What a scare...

It was a nice weekend back at the kampung. As usual, Lux would crawl into her carrier by herself for our trip back. It seems to be a natural thing for her now if her favourite blue cloth is inside there :) This trip, Lux was such a good girl. Just quietly enjoying her ride home, only doing her scratching claw business once throughout the journey unlike previous trips home where she was practically annoyed throughout the journey.

We reached home around 8 pm yesterday night, and the poor thing was quite tired from the trip. Immediately I let her out of her carrier and she hopped back into her cage and started eating the hay vigourously. I guess she must be very hungry. After a few hours I noticed, there was no poo or pee from her, and started to get worried but she was still busy enjoying her hay. I begin to wonder, all the eating and no poo? This doesn't look too good. Before I went to bed around midnight, I checked on her again, finished her hay and I had to put in more hay for her, but still no poo. I was getting very worried, I tried feeling her tummy to see whether it was bloated, cause that's what happened to Max previously (Max and Lux came together to my new home previously). Her tummy seems ok, not bloated at all. I decided to go to bed, but couldn't really sleep because of this. I woke up some time around 3 am to check on her. Any poo? Only 2!! Then I stroked her, and she just enjoyed the company and wanted to play. I was thinking to myself, are you ok or not?

Went back to sleep, and woke up around 6+ am, this time I heard some poo sound from the cage, and I felt relieved. I let her out for her usual morning run, and she was so happy running around and that was really a relief. Silly me, getting all worked out over this. Here's Lux, (these pictures were taken about 2 hours ago) feeling happy and relaxed, and posing for me :)
Feeling so lazy after dinner
