One Track Mind
Do men really have a single track mind?
Scratch men.
Males.
Favouritism
Cookie was forced to spend a few days with my in-laws when we went on our holiday.
I was told that unfortunately Cookie is male, as Lego (the reigning golden retriever) is also male and hates male dogs.
Lego, however, allows female dogs to eat from his bowl.
I told The Chosen One that unless I bring Cookie for a sex change operation, we now have to worry about Lego killing Cookie and not puppies.
True enough, when Lego finally ascertained that Cookie is a male, he went all barking mad and refused to make friends with Cookie after that.
Cookie, being the stupid dog that he was, still happily tried to play with Lego.
We brought them both out for a walk together and Lego ignored Cookie the whole time.
On the other hand, I can confirm Lego is not gay.
Caught in the act
Going to the bathroom, I heard this "Squeak! Squeak! Squeak!" coming out from Isaiah's room.
Since the door was open and the room was dark, I switched on the light and peeped inside.
Weird, the 2 hedgehogs were in the same tank.
They were stuck side by side and going around in circles.
It looked like one was bent on sticking close to the other and the other was bent on getting away.
And one of them was making the squeaking noise but I couldn't figure out which one.
A quick call to Isaiah to confirm that they were not supposed to be together, The Chosen One grabbed a hankie to remove one of them from the tank.
Hedgehogs are very prickly creatures and they poke through hankies.
The Chosen One grabbed one and we think that was the male.
Because when deposited in his own tank, he was running frantically up and down the tank, jumping the sides and squeaking non stop.
Maybe he was scolding us for preventing him from having a good time?
The female one stayed in one spot and got pricklier than usual.
According to Isaiah, the female will squeak when the male is around. After separating them, the male will squeak in anger.
By the time we finished separating the tanks so that they were not side by side, the male hedgehog was attempting to jump out of the tank.
The power of love.
Or should I say...sex?
