So... it looks like I have yet another trouble bun on my hands. I got bitten a couple times today.
Apparently it is bad for me to pick his poops up off the floor where he thoughtfully left them to mark my spare bedroom as his own.
When I run my hands on the floor, he charges and bites. He flinches when we move our hand straight at his head, so I've been doing it slowly, and every time I do, I make sure it's to give him head rubs which he loves, so I'm sure he'll get over that in time.
I smelled like Misty and Charlie when I went down to the room today and he spent about 5 minutes charging and grunting. uh oh. I thought my guys were going to be the trouble.... but maybe it will be Oliver.
So, because I am mean spirited... I brought down one of Misty and Charlie's used litter boxes and plunked it right smack in the middle of "his" territory.
After pooping in it for about 20 minutes, he calmed down.
Oh, and he sprayed pee on me and has been circling me.... this is how it starts, and I'm going to be humped for the next 2 months, I know it. I'm going to pretend he's 5 months when I take him to the vet. LOL. Honestly - he doesn't look 3 months, and the shelter said they *think* he's 3 months.... but I remember what Misty and Charlie looked like at 3 months, and he doesn't have that baby bunny look. He's definately under 6 months I would say, but older than 3. So maybe the vet will neuter him right away.
