Henry

Henry has had little interest in me the past 5 days or so, and I think I've discovered why. He has a brand new burrow between the wheel and his straw tunnel. It must be a secret and I'm not supposed to find it! I think he's climbing on the log to interact away from it, going to try and play on the other side of the bin for him tomorrow. He's been a bit zesty, on his wheel non-stop and very talkative.

He seems more hamstery than ever, so I'm really happy for him. I will say the next quality time we have will be extra special, but he's spoiled me with a ton of it so far.
 
Long overdue for some Henry footage, it's been like 8 days of his wheel marathon. Trying to keep it at the same speed since he likes to build under it, he's so happy with it. I will try to film his log move tonight, it's pretty cute!

He does still greet me for a minute or two, I get kisses and sometimes he takes a treat. Today he was either indecisive or pulled a trick on me! He's smart enough and zesty lately, I think he got me. Also did a sunflower seed scavenger hunt while we wait for more flax, he finally stopped his zooming to find them at almost 6 am.

Fooled You Human!

Aww, that is such a lovely update on Henry. He really loves his wheel.

Did you look at the advent calendar today? 😊

I didn't until you mentioned it! Way too cute, so many great pictures. I could totally see Henry trying a skateboard, he has the right name for his personality. Not quite Indiana Jones, but still an accomplished explorer in his own right.
 
No log move today, he chirped for me and I missed approved human time. But Henry was definitely trying to lead me to the other side for playtime. He's built three new burrows, all by the wheel. Super happy that I can see one tunnel near the bottom of the bin.

He's finally using that deep bedding, at long last. He's also not on the wheel for the first day in 9 days, I think he's having a digging day.

Henry continues to be uninterested in playtime inside his bin for the 10th day in a row, but he took the taxi when offered tonight. He gave me some kisses, climbed all over my face, and settled down between the pillow & bed. He likes doing that on the couch too, a snuggle sack might be up his alley.

We had a half hour adventure all told. He had the most fun climbing on the blankets and a pile of work clothes, zero interest in my hamster hides & toys I set up. No interest in the dig box I made either. Time to find him a new blanket to explore, he knows what he likes.

Aww that sounds lovely, typical hamster when you get them lots of new things you think they’ll like then all they want is something simple like blankets!

It was so heartwarming, together time always means the world to me. He was bruxing a good deal while licking my hair & face, then it was off to the blankets!
