Timetable so far:
7am, ready for breakfast as usual. Mum gave half-rations just to see how the day went...
9am, collecting dry dead dock sticks for nest. Mum brought fresh bright barley straw; nice enough but it's not dry dead dock sticks.
11am, ok so turns out that barley straw is good stuff, busy building nest.
12:30pm, having a lie down in my beautiful big nest. Mum came for a cuddle, that was nice. We've never had a cuddle in the ark before, I always run out to meet her and flop down in the mud at her feet if I want a tummy rub.
1:30pm, got no energy for getting up, breathing heavily (mind I've got my snout under a half a tonne of fresh bright barley straw...)
2:30pm, Mum squirted milk from my titties and told me I was very clever. I'm pretty uncomfortable and restless but it's nice Mum keeps popping in.
