Safety And Excitement

We brought him home from my mom's last night. She had found him wandering about her front yard last week and took him in because it was cold. No one else claimed him so we think that perhaps he was abandoned. We chose the name Radley for him. There's a free sno cone in it for you if you can name the novel.

He's adjusting well so far. We sat with him in the living room on the floor last night while we ate supper and now he thinks that that spot is the best, safest and most cozy spot in the whole house. He retreats back there when he isn't sure where else to go. To get him to want to sleep on his bed in the other room we sat there with him for a while too. He whined for a little while last night when we turned off the lights and left the room, but he calmed down and went to sleep soon.

We enclosed him in a room with all wood floors because he isn't completely potty trained yet. This morning when we woke up we were excited to see that he hadn't used the floor for a bathroom at all. He had, however, peed all over his bed as soon as he saw and heard us up. Evidently, he was excited as well.
