Degu: gotta exploar
Me: but does it always have to be with your mouth?
Degu: gotta taste everything
Degu: by the way, did you know you’ve got a hole in your trousers?
Daniel says the human training is going well
If a degu in the hand is worth 2 in the cage, how many is a degu in a hand in the cage worth?
How did you get a degu? Where? They are no where near me (I try to get animals from breeders or as rescues) also I love your account and I just found out about it :)
Thank you 🙂 I’ve found my guys from people rehoming them online. The websites I’ve found my degus on were preloved, pets4homes and a facebook rehoming group. I’ve tried local shelters, I think when I first got degus they didn’t have any and when I’ve looked since they haven’t had the right sex, the same goes for the rehoming section in pet shops in my area. The most recent time I’ve gotten more degus I really tried to find a breeder and didn’t have any luck finding anyone within a reasonable distance. Pets at Home (the UK chain pet shop) sometimes has degus, but less so recently.
First you groom the degu, then the degu grooms you!
The degus have discovered that the hammock has a Secret Pocket
Degu: hmmm you don’t smell of me
Me: no, I’m wearing clean clothes
Degu: that’s ok, I can fix it
Me: no, really, that’s not necessary
Degu: *pees on me* sorted!
Me: … that wasn’t even my first pair of socks for the day
Just hanging out
Silly Degu
