Hello everyone! This is Sarah. How are you?

I hope you're enjoying the autumn leaves!

Recently, something exciting happened in my life.

I got a new pet! He's a degu (デグー). His name is Daewoo.

Have you heard of degus? They're small animals, like hamsters

or mice. They're soft and they have long furry tails. They're from

Chile in South America.

At first I didn't know much about degus, but I'm learning more

every day.

After getting Daewoo, I realized that he's really smart.

His intelligence is similar to a three year old child or a dog.

He can remember words and sounds and he learns very fast.　

I also found out that degus are really friendly. He never bites, and

he likes to play and cuddle.

Every morning, he eats breakfast on my shoulder.

I give him food by hand.

Taking care of a pet is difficult.

Daewoo needs a lot of attention to be happy.

I have to play with him every morning and every evening.

Also, he needs to be in a warm room or he'll get sick.

In the first week, he caught a cold because the temperature was low in my

apartment, so now I keep his room over 20℃ all the time, and I bought a small animal heater for his bedroom.

Although it's difficult to take care of him, I love Daewoo very much!

He's so cute. The good thing about degus is that they're easy to train and they communicate with humans well.

You can have a great relationship with a pet degu.

If you have questions about my degu, please ask me any time!

I'm happy to talk about him.

Enjoy your week!
