Dreams really do come true. There is a rotten, buggy tree stump in the house! Gonna have fun tonight.Neighbor does landscaping and it was in his trailer so we asked and he let us have it. Grampa chopped it in half so it'd fit through to door so really I got half a stump but still cool.
Feb 15th 2AM Really enjoying my buggy tree stump The camera didn't save the photos of me on the stump last night but here is Ori
Clawing at a tree stump
Did you bring treats?
Feb 16th
11AM Up for ketchup!
11:30AM Having some breakfast.
11:45AM Okay back to bed but I made mom give me some ants for desert first.
12:37PM Ori has been up clawing the stump and had a few ants and is now grooming.
1PMShe went back to bed after grooming.
Feb 17tH 1 AM and I Ori, Aurora and I just got up. Mom was mumbling something about us being lazy.
1:28AM Nap time!
Ori plays with the parrot toy
She broke one of the wood rings off.
You might notice I got linoleum on the shelf now. Yea for easy clean.
10:22AM Up having breakfast
10:34AM Wouldn't go back to bed till I got some ants.
3:49PM Some people came to see my royal self today. I said hi and took them on a lovely stroll in the woods. I was a bit annoyed when they didn't want to be done when I was. They seemed to like Ori better but someone has to be the court jester or maybe we could call her the press liaison.
Blanket house
We had guests and no way to get the pee pad house looking nice so this worked. The inside is clean they have only been peeing on the roof.
Thinking of trying a house made from a giant rubber maid so I only need to change bedding and not wash a whole house.
Ori getting comfy
So on the walk today someone asked if I was a ferret. Then when told anteater he goes "oh an aardvark" See I told you. *Points to what people think anteaters are photo from yesterday*
Feb 11th
12:47AM I got up around midnight, had my ketchup and turned in for a nap in my hammock. Not moving yet. Aurora too had her breakfast and treat then turned back in. We gotta pace ourselves.
1:12AM Okay, finally up. Joined the others in the big hammock for some play.
1:37PM Ori got up so I abducted her to see the great outdoors. She was less than thrilled but it's good for her. I saw the new neighbors out so brought her over there to say hi. Then she headed back to the yard. She decided it wasn't so bad and explored the back yard all over and under the shed then came back in and went and hid behind her momma in the fabric house. ~ Pua's Mommy
5:25PM Patched the holes in the walls from little claws hope they don't tear it all out before I can paint it tomorrow. ~ Pua's mommy.
Yummy Avocado
Excuse me Pua
You're in the way
Blue cheese
Quasi and Hyzzie
Sleeping, there's no wrong way to do it
Day Dreaming
Happy in her princess hammock
Feb 12th
12:38AM Had my snack, checked out the new log, had a drink, in my hammock for a bit Ori was poking about on the tower under me, so I joined her.
10:30AM Mom was pouring me some ants and goes "Oops I gave too much" Silly that's not possible. So some anteater just pulled the patch out of the closet wall and the rest are intact. Time to start painting, it's also laundry day. ~ Pua's mommy
Feb 13th
12:40AM OMG the washer broke and wouldn't drain water. Mom took the laundry out and ran the spin cycle like a dozen times so now it's dry and I can sleep there but Grampa might try fixing it tomorrow, so could get ousted to the hammock anyway. Last time it happened was due to a little stuffed animal trapped in the works.
PS I hung my head out the side of the hammock watching the washer till she finally stopped the spinning. I knew something was up. I need my bedroom dry and in working order
12PM So after mom giving grampa two choices for after breakfast activity of fix the washer or buy one, we now have one ordered. They said Saturday or Monday. Going to be a BIG laundry pile. I'm not sure if I like the idea of a new apartment or not. We'll see. Mom better save my toy out of the old one.
My favorite toy is the fabric dispenser
I play with it and sometimes sleep with it
Feb 14th 1:06AM My princess hammock is back. Happily napping away in it after my ketchup. Aurora and Ori are playing in the closet.
We stopped at "Buck's" small motor repair. Public appearances go best when Pua is still sleepy.
Pretty Pua
Once she woke she she was on a mission. Looking for a pee place.
Nice garden
Don't think I want to pee here
Side garden
No bushes too pee in here
No room behind the rocks
Here's a nice secluded place...
... to pee I would have stopped her but she said go ahead and let her and she'd just hose it off. Animal people are nice. She was surprised by how much pee came out of Pua though.
By the front garden.
Sleepy Pua
Clinging to the seat
She wasn't sure this might not be another trick and be at someone's place again.
Going for a hike
This is more like it.
I love trees
Digging in a hallow tree
Sniffing and licking
Under a fallen tree
This hole was too small to fit
Till I made it big enough.
Barf!
I didn't mean to capture this. I didn't know it was coming. It's sort of a once in a lifetime sort of shot though.
She swallowed too much wood dust and got over heated. A dunk in the river and she was fine.
Some species like rats and horses are not capable of vomiting so a person might wonder if an anteater can or how they do it with that long snout and small mouth. Well, now you know.
She has a sensitive tummy when it comes to stuff. Though not a common occurrence, learned to mostly avoid the stuff, too much dirt, wood dust, fiber in her food, or even eating too many ants. Oh and pet hair used to do it as she was tonguey/mouthy when young and licked it up.
Ori's plenty tonguey but hasn't ever puked.
Oh and I was surprised at the volume. She hadn't drank anything. They don't have stomach acid but they sure must produce a lot of enzymatic juices.
After a dunk in the river
It didn't capture well due to the flash but her rump was really golden orangish.
Another rotten stump
Tiny mushroom
It was the size of a bb.
Nap time
Pua dug herself a sleep nest down inside the stump. She kinda looks like a dead thing but maybe that's the idea. Predators wont wanna eat that.
Dirty girl
After pulling her out of the stump she tried to climb grandma's leg to get to her carry bag. I let her in and carried her home.
Half done grooming
Mess left after grooming some of the wood dust out of her fur.
