Didja see it? Didja? A spot on the horizon, it’s coming closer! Who could it be? Oh my, should I sound the alarm? Maybe it’s Joy with a delivery though. OH what to do? I stand here with my comrades keeping watch over the gang, and you know if I sound the alarm one more time by mistake cousin Beta will laugh until bugs come out her nose. I do take my sentry job very seriously, there are so many things to be careful of to keep my family safe! I think I’ll just give a warning bark and see when who’s coming to visit!

Wheel racingWhen you are small enough that major predators just take pity on you, and you can’t see as far as the mirror you are trying to recognise yourself in, familiar well-worn paths are all you ever venture on, and then you go as fast as you can to make sure nobody spots you before you spot them, because you can’t see them anyway …
The only safe way for tiny rodents and other miniature four-legged creatures to compete with one another is to go nowhere fast. Once the word leaked out about hamster wheels, everypet from geckos to beavers liked the idea. So now the big event for small creatures is wheel racing. If you have never heard about it, that’s because you were too big to notice!
