Blossom 🌸

That looks like a really nice spot for her there.

That looks very cosy

Last night Miss B wasn't happy with the new arrangements She was being a real monkey, dashing around, climbing up the bars over her wheel and squeezing herself behind her wheel! If her tell her 'Come out of there' in a stern voice, she does lol I gave her a new nibble stick between the bars by her nest which seemed to settle her down. I'm yet to go downstairs, but there may well have been a tornado during the night and resulting carnage in her cage

Blossom woz ere 🌪 She came out this morning and we had a little chat to reassure her. She pouched some bedding and took it back to her nest. She'll be fine in a day or two

 

[elusive]

She had to make a statement but it sounds as though she’ll settle in ok there.

 

[Maz]

She’s just getting everything back to how it should be lol! I do think it’s similar to talking to dogs actually and Raffy certainly responds to a stern “no”

She certainly likes to make her feelings known

I was surprised at how quickly she responds to a stern ‘no’, but she’s done it a few times now. I don’t have to do it often, but it’s useful that it works when I do, as I don’t want her to hurt herself.

Exactly - first time I did it, instinctively, was when Raffy was out free roaming and started to try and climb onto the hearth. Now I know he could t hurt himself as there was a fire guard up bit the hearth was mucky! Gets coal dust etc on it. He must have sensed the urgency or danger in my voice because he stopped when I said it and looked at me and he’s never tried again. I think if there’s trust there they do listen sometimes.

And the tree is up, with a little nod to Blossom

I did have a quick look but didn't spot one. Maybe I'm the first with a tree up

 

[Maz]

Since being moved, Miss B is clearly scent marking like crazy…her cage pongs right at the moment

 

[Maz]

Yes they do that don't they

 

[Lovelyness]

Not a great photo as I had to grab my phone quickly, but just managed to take a pic of Blossom foraging in her dig box while doing a handstand! She's quite the little gymnast

 

[RainbowBrite]

Very cute!

 

[Maz]

Aw she's an expert gymnast! I wonder why she doesn't just climb in lol! Hamsters do funny things
