So are you degus more cute or more naughty.
What are the cutest and naughtiest things they've done?
For ours, it's close but I think the cuteness wins.... Just
The cutest things they do is licking their fingers one by one when cleaning themselves and getting on their bellies to have a tickle when they're half asleep.
the haughtiest thing they've done so far is jumping from mine or husband's shoulders onto the floor regardless of the fact that there's a jack Russell down there ready to eat them.

The naughtiest . . . figuring out how to escape their cage and doing it not once, not twice, but four times, and then calling an alarm for over 2 hours from beneath a very heavy piece of furniture that we couldn't move!!! We had to find clips to use on the doors to keep them in, lol!
Cutest thing would be falling asleep inside my robe, belly up and enjoying a tickle from me at the same time.

Cutest was my 4 goos' sitting in a row on a branch talking to each other and then me and then all scratching with the back legs very funny. Naughtiest is chewing threw the aluminmum back vent and escaping into the lounge and then terrorising Chilli and Pepper in their cage for 2 hrs - playing good goo and bad goo - to say there was a abundance of poo in the room was an understatement - wipe your feet on the way out  |

The whole reason my two are cute is because they're naughty!! I do love the mischief they create.  The very cutest is when pepper lets me stroke her behind the ear and shuts her eyes cos she's enjoying it so much, sweeeet! Daisy just gets sooo excited to see me which is uber-cute. Naughty is when they chew the skirting boards, carpet, door, shoes, radiator......I could go on, lol. |

All of my degus are cute. Sammy, Dean, Damon and Layla couldn't do anything wrong! I have one monster named Stefan who is just full of naughty tricks. The naugtiest thing he does is chase/attack the sweeping brush when I'm doing a 'poop sweep' in the cages. He just won't leave the sweeping brush alone. So much so that I give in and use the vacuum. He does do cute things too. He can alomst do a trick for his treats. I'll post a video once he's got the hang of it! Elijah is by far the cutest! The cutest thing he does is, when he lifts his arm up for a tickle, I can get him to lift both arms up at the same time for a fuss.... he looks like a weight lifting super-degu showing off his muscles! He also 'talks' to me when I tickle behind his ears. He ears start twitching and from then on it's just constant chirping  He's also quite adamant about grooming me back. He'll grab my hand and sit on it in order to keep it in place while he grooms its, lol. I'm pretty sure he sees me as another degu because if I try to go near his food bowl or tickle him while he's eating, I get all kinds squeeky-abuse thrown my way. He'll litrally push my hand out of the way and give me a good telling off, lol. Grace - well, what can I say about Grace? She's just pure naugtiness. I think CUTE wins for me though. Even when they're naughty, they're cute! |

Naughty makes mine cute!
Naughty - stealing everything I am working with on my current project while they are out... My pencil (several times, it only has to be on the floor for 2seconds before its under the sofa!), wood, tools, paper, cardboard........ But the noise the pencil makes as it scuttles across the floor attached to Dega's teeth is just too funny to make me angry, as well as the cute little goo faces saying "awwwwww mum!!! We were eating that!" when I steal it back XP
Cute - if my knee is in the way of the tube while waiting for Thai to decide to come out, Dega pushes me out of the way =) She also pushes my finger away if I try tickling her when she is eating oats out of my hand ^____^

LOL!! I used to get such a kick out of watching our boys when we used to keep them in my daughters room. Being a kids room, they were ALWAYS finding treasures to haul off to their "out of cage nest." There was this one particular key fobb made out of pony beads that they seemed to covet above all else. We had so much fun frustrating them!!! We would put it on the floor across the way from their "nest" and wait for them to find it. Then suddenly there would be one of them, dragging it beside him in this strange crab style walk/leap. The fobb is about as big as their body so it wasn't the easiest thing to carry. Just before they would get to the bureau they hid under, we would grab the other end of the fobb and play tug of war. Once we got it back, we would then place it just a little way off and wait to see who would next try to steal it. They seemed to take turns. It was a lot of fun and laughter.

It certainly is when playing tug of war with the little monsters! XP But not so much when its a piece of wood that just took 10minutes to cut and sand to the exact size that is then left with a Degu teeth sized dint in one end XP lol

Awwwww indeed harpic01!!!! Oh that is the sweetest thing ever!! Degus are the best. You find me another animal that treats your hair as a treasure and maybe, just maybe it'll be as cute as a goo. (my cat sleeps with a paw on my nose so he's also pretty adorable tho  ) |
