2 nights ago, I went to the pet store to get pet supplies for Guai Guai. Guai Guai and Yai Yai only like Xu Xu's original food . I can only get it in 1 particular store so far. I spotted Ching Ling (witty) out of 20+,30 hamsters. Didn't think about buying a new hamster till I saw him. It was love at first sight.
XU XU is wayyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy too smart for a hamster. Although this sad, I just realised that I expect all hamsters to be AS smart. The day I bought Yai Yai n Guai Guai, their home had been jammed with all kinds of furniture, tricks and games. Now I feel bad for them. They might just be confused and overwhelmed with a new home AND NOW????? A WHOLE ALIEN stuffs that who knows what's for what? Yai Yai was smart to learn toilet training n Bathing technique in a short time. In fact, she was really smart. Unfortunately, I kinda took it for granted since Xu Xu is even SMARTER. Guai Guai never succeeded to learn. I guess I owe it to myself sometimes... Now... she is not so Guai anymore.... Guess her personality changed as Yai Yai left her..... she is depressed and lonely. Poor Guai Guai.
So, I plan to make it simpler for Ching Ling. Everyday I took away different furniture out of his home. Took away his small house and the bath tub yesterday and the toilet today. I realised.... Xu Xu's home was not as fancy in the beginning.. So, he might have been more focused if not bored but thus, enabling him to focus on learning 1 new tricks each time. As I thought back.... I really spent so much time and attention and energy on Xu Xu in the beginning because he was the only one. But then.....when I bought two more... I had to take care of 3. Now. I am giving Ching Ling the training I used to train XU XU with. Hope he'll learn just as fast.
Yai Yai's departure thought me patience and love. I will always miss Yai Yai.
