Default Mr Snuggles

Hi all
I wanted to created a thread to follow the adventures of our wonderful Mr Snuggles (aka Custard's Scooter) so here it is. I hope you enjoy. I'm getting to grips with uploading photos so please forgive any initial hiccups - please feel free to offer any tips with this.

So here is his initial set up. I'm sure over time it'll be rearranged and added to but for now he seems to be happy in here. I've chosen Megazorb substrate as it's easily available to me and I've used it before in rabbit litter trays with great results. He has varying depths throughout - I've not done it as deep as some as I want to be able to keep an eye but I'm happy with the depth as is for now. He has two tunnels, two bending bridges, a cut out box house and a lovely log cabin. He's got a yummy sugar free gnaw stick too but we are going to limit his time with this for now to ensure he eats his real food.

His home is the Ferplast Duna Multy. I love this as it has such a large opening at the top and it gives you free range to change the set up as you wish.



On the journey across Yorkshire he settled nicely in his carry case. We chose the Aladino as it has plenty of room and good ventilation.

It was so lovely to meet Soufflé and we thank her so much for entrusting us with her baby boy. She really has given them the best possible start and I send a hundred thankyous for that.

He’s so lovely!!! Does he like the treat bar, then? Mushu has had his for weeks but hasn’t even made a dent in it yet.

Mr Snuggles is a good size for 5 weeks, too. And his colour is so pretty - I mean handsome.

He's 6 and a half weeks now but yes he's a good size.
He's nibbled at it but it's quite hard so it's taking him some time, which is good.

Last night was his second night at home and we got him out for a little wander in our hallway as it's a nice secure area. My son is recovering from an op so had his duvet downstairs so he brought that through to sit on - it made for a fun playground for Mr Snuggles..... thankfully no hammie wee wee accidents.

Mr Snuggles looks very comfy and cosy there I'm sure he'll be helping to make your little boy feel better after his op, hope he gets better soon
