Okay all you pudgy ferts,it's time to slim down for the summer.All of a
sudden your cage mates are noticing that the round shape of your tummy is
not your winter coat.Exercising can be fun too.The best time to start on
that dragging tummy is 3:00 AM.This is a quiet time in the house,and you'll
be able to concentrate much better without those noisy humans around.Do
some stretching first,by pulling that cage door open.You may jump down or
climb,if your escape hatch is higher up.Get going with some running up and
down the hall to work those leg muscles.Your nails clicking on the tiles or
wood floors will keep the rhythm for you.If this doesn't wake your human,
or you have carpeting,keep going,using the soda can with pennies.Chase that
can across the floor,making sure it bounces off the walls and doors.
 
Now that you've warmed up,you can work on some strength moves.Drag those
heavy boots around the room,making sure you bump them into things for that
extra aerobic tug.You may now move on to heavier objects,that 10 pound bag
of potatoes should do nicely.For the smaller ferts,you may drag one at a
time.Repititions are good for you.The farther you drag it,the better the
burn.Work,work,work,those leg and jaw muscles.
 
Now it's time for the tongue exercises.Climb up into your human's bed,and
first practice your slither,slither,nip technique.By this time your human
should be beginning to wonder what's going on,and soon you'll be resting in
your hammock again.Get in there and sit on your human's chest and do those
tongue licks.Noses,eyelids and ears are all good targets.Once your human
is fully awake,finish off your workout with a dance routine.This will also
have the advantage of keeping you out and about longer,as your human starts
their own workout to catch you.This method of exercise has been fuzzy
tested and approved.Just ask our human.
