So, my favorite hedgehog ever, Mr. Piggles, has been judiciously exercising and has been losing weight. I'm super happy! So now to add to my guilt, I had him and Coco outside, and I had him in the playpen and Coco roaming free while I was helping my parents with yard work. The playpen was half in the shade and half not, and I was pretty sure that it would slowly get more shaded. Twenty minutes later he had no shade and I went to move but he was already sweating up a storm and overheated. I felt and still feel terrible. What ifs keep running through my head. That being said if any of them did happen I would be beside myself....but anyways.
He was overheated but he perked up quite nicely and I gave him a bowl of water and a spot that is shaded all day and he played with his TP tube for a long time. *hug* He's been much more active lately, so I hope he keeps it up.
It's been nice relaxing after the semester's over, but with one incomplete hanging over my head I haven't really been able to relax. I've done everything but the assignment--I've reorganized my room, did laundry, went garbage picking at U of M (for a bookcase. Apparently the professional garbage pickers got there yesterday.), done dishes, cooked, cleaned the table, cleaned the living room, went home and helped out, and have been on the internet doing nothing productive. Spring classes started today so guess what I did? I started that work instead of my history assignment. *headtodesk* I don't understand why I do this to myself. Anyways, signing off to try to get started on the book report.
hedgies,
