Thanks!!! I hope Cleo sounds unisex, because Petsmart told me he was a girl!

It seems every tort that is purchased from Petsmart or Petco is the opposite sex then what the buyer is told. With that long tail, gotta be a male:D. I knew of a male horse named Cleo, so I think it works:)

It was so funny. After 6-8 weeks of getting the more important things in order for Cleo, I came across a thread about sexing Hermanns. I had to check. So when I read that male tails were longer I kind of knew. That thing is like a 3rd leg! It will be interesting to see how my girls handle the news. :)

Piglet is so cute. I also have. That same plant in Cleo's habitat and "he" loves to burrow under it.

Actually, yes! It was on the first day I owned her (so I thought) and I thought, that's weird that a female would urinate like that- at least that's what I thought it was doing. It was my first suspicion.
