Prairie dogs “yahoo” for attention | Animal stories

[tabbycat]

The butt scratch with the tongue hanging out was epic.😊

That little expression with the butt scratch 😂
Omg. How hilariously cute. I can't cope 😂🐾💞💞

My brain can’t handle this level of sweetness

[elisekeeton]

I never knew prairie dogs showed this much SUCH SWEET LITTLE BABIES

[givemeoats]

They "Wahoo" not because they want to.



But because no one else will.

i read that they're extremely social creatures and require many hours of love and attention everyday from owners, if they are domesticated. they also benefit from having another friend to hang out with. i imagine they mostly thrive domestically living with people who have more than a typical amount of time to dedicate to them

My husband and I had one and we named him Buzzer, he was a joy to have around, and Yahoo all the time and we loved him very much. He is in animal heaven with all the other wonderful animals.

Much like genghis khan, big ounce has spread his genes all arround the world. Thank you for the gift of your progenie Big Ounce.

The fact that he's flat on his back sleeping, in the middle of the floor, def says they love their home.... toooo cute

These tiny critters are so sweet, I would fall in love with one in less than a second.

As someone who's parents owned 15 of these little buggers I have to say... they are indeed amazing pets. The phone would ring and we'd get a full house of barking. Walk in, and get a full round. The record was 17 barks out of one particularly happy squirrel, who missed us on vacation. As cute as they are, they are devious. I once got unwittingly blackmailed by a PD, who wanted some banana.

Its good you speak about them requiring LOTS of care.. otherwise lots of unprepared ppl be trying to get a prairie dog pet! Very very adorable❣️

The look of pure bliss during that butt scratch is PRICELESS 🥰❤😍

[unfortunsonny]

Oh sweet wampum, look at these precious creatures

[saltykrug]

That "yahoo" is so damned cute. Cowboy squirrels, I'm certain. Very cute but anything that likes that much attention is always a lot of work. Very rewarding but still work. Hats off to you!

I can admire their cuteness without owning one of my own.
