Me time with the mongoose

It was finally my time with the mongoose so I stepped inside the enclosure and Katarina pulled down the lid. It wasn't as relaxed at first with me as it was quickly with Katarina. It did eventually sit on my lap and curl up for a moment but seemed more interested in nibbling at fingers so I had to keep them firmly tucked into my arm pits. A couple of times it surprised me climbing up to my hands and having a go. Mongoose time was perhaps not for me.
