Progress (alternative spelling: "progress")

Fjerten was a total wimp last night. I tried to give her some rolled oats, but she wasn't having any of it. In fact she freaked out enough to actually climb to the second level of her cage. She normally doesn't climb. She appears to prefer using the tunnel.

Today, however, is another day and just now she took a vegetable snack from my fingers. Ok, so she was "hiding" in her tunnel at the time and I held the snack in front of her little face, but it still counts! She didn't run away, after all.

(As it happens, both the little ones are big fans of this particular vegetable snack. I like to pretend that it's good for them, veggies and all... ;-) )

Hm, yes, but you see, dwarf hamsters are prone to diabetes, so shouldn't feed them too much fruit or sugary stuffs. Which they love, of course. Shouldn't feed any animals too much of anything, but especially not these ones... So I'm glad they enjoy their veggie snacks!
