About two weeks ago we lost one of our Degus to what we think was probobly viral pnemonia. Since then Mum and Sis have been pining and acting odd.

So on Sun we brought home Kaylee and Scruff, two seven week old Degu pups who seem to have adopted Flo and we all seem to be getting along famously.

I'll get some pics tonight but there have been some side splittingly funny moment. Especially when you conside that young Kaylee is about mouse sized and the adults are [!Expletive Deleted!] than domestic rats and Kaylee thinks she is the Alpha Female.

chris.hunt22:

andyhubbard:

Degu ...


Of all the things I can think of to describe these things, 'stupid' does not eneter the list anywhere. They are very intellegent little sods. They can and will get just about anywhere, they steal and horde things, I have seen them open the cage once and I know theyve done it before.

And dont even start on the whole aspect of catching one thats decided making you angry and really hacked off is WAY more fun than going back into its cage.

Then theres the theft of every single door wedge in the flat after my ex used one to stop them chewwing the underside of the door.

The burying of my sisters car-keys in her bowl of popcorn while she treid to catch the other one.

The MASSIVE stash of lego found behind my desk when I moved.

More attention seeking than most cats/dogs

Several bowls of food launched at me

Sharpened branch launched at the ex in the middle of a row

I could go on. If the wheel is all thats driving you nuts, you're onto a good thing.
