what does this mean.. not seen it before

[minkymagicmouse]

my minky has got his new cage and he has a wheel he can use , he loves it and spending a lot of time in it like he loves to do in his ball, but i noticed his tail is sticking right up high pretty much pointing to the sky, he seems to have a massive smile on his face too, is this showing hes happy and pleased ?

Sounds like he is scenting it carmines tail goes up in the air and he rubs his hips along the side of the wheel it looks very amusing

This may be a silly question, but are you sure Minky is a boy? as that the tail straight up in the air sounds like something the girls do! but I've known my boys to do a lot of scenting and rubbing too.

he often goes round rubbing his cage, but yesterday when he was in his wheel the tail was pointing up and he seemed to grin a tun . and like you said i thought it was just ladies who did that.

aww that sounds funny.. minky LOVES the camera some of the pics i have of him, though he lets me know when hes had enough.

Random question - what size is his wheel?

[minkymagicmouse]

not sure it is rather large though,

[StarlightSerenity]

'Large' is subjective lol. Measure it :) Or, do you know the name of it? Is it the one that came with the Mini Duna (the cage in the pic looks like one but I've not had coffee yet so it could be anything lol)?
