Whiskers and Hedgehogs
posted by Chris at 21:56
Two posts for the price one today.
When we got Troy, Claire pointed out to us that he had no whiskers on his jaw. Apparently they dissapeared after one of his more stressful re-homing attempts. Well, the good news is that they are growing back!
I'm lucky enough to have a reasonable size garden, and it seems to attract a fair amount of wildlife (probably 'coz of the low level of maintainence it gets), including hedgehogs. Kai just sniffs at them then ignores them (inedible and don't move); Troy hasn't discovered them yet; but Monty and Jack go nuts at them. I guess they can't quite figure out why this thing that was walking across the lawn has suddenly stopped and curled into a ball. Jack just stands and barks at them; Monty, in his own inimitable fashion, trys to get them moving again by digging a hole next to them so they roll. The lawn is now starting to ressemble a lunar landscape.
Still, this makes a change from Murphy's trick of bringing them back in the house and depositing them in your lap.
