on a scale of 1 to 10, how spoilt is Popsicle?
« on: August 16, 2014, 04:02:17 AM »

oh dear oh dear... my little fella is so like a little kid lol...

During playtime, he wants me to interact with him, not just read something while occasionally cuddling him.

If he feels satisfied, he eventually goes back into his cage, and I give him a rose hip as a treat.

If he doesn't feel satisfied, he goes back into his cage, and SULKS. If I offer him a rose hip, he ignores it! ... there are 2 ways to get him to take his treat at this point:
1. Just put it next to him and go away. He will eat it while I have my back turned, and pretend it disappeared. (as if I'm deaf! Rose hips are crunchy lol)
2. If I tickle and scractch him and tell him how much I love him for a few minutes, he will stop sulking and when I reoffer the rose hip he will sort of grudgingly accept it.

...
Oh dear oh dear, lol...

I'm not sure. My spoiled chinchilla meter is pegged so it must be off the scale.

Yeah, I threw it together in Blender. I'm a 3-d illustrator by trade. It was a fun project and I'm glad you like it.

It's AWESOME.

... Well, Popsicle protests, and insists that you've calibrated it wrongly. But what does he know, his brain is the size of a peanut.

"SQUEEEK!!!! A Very Very Large Peanut!!!"

... I stand corrected, his brain is the size of a very large peanut.

"SQUEEK."
