Default Re: Meet Monty

Monty is quite different from Gordon. I think when i got Monty i was still looking for Gordon.

Monty is lighter coloured and has a lot more white in his fur.
His personality is quite different as well and he jumped up the side of the tank trying to get out, possibly.

I made the unusual decision to take a Robo out of his habitat to see what happens. Now, Gordon would have given me angry squeaks because he did not like to come out of his tank.
The only safe way i could think of to transport a Robo is in a hamsterball so i got a small one, put some seeds in and lowered it in his tank. Monty sniffed and walked in so i let him out in the hamster playground but only for a very short time. Any squeaks or the slightest sign of fear or stress and i would have put him straight back in his tank.
Monty run around and sniffed everywhere with the ears up and not looking stressed at all which took me by surprise.

Maybe this is a one off because hamsters are naturally curious or maybe i have a Robo who is not as shy and timid as i had expected.
