Hoka's Mom

So, Hoka (5 year old Russian), has some funny habits and I am wondering if others do too....
1. He has a pile of rocks that he dutifully has to climb up and down several times every morning (like he is getting in his steps for the day)
2. He has decided to try flying. He recently started climbing as high as he can get, pauses with his legs over the edge, looks up and down and around (as if taking a survey of the area) then just pushes off the edge! He usually falls on his face into the bedding and it hasn't stopped him from trying! My husband was worried so he pushed bedding up to make a hill so that he would fall...Hoka climbed up, looked right at the hill, turned around and went back down. The next morning, he had dug away the hill!
3. If we move something while he is asleep, when he wakes up he always does a double take and then just has to go check out the change. Every time.
4. I don't know how he can breathe under all his bedding but he loves to dig tunnels under everything. It is no use making his area pretty as he drags bowls around and burrows up under his shelters. More gofer than tortoise!?
Anyone else?
