#Furkid Friday: Joshua The #Degu's Letter To #SantaPaws

Dear Santa Paws,

I've been a very good degu this year. I'm even trying really hard to trust the human caretakers again, and almost let the Mummy human pick me up several times. The trouble is, the thing I most want for Christmas is something the human caretakers say you can't bring me, and - since you didn't bring it when it was what I wanted last Christmas too - I'm going to have to take their word for it.

The thing I most want is to have my brothers back. I miss them so much. I try to be happy, and there are times when having the cage to myself is great. But mostly I miss my brothers. I especially miss them on cold nights when we would have been curled up in our nesting box together. The human caretakers make sure I have plenty of hay to snuggle with, especially when the weather gets cold like it has been lately, but it's just not the same.

Like I said, that's the thing I want most of all. Apparently you only deal in nibbles and toys though. So, since you can't bring me what I want most, I'll be happy with whatever nibbles and new toys you want to bring me. Just please, Santa Paws, don't forget your little degu Buddy.

Squeak soon,
Joshua
