He's finally home! I picked him up from the SPCA earlier tonight. He is the friendliest little guy! When the shelter worker first brought him out, he was looking around and sniffing everything. He stayed quite alert the whole way home, but he did throw up in his carrier. I guess he gets car sick, the poor guy. I brought him in and put him in his enclosure, and within five minutes he was eating from my hand and playing with his toys. He showed me his visor a couple of times, but that was it - no rolling up in a ball or anything! He found his food and water dish, pooped and peed a little, went in and out of his little house... and then he found his wheel. He's been running on that thing nonstop for almost two hours! I'm afraid it's going to shake loose! :rofl: He's such a little doll - I'm so glad he's finally home with him. I tried to take some pictures, but most of them didn't turn out since he's so darn fast. Here are a couple of the better ones...

Showing his teddy bear who's boss.

Thanks everyone! I think he's pretty darn cute myself. I'll try to get some better pictures once he's more used to me. I accidentally woke him up this morning and got the full treatment - the visor and a combination huff/pop that really startled me! That's what I get for interrupting his beauty sleep, I guess. Funny little guy. :hearts:
