The mice, particularly Bob, have an irritating habit of covering up their food and water with their bedding (leaves and shredded newspaper). This is especially annoying with the water, because not only does it fill the dish so they can't get to the water, but the newspaper wicks water out of the dish and turns their food to glue.

They still refuse to properly tame down. Wilhelm won't let us anywhere near him, and Bob is, if anything, getting wilder and less prone to being handled the longer we have him, in spite of our best efforts to be friendly and gentle.

I thought the whole point of a pet was you're supposed to be able to PET it. They're awfully soft ... when you can catch them.

We're actively hunting for a house in the Fairbanks area, mostly using the online MLS and realtor listings. It's so hard to tell from the online listings what the real faults of a property are, though. We were really excited about one place that looked perfect, until we discovered it was slowly sinking into a bog. (You think I'm joking. I'm not.)
