Did You Know?

This is the European Hamster’s defence position.

When threatened they puff up their bodies, hiss, and stand on their hind legs. This posture makes them appear larger and more intimidating to potential predators.

Also: If you don't have money to buy my (or anyone's) books, and you live in the anglosphere, before you pirate them, try to get them from your local library instead. They have it or can get it, they pay for the books, and in many places writers get paid for their books being lent. Everyone wins!

Reeva being the perfect brunching dog, yesterday…well, until she almost tripped up the waitress. I apologised and the waitress said that it doesn’t matter as she’s so cute. Reeva’s new motto: Cuteness will get you everywhere 🧡
