For Christmas, m y wife bought Hammer a little bed for him to lay on in the kitchen. He likes to be in there with her when she cooks, but was always smack in the middle of the floor.

And he loved it ... For about four hours. Christmas afternoon, I was taking my daughters outside to play with the new Nerf guns, and the six year old accidentally shot Hammer in the foot while he was laying on the bed.

After that, Hammer refused to lay on the bed. He kept going over and sniffing it, but wouldn’t get on it.

Finally, my wife took the bed away, and put down the towel he’s laying on in the top shot. Where he now spends hours each day.

Apparently Hammer does not blame my child for shooting him ... It was CLEARLY the bed's fault.

If there were nerf guns when I was six, I’d of probably claimed it was an accident also.

Lol. Most animals learn by association.

Like if they get a treat for ringing a bell, they ring the bell and expect a treat, even if they don’t get a treat each time, they still associate the bell with getting a treat because they did the first time.

Will he sleep on the blanket if it is still on top of the bed?

But that face!

Mumu did something similar. We got him a second bed, and he never used it. My mom talked about getting rid of it, and a few minutes later there he is, laying on the bed.

I’m afraid for my life now.
