ALL of my Pets!

I mentioned in my last post about my pets that it wasn’t featuring all of my pets… this time I will introduce all of my pets. First, of course, are more photos of Behr, Simba, and Grizzy because they are too cute. We try to get the animals to all play, Grizzy seems oblivious and just wants to walk around and lick things. Behr and Simba are more confused and hate Grizzy’s claws. Here Behr looks ready to say “Dad what the heck is that? Get it off me please!” Simba on the other hand wants to sniff him, because Simba has an innate need to smell everything, that is until Grizzy starts moving, then Simba wants him and his nails gone.

I could not help but take a ton of photos of Grizzy because he is still growing and his beard has become a beautiful bright orange that is so unusual and gorgeous. Therefore it had to be documented. And there’s Simba, all legs and meowing at us to put him down.

Finally the rest of my pets I keep mentioning. We have two Sugar Gliders, Kiwi and Gizmo. Sugar Gliders are marsupials who sleep in pouches and are nocturnal. When woken they are very active so getting good photos is difficult! It’s even harder when they jump at the camera because they love to jump and glide. Sugar Gliders bond to their owners by scent, ours are still bonding with us, as it can take a while, but they love to come out and play. Kiwi is the more shy of the two and it often takes her longer to come play and she startles more easily – she’s also easier to corral so most of these photos are of her. Gizmo is more adventurous and even more energetic easily alluding us.

They wouldn’t leave Alexis alone when we woke them up a little early this weekend. They kept trying to crawl up his shirt, which isn’t a pleasant experience with their claws, and cuddle but at the same time would not sit still!
