Three cheers for little George

George the wombat that is....

My cockles are well and truly warmed.

I swear he's giggling when the keeper tickles his belly.

It does look that way, but it is probably the sort of submission display that weak animals adopt when in potentially dangerous contact with larger dominant ones.

[treeboy]

No, in my fluffy idealistic mind, he's giggling, and afterwards they're shooting off in kind Mr Keepers' space car to the planet of fun, to eat marshmallows. That's just how it is.

Not much to add but thought i should just show my face in this thread

I agree; I do the very same when I'm in Mrs SK's bad books. Then she says, 'I don't know what you find so funny about it', not realising it's merely my submissive display to a more dominant animal.

It's good to know your place SK. Makes for a more harmonius relationship.

Hello George, sorry if I made you do a double take

I might try this, but usually when I lie on my back, display my pale underparts and bare my teeth I'm after something else entirely, which might not go down too well if she's pissed off with me.
