I though I had already posted photos of Loki at the start of his cardboard tube demolition, but apparently not, so to go back to March, I was able to get a (few) cardboard tube from work, destined for the recycling, for Loki to play in. Photos from then: You can see in the second photo part of the banister rail in the foreground which is 1100mm high, so the tube was at least 1200mm, if not a little higher.   Today, the same tube looks like this, with a 300mm Loki for comparison:  The plastic bag around the bottom holds all the mulched up cardboard, ready for the compost.  Luckily, I have three more tubes downstairs.  |

Heartwarming to see the utter delight on his face at his handiwork.
I was just about to ask how much mess does the cardboard make (it's all over my avairy floor) but you answered at the bottom of the thread and have the plastic bag.

Such enjoyment for the little fellow. At least the tubes come cheap.  |

Most of the mess goes back into the tube, I am happy to say, clt80. there is some .... um ... spillage, but easy to sweep up and deposit back into the bag. |

I love the first pic of Loki’s tail just sticking out the top. I also think the collection bag idea at the bottom is inspired! Brilliant.

He should be pleased with himself after all that hard work. I'm impressed with his dedication to the tubes destruction.

He is dedicated, criswell; very! Since then, there is no tube left to poke out of the bag and I really think he is wondering what he does now. There is a perplexed look on his face when he goes over there and all he can find is this small scrap of tube ..... what happened to my tunnel?? He has left a piece all down one side, so I can use that to line his pvc pipe submarine. You will have to wait for photos of that. |

LOL! Make sure he doesn't find the bathroom toilet roll as when you come to use it you might find yourself spinning an orange Loki around when you reel off the paper!  |

No luck, Sam. He is a bit too big for a toilet roll, or paper towel roll, even though he does like to squeeze into smallish places ... but he does love chewing on them. |
