Hope everything was alright when you got home last night, how did things progress? Got home and caught pumba. Sat with him for TWO hours to figure out how he was escaping. The little turd was climbing up and really clinging on so he could force himself between the top of the playpen and the shrink wrap we’d put over the top really tightly to then squeeze up and over and crawl down the outside. We fixed it and I woke up and he’s still in the playpen muahaha, plan foiled. Did a little introduction last night. Pumba seems fine with Pickle, no signs of aggression etc and Pickle was okay to begin with. Ended with lots of leg lifting from Pickle and teeth chattering because he kept trying to mount her and she wasn’t having it and I could tell she was getting peed off so I took her out. She wasn’t trying to mount him though so I feel this could be a long process.

Just did an intro cos Pumba had escaped again.
I just don’t get Pickle. I’ll upload the video once it’s uploaded to YouTube. She shoves her butt in his face but won’t let him hump her and then gets real angry.

How long does it take for them to furball, or are they still doing that?

That's exactly what Sherlock does when he and Watson have a tiff it's actually a defensive move when you look at it carefully as bum is presented but right up in the air rather than a relaxed position. I've always just read it as a dominance move of blocking and also taunting as they always push it right in their faces as if to say "Go on! I dare ya!" Watson always just used to do a run by leg "inappropriate word" and urine on him in response Edit: my inappropriate word began with a c, ends in a k, and wasn't at all inappropriate for the intended meaning silly filters

Do you think if Pumba completely ignores the butt dance and walks off, Pickles would get bored of it and pipe down? Is it only when Pumba attempts a mount that it kicks off? Hopefully he works this out if he wants a peaceful life lol

Hopefully he works this out if he wants a peaceful life lol He does walk off and she follows him. Stupid lil mite just wants a fight lol! Pumba has escaped overnight again. So I’ve just taken the playpen down and given him the room 🙄
