I Was Just Wondering: Have you ever wanted to hibernate?

Sleeping for an extended period seems like a pretty good way to pass the time, says Finn the Griffon

Finn the Griffon thinks hibernation sounds nice, but a bit too complicated having to navigate eating and relieving one’s self while taking an extended nap.

Have you ever wondered about hibernating? Imagine ... 

Bears, raccoons and chipmunks hibernate, since I don't see them around here in the wintertime.

Squirrels are another story altogether!

With the colder, darker days, I have been actively practicing sleeping … a lot.  I keep waking up since I need to eat and I need to do my business. So hibernation is clearly a more complicated process than just sleeping.  

To fall asleep and wake up months later does seem a little drastic, even for me, so maybe long naps continue to be the best option for me.

Have you ever wanted to hibernate? 

“I Was Just Wondering” is a Sunday feature on Sudbury.com from Finn, a Brussels griffon breed of dog, and his “mom”, Jaana Pirnes. Come back next week to see what Finn is up to. Got a question for Finn? You can email him at [email protected].
