Oreo the Persian/Maine Coon Cat!


From the description box:

Oreo was born on October 23, 2022. We welcomed him home one day last January as my sister Celia’s Christmas gift to my children/her nephews and niece. Oreo’s father is a Maine Coon, and his mother is a Persian cat. I’ll post videos of Oreo at least once a month. Please like the video and subscribe to my channel for updates on our Oreo. (I have other contents aside from Oreo though.)

On hedgehogs and mortality

Finally got a partner for Hog our female hedgehog, about two months after Hedge died. (Naming pets is easy, when you choose to make it simple.)

So they'll mate and Hog will have babies again, whom she'll immediately eat after giving birth to them...unless we're fast enough. Month after month a litter of dead bloody spiky newborns litter their cage's wood shavings bedding. Sometimes, without a trace. Or with only one little detached leg, resting neath a chip of wood.

Again, my children and I will bear witness to regular grim reminders of a universal truth, a monthly affirmation of an a priori knowledge: All mammals are mortal. 

And some of us even get eaten right after birth.

(And, you guessed it right, we named our Hog's new partner "Hedge 2.")
