My pet friends

When I was a kid I could never have a dog, because my Dad was allergic to them. I actually never had a pet as a kid except for a turtle. That was the best my Dad could do. There was a phase when all the neighbors kids had turtles.  Believe it or not, at times they would run away. So all the kids painted their backs with a patch of colour or something to tell them apart when found.

Later on I had some dutch bunnies, guinea pigs, gerbils, degus and of course hamsters. Digger was my first hamster and he had the run of our apartment most evenings.  He didn't do any damage.  Just stacking things in various places.  Once he disappeared in the wall of the apartment building.  I was very upset and could here him in the wall.  He wouldn't come out.  I sat there beside his cage and waited forever. Then I thought of luring him back out with his favourite treat.  Cheese Whiz.  I put his cage by the hole in the wall.   After another hour or so at about 4 in the morning here came Digger.  Dusty and dirty, but otherwise just fine.  Right for the Cheese Whiz he went.  He was with us for quite a few years.

However, a dog was always my dream. They are truly man's best friend. Boy can we ever learn from them.
