Sand Bath

Somehow, we realized that Cookie was the smart one while Cupcake was the slow learner. Cookie learnt how to play the wheel first, how to use the sand bath and how to brake when playing the hamster ball.

Cupcake have to take some time to learn all these and one of the cutest and memorable moments of Cupcake learning was the sand bath. It took quite a long time for them to master the art of sand bathing because their furs were getting greasy. Cookie was the first one to be able to use it. However, Cupcake being a slow learner was not able to pick up on it yet.

We were urging Cupcake to try the sand bath since his fur was so greasy and oily compared to Cookie. Finally, Cupcake got into the sand bath but did not know how to utilize it.

Cupcake: What now?

My sis grabbed Cookie from the ground floor and put it into another sand bath. We kept saying "Come on Cookie, show Cupcake how to use the sandbath."

Cookie: That's not how you do it!

We knew that Cookie wouldn't understand what we said but somehow, Cookie was using the sand bath and showing it to Cupcake. Cupcake sat on his sand bath and watch how Cookie tumble around in the sand and then he tried doing it but fail. He was scared of lying flat on the sand somehow so he stopped.

It seems that Cookie got frustrated and decided to go over to Cupcake and push him down. Cookie was literally pinning him down with his/her little paws. It was so cute. After pinning Cupcake down, Cookie got back to his/her own sand bath and showed him again how to use the sand bath by rolling in it.

Finally, Cupcake managed to roll and tumble around in the sand bath. It was amazing seeing how Cookie taught Cupcake how to use the sand bath.
