Today’s silly degu: Tobias

He got a piece of puffed rice stuck on his front teeth, he was tilting his head back and pawing at his mouth but couldn’t get it off, so I gave him a hand.

Or the way Tobias tells it:

I was trying to eat some food and I nearly had it but then the Mean Human picked me up and- hey! food! – anyway, I’m not really sure why the human picked me up, they didn’t hold me long though.
