I will tell this since it did turn out funny for all to hear but may have not been so funny to me, with different results. About a month or so ago my snow male was going through a shed but had a bit of problem. I hate to not see it all off once they start it. So I began to help him. I always take them into the sink in the shower room and use the running water to moisten my hands and splash a little water where needed. He has always been good in the past to accept my help. I helped him with a little off a couple toes. OK. I helped him with a little strip off the tip of the tail. OK...... Then when I looked at his underside I noticed he didn't get it cleaned off the family jewels. So naturally I tried to help. I was holding him in my left hand belly facing me, probably 3 feet away. I moistened the area and started to roll the wet shed with my finger. He gave out a h-ll of a sound........And urinated all over me. I mean a real lengthy squirt, like a small garden hose........It hit just below my chin area soaking my tee shirt, but of course lucky for me his aim was low. Sure its funny to you guys either way.........but not to the pee-oner............yeah, I could laugh either way but maybe you wouldn't have heard the story if the outcome was different.........I didn't think they could do it like that........I wouldn't want to get in a contest for distance with him........take care.

If you've never been hit full bore in the face... you've never had a male human offspring. :)

It only happens with the first one though... after that, you learn a combination of keeping the goods covered, and amazing reflexes. ;)

Oh wow, I always give them a helping hand in getting bits of retained sheds off, but never got this sort of "reward", lol.
