Not too many people have toads or hedgehogs for pets:)

We think outside the box soup

Dolphin14 in reply toSillysausage234

Thank you SS. I think he loves me now. He's not 💩 on me as much

Sillysausage234 in reply toDolphin14

I think it depends how you perceive being shat on by a small animal with a loose bowel

Dolphin14 profile image
Dolphin14 in reply toSillysausage234

My perception is it's quite nasty. Small animal smells like a Horse. I think it was nerves. IBS type you understand. He's settling in, bowels not as irritable

Hi sweet boy.

Dolphin14 in reply toNothing_but_books

He is miss behaving NBP.... he won't come out of his ball.

I'm not waking up today

Nothing_but_books in reply toDolphin14

Maybe not misbehaving. Parrots teach us their language, and we don't always understand as quickly as they would like. They can get frustrated and impatient when that happens.

This means something to Herman. Be patient, and let him choose his way. I know you don't want him to withdraw from you, but you can let him choose.

Dolphin14 in reply toNothing_but_books

You are so right. He's not a morning person. He's sending me quite the message. Touch at your own risk haha

Starrlight in reply toDolphin14

He’s such a ball of cuteness my kiddos get a kick out of this too!

Dolphin14 profile image
Dolphin14 in reply toStarrlight

He is quite fascinating. He def let's me know it's not the proper time to try and cuddle him.

love him! 😍

He's gonna have to grow into those ears! What a sweet face!

Definitely. He's a real beauty.

I'm surprised this is a boy cat. I'm used to Toms being bulkier. Like linebackers.

DodgeDhanda profile image
DodgeDhanda in reply toStarrlight

I'm not gonna lie but I thought having a pet toad was a concept from old black & white movies from America lol ... hedgehogs on the other hand I know people rescue them but they're advised not to handle them too much as we should release them back into the wild.

Starrlight profile image
Starrlight in reply toDodgeDhanda

We are happy with toad and hedgehog and they are happy with us. And these pets live longer in captivity .so…

Thanks Val and I love your friend Eddie there so adorable. Yes all the animals!!!!! I recently saw a video with a puppy with a rabbit playing and the pup thought he was a rabbit too was hopping around!!!!!

Thanks Starrlight! I love those videos of different animal species interacting in peace. A good model for humans!
