Mari keeps feeling more and more spiky the bigger and older she gets (she’s approaching 14 months) and I just want to know two things: 1. Why must my lizard slowly feel like a cheese grater and 2. Why must Mari wiggle her very spiky head right on the soft spot of my neck every night? ? like I wish her spikes would stop getting sharper with each shed. I guess you have to be a walking pin cushion to survive being dragged out from under things by goannas and dingos, but she’s starting to feel like a bearded dragon now and it’s kinda sad to see her little soft baby scales slowly become adult scales. (I’ve held adult beardies before and they are super spiky lol.) She’s still soft underneath and so I blow raspberries on her beard & stomach and she looks at me like I’m insane for doing that but her little triceratops spikes (she’s like a little triceratops) are super sharp and hurt my skin lol. I still let her snuggle regardless but dang, she can really shave my skin off with those.
Don’t worry, my sister has a hedgehog who is much worse (he is an angry boi) so Mari is nothing compared to him. It’s just sometimes her spikes get me just right and I’m like “oh boy.”
