Thank you for all of the kind comments. To say that I am excited would be a major understatement. He's doing fantastic in foster so far, except that i have been informed that he is "an extremely messy drinker" and I might want to ensure there is a sizable rug under the water bowl. I also received an update this morning that he is "determined to follow through on his ideas" when it comes to getting on people beds, so he is working on that. He is showing complete indifference to the cats and is enjoying playing with stuffies. Ooh, I can hardly wait! Collars and coats have been ordered! (although I haven't heard back from NancyB yet).
