed home and the one where she is being held in your hand (closeup). She is absolutely gorgeous (lovely coloring, expressive eyes, and whiskers galore), and I am so thrilled for you that she is becoming so tame and loves being held by you. You certainly have a natural talent for making all animals adore you instantly.

I also absolutely adore the three newest additions to your lovely home. The three, little mice are so, SOOOOO cute. I don't believe that I have ever seen mice with that coloring before. How unusual and totally stunning they are! I can't wait to hear what you decided to name them either. I SO love mice! I agree with everyone else, you most definitely need to create a separate thread for them as well. It will be so lovely to hear of all of their adventures, too.

As far as you being a hoarder, I DEFINITELY do not believe that to be the case. You are certainly an extremely loving, caring, and attentive pet owner who cherishes each and every one in your animal family. You give them everything that they could possibly even dream of having and so very much more. I agree with everyone else that it doesn't matter how many animals you have total; it only matters what quality of life they all are given with you. You give each of them a marvelous, happy, healthy, and loved life. They are all blessed to have you give them their loving, forever home just as you are lucky to have them to love and care for. Drago, please never doubt yourself and know beyond a shadow of doubt that you are most certainly NOT a hoarder, but instead are a lover of ALL animals. That is a sign of your truly loving heart, and you should always be proud of it.

You are absolutely correct about a hoarder being someone who takes on more than they can handle. You're taking just wonderful care of your little miss.

Koppiáge is very sweet. Robos are so silly, so I hope you're enjoying her!

Thank you all for the consolation on the hoarding thing, I really do appreciate the support around here X

You guys probably think Kopi has fallen off the face of the earth with how infrequently I update her thread. Luckily enough, she's doing excellently here. Unfortunately, she's been coming out really late (I'm talking midnight!) so I've not been able to handle her as much as I'd like to. However, when I do, she always seems so sweet and calm. She's about 9 months old now, as I adopted her at 7 months and I've had her for two. I can't tell if she's "tamed" or not yet as she lets me scoop her up and sits still in my hand (minus treadmilling from hand to hand when I offer my other) but she is a bit skittish still. I suppose she's extremely tame for a robo as she never bites or even nips and is happy to be handled, but I'm not sure to officially title her as tame yet or not. Only time will tell!




I deem it a law that anything a robo does no matter what, will always be incredibly adorable



I had more pictures, but unfortunately photobucket couldn't be reliable for more than 15 minutes! I'll share them tomorrow instead. Hope you all had a good weekend

Ooh I love Kopi updates!

Those pictures are so darling, the last one makes her look so sweet and young

I like your new law, I've gotta agree with it! Even if they are in a funny position or they are being very noisy they are still adorable.

You're lucky that you've done so well with taming! I'm FINALLY making progress with both boys. Tangerine took treats from me last night for the first time (yay!) and I'm at the point where I could lift Key Lime off the ground, think I'll try it next taming session.

I know how you feel about her coming out super late, my boys are doing the exact same. Tangerine comes out at 11:30-12:00 and Key Lime comes out a little later. I'd stay up that late every night if I could just so I could interact with them.

Sorry for the ramble lol, I'll stop now Tangerine and Key Lime wave paws to Kopi!

Sounds tame to me! And she's gorgeous, to boot. Koppiage, you need to come out earlier so we can see more of you!

Oh, Drago, Koppiage is just the cutest! I absolutely love the updated pics especially the last one. She looks so innocent and sweet peeking over her tissue. Awe, she is so adorable and cuddly looking; I so wish that I could just reach out and give her a big cuddle, too! I am so glad that her taming is going so wonderfully; she sounds quite tame tbh. I look forward to seeing any pics that you can share. Please, PLEASE come out earlier Koppiage so Drago has more bonding time with you and we can at least try to have our daily quota filled (although I certainly don't think it possible since you are just too incredible cutesy). I can't wait to see more.

Koppi is such a beautiful colour Drago, I can't get over how cute she is everytime you share a picture lol. Glad to hear she's doing well though, even if she is coming out later. It's a shame photobucket was being a pain so you couldn't upload any more pics but hopefully we'll get to see them soon
