Mr Nibbles Diary

[Yorkie]

Just as I was going to have my early evening nap, someone knocked on my door. It was my neighbour who likes to come around for a coffee and good nosey around and gossip (always inconvenient and not invited ).
The Typ who walks around picking things up to investigate, 0hhh ahhhh what’s that is it new?
Today as she walked past the playpen her nose twitched. I have not cleaned Nibbles new wheel as to let him get used to it, and he’s has peed in it quite a lot
I could see by her face: she had a whiff of that wheel and said: it smells of Maggie here (the German marmite). Have you dropped some on the floor?
At first I was not going to say anything, but she was sniffing around looking for the slash of maggie. Me: oh that! No it’s just my hamsters wheel, he’s peed in it and I have not cleaned it yet.
She didn’t want a coffee, nor a chat or a biscuit… never got rid of her so easy before thanks Nibbles. But I will clean that wheel tomorrow

Mmm,maybe you need to not clean that wheel more often. I wouldn't even invite such a neighbour in,she doesn't deserve to have your time.

She is the Typ who likes to invite herself, has only been her a few times as I usually shout I am under the shower
But I don’t think she will be back so soon, she didn’t appreciate Nibbles perfume

The AC has arrived. I can’t carry it up the stairs (I did try). My friendly Russian Neighbour will carry it up when he comes home in an hour. I will update later. It can’t be used until tomorrow as it has to stand for 24 hours because of the cooling fluid (same as a fridge). Exciting

The feel reason he peed in there (I believe) is he has a better grip so he can run better, also and foremost, he little paws turn into suction cups when I want to get him out and put him to bed
It’s not possible to get him out if he refuses! At the moment we are having quite an issue every night!
I do hope his wheel fixation stops sooner or later. It is a bit annoying, he loves it and it’s a good exercise but he’s clearly addicted to it.
You cannot scoop him up in there either. When I do scoop him in my hands he rolls himself into a ball if he wants me to pick him up, then he lies on his back in my palm and starts cleaning his privates. It’s easier than when he sits down to do this as he sometimes rolls over it’s not very cuddly but it’s a start

Spider ham A wheel is for life If he stops using it there's something wrong
That's so cute, your cupped hands are a perfect couch for attention to his toilette

good morning aunty nosey neighbour always stands in front of my cage and says no one in there! Now she knows I am there! I left a huge smell of my musk scent she was gone very fast. She calls me a rat I don’t like her.
Mum was very pleased, she said good job little Ninja but I must clean the wheel tomorrow. ah well, there plenty more where that came from
Lots of cuddles for you and the piggies and fish do fish like cuddles? Maybe you blow them a kiss from me. Dayie day

A rat ‍Oh the audacity Well there are some nice rats around, but I don't think hamsters and rats like each other much Irritating woman
The fishes all blow lots of kisses back. They are a bit too quick for cuddles but they like food and treats The piggies say well done, clever hammy We like to mark things with our unique boy smell too

I hope you don't too Ness

I hope it’s okay. You can use it as an AC or a humidifier or as a fan.
If you use it as a humidifier you have to place a large bucket next to it and drain the water if it is extremely humid in the flat. I will keep you up to date if it works well. It’s actually a Lidl brand. Hopefully they will have them in the UK soon again

Nibbles has had the happiest night ever he was in his playpen at 9.30 pm and I was surprised to see that he noticed the table had been removed and a big white thing was in its place
He had a great exercise and in between a snack and a nap in his little tent. After 3 hours I thought it’s bedtime, but Nibbles was not interested. He wanted a kitchen run. He ran first to the table in its new corner and was relieved to find out it was still scent marked, after that he made friends with the AC (that has been thoroughly marked too, then he had zoomies in the kitchen. I was lying on my blanket on the floor fighting to stay awake when he came running up to my face and sniffed my nose. He then made a nest in my hair and had a quick wash, scent marked my shoulder and off he zoomed again. His little face was pure joy
After two hours I managed to get him in his taxi (he frequently goes back to the pen for a run in the wheel or a snack) and now he’s tucked away in his nest after foraging all this treats and food. I am so happy he had such a nice evening and he seems to appreciate my efforts by being more affectionate and seeking my company I hope he has happy hamster dreams

Aw, beautiful Nibbles has a wonderful hammy home

 

[Socks' Mum]

Glad to know that all of the important things in Nibbles' life have been marked

It was so nice to see him having so much fun and when he zooms through the kitchen it looks like a giant black ball of fluff is floating, because you can’t see the pink feet in the dim light
And when he comes running up to my blanket and sits next to me I just can’t stop laughing. He’s so small but so full of character
