Only this morning, after giving me ten minutes or so get over the alarm clock; I got the 'I'm wide awake and up for it' Sgt Major Crystal greeting. Coming into the world in such an animated fashion, was bit brutal for an old codger. I looked, 'one eyed' down to see this little person up on her hind legs, with both front legs held upright and pawing the air to be picked up. As I did this I got a huge kiss and then she dashed off, seemingly happy that she'd got me up.

Only hours before I'd learnt one of my cousins had died and consequently was feeling sad, so she seems to be empathetic as well as appealing! The only time she showed any resistance to our requests was during grooming and I firmly believe it was part game, part objection. This morning for the third day running Crystal behaved perfectly during 'Operation Sink'. She even stood with both front legs out on the work surface and held her head up; so I could brush her chest! Amazing co-operation, seemingly enjoying it too, by adopting the look that accompanies a successful 'ear scratching' session.

I couldn't believe this job is now over so fast, but it is
