I have just caught Hugo being a boy..  I'll never be able to look at him the same way again. The girl's didn't look too shocked either! |

Welcome to the delightful world of the boy goo... I don't believe it about Hugo though, he just looks too sweet and innocent. Maybe all those lovely girly goos pushed him over the edge? |

Well he was on top of one of the girls, so I told him to get off. So he did, then sat down next to her and carried on himself.
I'm in shock! Must be the pressure of living with 5 girls..

LOL! I remember my reaction when I first saw one of my boys doing that! I was like "GET OFF IT, LEAVE IT ALONE.... EWEEE, PLEASE STOP IT!"  |

I thought I'd prepared myself for it after hearing everyone else's stories...but I was just like 'what the.....are you doing?!.....Oh.....Eeeew, Hugo!'

Oh dingle!! Lol, lol, lol. I'm sorry I'm just about crying with laughter reading this!  I guess the neutering hasn't gotten rid of his 'natural urges'! I don't believe it either, Hugo is too sweet and lovely to be doing such things.  |

It's worse when you walk in to the room to find all three males likewise involved.

LOL!!! Yeah . . . kind of hard to get past the shock of that initial image, isn't it? I'm just thankful that I didn't have the experience of one of our members . . . can't rightly remember who it was. Anyway, they had guests over for a lovely dinner, and mid-meal, one of their very new degus discovered his . . . need to clean himself. So there he sat, at the front of the cage, when he was observed by all the innocent humans.
This would be one very persuasive reason to NOT have a cage full of male degus near guests that are dining. LOL!

I'm a little worried because they are going to my Dads for their holidays next weekend and my little sister (she is 11) is going to be looking after them!
Do I warn them or just pretend it never happened....

LOL! Well . . . you may want to warn your parents at least, and perhaps prepare a method or means they can use to explain said behavior. I think there are really only two ways to look at it, though. Self-pleasuring . . . or thorough cleansing. I personally would opt for the later. LOL!

Hugo is neutered? So, where is the problem? 2 of my boys enjoy being boy (all of course neutered) quite regularly... I would even say that the ladies force them to do these things... Don't worry... it's just about one day every 3-4 weeks per lady (seems my do it especially in spring and autumn)... having this pleasure about every half an hour ... It's worse when the boy is crying out that he had done it... THIS is really annoying... and my little boys enjoy as well these cries ;D ;D ;D!! We observed that since we introduced the boys, the ladies have been more relaxed and much less bitchy during these days. |

Awe, yeah that is well and truly gross! I think my 4 boys might have reached this 'adolecent' stage too, their room has been decidedly tense over the past few weeks...and I caught Milton having a thorough cleansing session last week after a fight with 1 of the others! I think I'd rather refer to it as thorough cleansing as well because it doesn't look all that pleasurable with those teeth! |

One of my boys, Scrat, quite likes to do this. Its very off putting. Gerrard however is too much of a gent to ever to it in my presence. I've got to say that, I respect his selt control. ha
Dirty Scrat doesn't care and he always makes the barking sound after. eww
