Looking at Cinder this afternoon, she is up in her loft licking her paws. All 4 of them. Maybe they are itchy. Hope they are not raw and hurting. I love watching her and come quite often during the day to watch her. Thanks for caring for her so well during her re-cooperation.

Okay what is that running around the bottom of Cinder’s cage??? Looks like a mouse, but it could be a squirel?? It’s fast what ever it is.
Nice to see Cinders not distracted with it as she chewing on her Kong.

If it’s what I saw a few days ago, Chris, it’s a chipmunk… and a gutsy one at that! It went up the ramp where Cinder was napping and investigated her and three of her Kongs. On it’s way out she moved a little when it sniffed her again and it “flew” away… it was very funny to watch … I don’t think it climbed down it just appeared on the floor below and RAN!!

It’s kind of unfair to you sweet Cinder girl, getting you all used to those Kongs full of goodies that you LOVE soooo much!! Those won’t be around for you once you get back where you belong. I hope you mistake a beehive for a Kong after you’re back in the woods! I looks like your paws are coming right along and you’ll be ready to return to the Methow Valley fairly soon. I love that you’re still a wild bear and you give Dr Willits a hard time when he tries to give you a shot of that sleepy juice. I hope you have a long life and mother at least a couple litters of cubs. I know you’ll make a superb mother. Go be free and wild sweet girl!!

what… NO KONGS IN THE WOODS?
grrrrrrrr
how about grapes… YES??

Chris says:

Why yes, Cinder there is plenty of grapes baack here in Washington. Tastey wine grapes…..
But sorry, no kongs unless they let you take them with you when you are ready to be released back into the wild….

I meant to say “I hope you DON’T mistake a beehive for a Kong” I could never type worth a Bear Poop anyway!
