Francesca: Initial Training

Friday, November 2nd, 2007

Francesca, my southern flying squirrel, has indeed a voracious appetite. Luckily, in terms of waste management she is on her way to becoming potty trained.

This morning she managed to escape from her unlocked pet crate. The door was closed but not locked, and she somehow managed to open it. She had some diarrhea—to augment that, I added more powder to her milk solution, to make it thicker, while retaining the water. She was trying to crack a sunflower seed open, but all she managed to do is to perforate it.

Some more pictures, by Tori, of Francesca being hand-fed and a video of her crawling around my neck:
