Trust.

He didn’t let the pup fall the first time, and so the pup did not hesitate to trust the second time. I love this.

this is way too cute

One of my rats act like this. Thor. He gets super fussy if I try to pick him up. But if I just wait by the cage he’ll hop onto my leg all by himself. Then he goes back and forth between me and the cage.

I also think my other rat, Loki, knows I’m a bit over protective because I caught him whenever he’d try to climb up something and fall off. So now he’s a little cocky like “Pfft, Dad will catch me.”
