Peek-A-Boo

I noticed Warhol was looking very white. I gave him a bath.  That's recommended to help them shed. When I took him out he ran up my sleeve. It was cute. I think he was just cold.  

I had trouble getting his tank door open one handed, and the boys were in school, so they couldn't help me. Mr. Warhol kind of flipped out inside my sleeve. He took his top jaw and bit me. I had a tiny horse shoe bite on my arm. 

No harm really. I think he was terrified because I was squirming around trying to get his tank open. He was tightly caught in my shirt. He did not draw blood. A few days after the bite happened I had some small itchy hives. They are gone now. 

Sure enough he shed right away. 

After that shed he was cute again. Here he is playing peek-a-boo.

  1. He is just the cutest. Allison has been trying to get me to buy one, but I told her I'd just send her to your house to play with yours LOL!

  3. My daughter loves non-traditional pets too. She's had these, hairless rats, and now a parrot (which isn't the same, I know but it kept coming to her door on the farm, so we think it belonged to someone, but no one claimed it after trying to find its owner, so now she keeps it in a huge cage and they get along so well). Her older daughter runs around now saying, 'hi cutie' because that's what the bird always says. :) Glad your little guy shed. Sorry you got the little bite. Guess he'd never been up a sleeve before, lolol :)
