Wiggle - Day 41

A quite couple of days for Wiggle. On Monday afternoon we had some torrential rain and lots of loud thunder so Wiggle decided to stand in the doorway and bark. Maybe trying to scare the thunder away? Fortunately we managed to get our walks in without getting soaked.

Wiggle had a bit of a traumatic incident earlier - a moth attacked him! He was minding his own business, snoozing in his bed when something made his nose twitch. Next thing, he was wriggling around, trying to get away from the scary flying beastie until he admitted defeat and jumped from his bed and ran to the other side of the room. Once I had removed the moth, Wiggle wasn't convinced it was safe to get back in to bed so is now sleeping on the floor. Next to the bed.

Tomorrow Wiggle is off to see Bridget and get his skin checked. He'll be weighed and I'm hoping he has put on a little more weight. Even if he hasn't, he's doing well still, taking his meds and looking much better than when he arrived.

Wiggle, if you find a moth trying to attack you again, a word of advice from a pupster ... put the moth in your mouth! It will teach them that you are not to be messed with. It might feel a bit funny as they will flutter trying to get out.

Hold them there for a short while and then open your mouth. Not only will the moth learn not to attack you again, but you will scare your mother witless because a moth has just emerged from your mouth. Oh such fun!

Love,

M-M
