Beaker has a "routine" when it is bedtime.
He flips upside down and grabs his boing with one foot while on his back resting upside down on his perch.
Then he uses my finger that he is holding onto with his other foot as a "chew toy", but he lets up when I tell him to "be gentle", our "safe phrase".
Last night after that routine, he let go of the boing and just wasn't going to let go of my finger, then hand.
I guess he just wanted head rubs and cuddles.
Anyway, he got to "burn it" for another hour and even got a jelly bean, which is one of his favorite treats.
I have learned to take advantage of the times he wants to "bond" as there isn't enough time...............
