Still Sleeping!

[Cherie]

This is Spike's first year of total burmation. It is almost April and he still hasn't fully woke up yet. He stays mostly under his log and either has his eyes closed, or will wake up for a little while and go back to sleep. The weather in Tennessee has been really crappy for what is suppose to be spring. Cloudy, cold, rainy. We might get a day in the upper 60's if we are lucky. do you think this could be why he has not woken up yet? I can't wait for it to warm up so I can take him outside.

Soooo, still wondering if it normal that Spike is still sleeping? Can anyone tell me?

 

[Esther19]

I don't know whether or not it is normal. However, my Buster slept for 6 months, starting the end of August. The past week he's wanted to sleep again one or two days a week, too. I'm sorry I can't answer your question, but at least you know that you are not alone.

Thank you, Esther19. That is what Spike has started to do. I will come home from work and he would be half awake, then in no time he is back asleep! The next day wide awake. They know how to push our buttons! :?

Deuce went down the third week in Sept. and has been down until 3 days ago...and I'm not sure he wont go back down again!

 

[Cherie]

Thank you Esther and Kcarello. I feel better knowing it's not just me.

MIne went down in early february and is still sleeping. This is the first time so I am not sure what to expect. I assume him will get up when he is ready??

 

[Cherie]

Spike is finally up and about! They sure know how to show you that they are in charge.

 

[Esther19]

Yay! Don't be surprised if he still wants to sleep a day or two a week for a few weeks. I was sure puzzled by that.
