Hi !
The thing is that they "work" perfectly as trio (until Laureen
comes into heat) so we don't feel likely to separate 'em ...
Although sooner or later we'll leave Otto with Laureen and
give Nutty little brother ... (right now we don't have room)
Btw they (the boys) are together again and everything is
fine (they sleep together right now) !
Enjoy !
