Mittens: Eats Himself Out of House & Home

The house on the left? That’s Mittens’ new sleeping quarters. The one on the right… well, that is what’s left of the old one, after about five months of constant nibbling, gnawing, and chewing his way through it. The other day I heard him making his loud squeak noises, the kind he makes when he wants something, and there he was, looking grumpy under a caved in roof.

New house. Old house. And yes, it really is the same exact model house. Who knows what Mittens did with the little pieces of wood that made up the wall on the old house. All I know, is that there was never any sign of them. I can’t wait to see how long it takes him to devour his way through this new one.

Enjoy it while it lasts Mittens.
Note: that little bridge under the cage used to be really bright and colorful. He took care of that with nibbling too. *sigh* see Mittens? This is why we don’t have nice things.
Ugh, your blog makes my cute gland have seizures. ♥

Is Mittens’ poo made of rainbows?

Yeah, just wait awhile for him to poop out the rest of the house.
P.S. I am going to be featured at Valley Forge Beef and Ale Saturday night at 9pm. Why don’t you, your girlfriend and some of your friends come out for a night of comedy, wings and beer?

It goes in one end and out the other. Speaking of Chinchillas eating stuff, Chena has just about devoured her hammock It won’t hang from the cage anymore. Her house is beginning to look like the old house that Mittens had.

Moo Bunny eats the wall…the real wall. Sheetrock.
I’m deciding not to tell my landlord.
