Her name is Cherry.

Name for baby...

I would name him/her Wilard after that most famous rat that Michael Jackson sang a song for.

that clip makes them look cute in a bulky kind of way, in reality they can be mean little fuckers, a bit like more aussie flora and fauna now I think about it. Nothing like a tourist who just had an angry koala piss on thier head.

Or some idiot backpacker getting his head kicked in outside the Green Room.
