When I first got the rescue degus they would run and hide every time I walked in to the room, now they’re so used to me checking on them they don’t always bother to even lift their heads.

In between these two extremes, when they still all got on, they would lie in a huddle and when I entered the room The Huddle would lift it’s 4 heads, go ‘oh it’s just you’, and settle it’s heads down again.
