Higgins

[Maz]

Higgins was so funny the other night - he is still such a character. He normally gets bored quite quickly in the playpen so I had him out on the sofa for a bit, then he was getting a bit too active, so popped him back in the playpen for a bit. And then I got distracted dealing with something so wasn't giving him any attention and he then started doing more in the playpen, without any attention, running in his wheel - which he hasn't done for a long time. So he had a much longer time than usual in the playpen and when I looked over, at one point, he was so funny - his carrot cottage had ended up next to his wheel and he was standing on the carrot cottage and sort of "running" on the outside of his wheel with his front paws . Back paws on the carrot cottage, most of body and front paws on the wheel "running" and spinning it round - he seemed to enjoy that and kept doing it for a while.

Unfortunately I didn't get that on video. But here are some photos of him and a video of him on the sofa.

Chewing a zip on something - he always chews zips

I can just imagine Higgins on his little exercise bike, with one eye on you to see if you had noticed what he was doing

He's so gorgeous ! Love his idea of 'running' on his wheel !! Also quite funny that he became more active in the playpen when you weren't looking !!! Lol

I wish I had video'd it . He was doing it for quite a while - it made me laugh a lot. I'm wondering if it was an attempt to escape the playpen - push the carrot cottage next to the wheel, climb on it, then run up the outside of the wheel.

Glad to see that Higgins is having a great time in the playpen

Very likely !! But his plan failed !!
