Merlin versus the swede

**cazmanian_minx** · 05-Dec-10, 20:38

My fields are icy slopes at the moment, so I've been trying to keep Merlin amused in his field shelter / stable. Bought him a Likit, he was spectacularly unimpressed and ignored it completely. Half a swede, however...

I've got three whole ones now, no edges for him to get hold of, so should be hours of ear wiggling and face pulling for him

Haha merlin - was looking for a funny picture to share with you here of Merlin but couldn't find it on my photobucket.

A had had him stay at mine a few winters ago and I had done a total clean out of all the bed and had taken Merlin and the others in while they were on holiday with all beds banked up to work with them . Merlin got fed up and pulled himself a snug bed and just had a wee lay down - looked so lovely!!

Sounds like him - he likes an easy life! If you do find the photo I'd love to see it.

Ha ha looks like great fun and what a wonderful way to keep Merlin occupied when he is confined.

Ha, the whole neep has got him totally foxed - in 30 minutes he managed to get one small bite of it (and whacked me on the head with it three times as I was mucking out around him which he seemed to enjoy as a game!).
