That was priceless!

It was warm (for both of us) but whenever I tried to turn over he'd lock all four sets of claws into my head, forcing me to keep still! <br /><br /><br />Henry,<br />Thanks for the encouragement. Hopefully I won't be driven into torpor by this weather.<br /><br /><br />Lil_Earthwoman,<br />I think I might start cultivating termites instead of mealworms, so my whole household can move into a mound. Perhaps I could even start exporting them...mainly mongoose (Lynda)https://www.blogger.com/profile/05917384766182752791noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-767913719381352936.post-30161642722467724852010-06-20T21:49:31.108+02:002010-06-20T21:49:31.108+02:00Thank you loads for the update, Lynda.

As for the strange disease some years ago, I heard that the Slender Mongooses (an associated project at the KMP) suffered from a strange disease too caused by mites, even at the same time. <br />However, your guys are really in great condition and I hope they will make it all in one piece through the harsh winter, a termite mound is like a fire place, wish I would have one too for us. <br />Oh, your Huskies are gorgeous, as much as your cats, and since we also have an artic summer here in Germany my cats are inside my bed aswell. The climate conditions are worse everywhere this year and this is scaring. 500 penguin babies(Spheniscus demersus) have died in two parks and there is no end in sight, another cold front was announced. So I hope you have loads of termite mounds on your study site.<br />Many hugs and keep each other warm!Lil_Earthwomanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08364224231811958467noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-767913719381352936.post-78307922259894514152010-06-20T08:57:33.471+02:002010-06-20T08:57:33.471+02:00Thanks for the great blog :) I always enjoy readin...Thanks for the great blog :) I always enjoy reading what's going on up there in your part of the world.
