Finally! I am home and boy Isis sure was happy to see me. When I went over and called her she literally bolted and was grasping the cage bars and following me.

Thing was...she would act like she's digging and then kick up more carefresh with her hind legs. This was when my hand was in the cage playing with her. What the heck was up with that? Agression? Happiness? Instinct? Thanks in advance for an explanation!

Glad you're back with Isis. Bet you were as happy as she was to be back with her. I'd kick up my heels and throw around a little Care Fresh if my mama just came back after being gone. I'm thinking it was an excited thing of some sort.

I've had my boys get so excited to see me that when I put my hand in the cage they climb all over it and start chewing on me like they can't get enough mama on them or in them! Like I'm dinner or something yummy they just discovered. One of them will do that thing where they drag the teeth across your skin so they take off the top layer. UGH! I have scars on my right hand from him doing that. I know he's just tasting me, but man, IT HURTS! I try not to yank my hand back too fast cuz it'll only make the wound bigger.

That was my first thought too. She's just happy to see you again.
