Timon And Pumbaa's Lunar New Year

My Timon and Pumbaa on the first day of the Chinese Lunar New Year!!!

It's the Year of The Rooster!!! 

But I prefer to call it The Year Of The Chicken!!! Just for fun!!! 

See my Timon and Pumbaa are cuddling the pink chick!!!

Something During My Turtles' Winter Sleep

As I am always claiming that animals have something!!! They have emotions and they can understand what human say or mean sometimes at least!!! 

Take my two not-so-little turtles as the example, they understand what I say to them and know what I mean!!! 

Though they are in their hibernation, they still have their paws/claws exercised sometimes!!! And I let them soak themselves in the water at several days interval for they may intake some water and wash something filthy out!!! 

Due to their current size and the basin available to them, they have to dip the water one by one!!! 

My preference let Timon go into the water first!!! 

After her, I found Pumbaa has already niched himself at the corner!!! 

It goes like this:"Would you like have a bath before your napping?" 

Pumbaa seems hear it and understand it!!! 

He showed himself, after a certain period of time due to the nature of turtle's reaction, and stretched out his head as if saying:"It's OK!!!" 

So Pumbaa got some water and back to his winter sleep along side Timon!!! 

They do get each other side by side at the corner!!! 

Sooo cute!!!

Timon And Pumbaa Are Wishing You A Happy New Year

It's the year of 2017 now!!!

On this very first day of the year 2017, my two super cute turtles, Timon and Pumbaa, are here wishing you a Happy New Year!!!

See, they get their new outlook today--a lovely knitten wool hat which is too big for their heads yet too small for their backs!!! 

Anyway, they wear it in style, don't they!!! 

 See, Pumbaa is so goodlooking in this little thing!!!

Check out how is Timon wearing it!!! Sooo adorable!!!

Timon And Pumbaa's Winter Solstice 2016

Timon and Pumbaa have stop in-taking food for about two months!!! But they are not quiet!!! 

They still explore almost every inch of the floor, say, at every two days interval!!! And they need water to moisture their internal organs! So after they suck into water, they set theirselves down for a while and then find a place to sleep, or, to put it in an actual way, to take a nap!!! 

Here is Timon with my little flower

Here is Pumbaa with my little flower 

Below are the pictures taken on the winter solstice day this year(2016)!!!

My Lovely Turtles Are Ready For Their Annual Winter Sleep

My lovely Chubby Turtles

My Timon and Pumbaa follow their rutine of life as usual!!! 

They eat! Most of the time their food is the shrimps, and sometimes they get minced meat as a special treat!!! 

Oh, when they are hungary, they fight for food!!! Timon will hold the shimp in her mouth the moment she gets it and peddle very swiftly as if her kind does this too to bring the food to a safe place to eat in the wild!!! The instinct founctions!!! It's in their DNA!!!

They sunbath! When the sunshine is not so scorching, they are quite enjoying it by their signature pose--the stretching back legs, or the "Plank" in Yoga language!!!

They  crawl/walk! Sometimes, after full meal and a little dose of napping, they just prisonbreak from their basin and crawl around exploring the surroundings by sniffing!!!

This is Timon who has grown into almost the same size as her male parter, Pumbaa!!!

This Pumbaa who has the darker colour than Timon does!!! And he always bite Timon's limbs when he is hungary or has the intention to rob food from Timon's mouth when driven by the instinct!!!

At this time of the year, they have already stopped eating and ready for their winter sleep or hibernation period!!!

And they have chubby limbs after a stuffed summer shimp-intake!!!
