Today I saw snow for the first time ever! Being a sloth, and more geared up for the rainforests of South America, I borrowed a hat and scarf from a woolly snowman, wrapped up warm and ventured into the garden. It was what the humans call 'a very light dusting' of snow so not really enough to build a snow sloth! Can you spot three other types of animal in the picture?
We ran around in the snow to make some footprints and keep warm:
Later I went on my first day trip with my new found family. We took a car ride to the local wildlife trust centre, where we...
Fed ducks
Enjoyed some of my natural habitat (trees!)
and admired some of the amazing sculptures!
Charlotte and I had some fun on the swing:
Then we had lunch at the garden centre
It was a fantastic day and I look forward to many more like it!
Now for the first of my amazing facts about sloths
My story begins on 25th December 2014, after many months on a shop shelf, followed by several weeks in a dark cupboard, I found myself in a Christmas stocking. It was warm and cosy in front of the wood burner, but all I longed for was a friend.
Then a young girl called Charlotte rushed excitedly into the room and picked me up and held me in her arms. I was so happy to know she was my new owner. I had a great first day in my new home, with my adoptive family.
We played games, pulled crackers and had a delicious dinner.
I am going to have many adventures with my new family and I will be using my blog to tell you all about them and all about sloths and how you can help them in the wild.
