I'm also a "neat freak" when it comes to my lil peeps' homes. It's the first thing I do (while checking for illnesses - if they're not sick, they get placed on a wrapper, sock or weed.) Sick ones get piled in the middle of the house until they have their meds, but they get to help clean as soon as they get it. lol I don't even give the fruits or handwash until the house is clean.
