Mom is always amazed and amused when she watches Huey during play time. Huey definitely does not let it be known that he has no sight. One would never know he is blind by watching him run around in his play pen. He explores for about 10 seconds before he maps out his route and runs the exact same path over and over until he gets bored and then switches it up a little. He runs non stop, as fast as he can. Unless mom stays up really really late and hides in the dark she doesn't get to see Horatio or I play, however......... Huey is a totally different story!! As Huey can't differentiate between day and night (light and darkness) he is active whenever his little heart pleases. This often means he is active right when mom and dad get up and then again in the evening when mom and dad get home. He puts on quite an impressive show. He loves his wheel, but he is a very cautious wheel runner, so his pace is a little on the slow side (therefore he has a rounder bottom than the rest of us). On solid ground though, he's faster than as a speeding bullet.... OK, sort of! Here's some shots of him getting away!!

Where did you get the "playpen?" I saw one like it at PetSmart for $12 but I wasn't sure it would be tall enough to keep Bella contained.
That would be the playpen. I purchased two of them and linked them together to make it big enough. One was a bit too small for running room. I purchased one at PetSmart and the other at PJ's Pet Center. Both were about $12 so it's probably the same one you saw.
I bought one today and it is a bit small. But Bella is quite a petite little thing. For now, I think it will work for her. She won't be spending a huge amount of time in it. She simply adores her wheel!!
Thanks for the advice!
I'm glad it worked out! Bella will enjoy the 'change of scenery'! It also comes in super handy during cage cleaning time!
