That last pic is so sweet. How is his personality, shy or not? He doesn't look like he would be shy.

Barb ...actually he is very aggressive when first disturbed. Sometimes even while being sprayed both instances, he will make lunge forward with a little hiss.....Once up and about he is very friendly , and I'm lucky to have got him at a very early age to establish that "bond".
The one thing we see with any type animals and human interaction that tickles my fancy~ :shy:

I knew I would see Mr. Tyrone!
I had no idea a youngster would show any aggression. Hopefully he grow's to love you! As you said ; at least you got him as a baby. :)

Wow very nice and consensus is...love the last picture:) that is surprising to hear about the behavior. I do believe that early interaction plays a vital role in development and behavior for years to come.
