What an interesting morning!
I've been trying to make sure I give Blanco some enrichment in his hutch - yesterday I put in some wooden balls and made a toilet paper roll toy with food inside:

Today I put a tissue box in there.
HUGE mistake!
He ended up getting his head suck inside!
I am sooooo glad that I was home and noticed it right after it happened.

I can't imagine if this would have happened this weekend when we are away and our petsitter is visiting!
When I approached his cage to try to help him, he was running around like crazy and peeing EVERYWHERE. I mean, the entire downstairs of his hutch was covered in pee. When I finally got him to calm down a bit, the entire tissue box was soaking wet. That made it easier to get off, but then I noticed that there was plastic around his body (no wonder he was running around!) Silly me did not even notice that there was plastic at the top of the tissue box. Luckily I was able to calm him down completely and distract him with a carrot so I could cut off the plastic. I felt like a horrible mom, but I guess it is part of the learning process.

The rest of the day went well. I picked up some  PUL fabric from Joann's to line the bottom of the x-pen area (thank God for the 40% coupon!) It is the same waterproof stuff people use to make diapers. I clipped it on and it made cleaning up from playtime SO MUCH easier! I realized that I need to put a litter box in the x-pen area, too. Maybe he can learn to use that and keep the x-pen area clean. Oh, the things we learn as we go!

SO much easier to clean after playtime - plus its super cute fabric!
