Hi from Dorset, rainy England

[aphex twin]

Hi all,

Just a little one to introduce myself and the bald baby abomination "Hermes"

In brief:

The abomination was a Christmas gift for my ex partner in 2007. We then came to one of those trial seperation conclusions at the beginning of 2009, where i decided to head out of London and base myself in the Dorset countryside. Maria moved into a rather small apartment and it was decided that it was only fair for the abomination to come and live with me in the wilderness - of which he now can't get enough of!!

Welcome to the forum! That is a great photo of Hermes leaping through the grass!! :Laugh:

 

[aphex twin]

Thanks! As soon as he gets out in the garden he hops around like a little nut! - i think it must be the grass tickling his belly or something..?

 

[aphex twin]

He really wasn't a happy camper back in London - He used to get so frustrated with the birds out on the roof he would do a bit of this..

 

[aphex twin]

And a lot of this..

 

[aphex twin]

But now that he's got all this wonderful countryside at his disposal..he seems to be doing a lot of this....

great pics and videos! Hermes and haji seem to have the same level of energy! Does Hermes make those clicking and chirping noises at birds? haji sits for HOURS in the window sill making friends with his outside companions.

Cheers for all the feedback!

Yeah, Hermes has this particular vocabulary:

Wa wow! - where are you? - come downstairs i wish to be fed - i've just done a number 2 and i'm letting you know etc

Trill! - i'm super happy and it's cool to see you - i'm a magpie and i've stolen something..like your pen again!!

Click click..chirp welp! - this fly is annoying me and i'll have it soon - these birds are more than interesting and if i could i'd be having them also!

Weeeeeee! - you've just told me off for misbehaving and i'm acknowledging you..but i'll carry on being a wee **** regardless

Funny, he would just spring onto the skylight window constantly..and it was quite a little jump over the stairs to get up - once he was up there it was a lot more tricky for him to get back down - he would almost do a back flip to return!

 

[aphex twin]

This one really cracks me up because it looks like photoshop - he's just hanging in the air...

 

[aphex twin]

So as you can see, when he goes outside he spends more time with his paws off the ground..!!

 

[aphex twin]

with the paw holding onto the rail like a wee man..

 

[Brooke]

He's quite a character! I love the photos of him outside - it looks like he has springs in his feet
