Your comms help me spoil little guys like this rotten btw
Video id: Patella, a black and white mouse sits in my hand and gets scritches from my thumb. I pull my thumb away for a second and he stretches out to follow it. I concede and return to petting his head, and he nestles his chin back into the crook or my finger contentedly /end id
This is Patella, he's the mouse i'm fostering through @tinywhiskersanimalrescue here and on instagram. He also has several brothers also available through the rescue. They provide shelter for hamsters, gerbils, rats, guinea pigs, ferrets, and i think one chinchilla(?). Theyre located in Minnesota if youd like to donate, volunteer or adopt :3!
Continuing the theme of questionable hamster intelligence, here's Penny trying to eat a carrot that's on the other side of a wooden barrier.
(she did eventually figure out that if she walked outside, thus placing herself on the same side of the hideout as the carrot, she could place the carrot in her mouth quite easily)
