my boy was terribly lonely without his companions, so we searched for new ones. we were able to locate two brothers in a litter of rescue babies, fortunately, and by june we welcomed fort and monty into our family.
fort started out as a bold little nibbler, and monty seemed a shy and timid creature, but now both are growing fast and tolerating petting and scritches even from me. at just a few months old they are much more active than what we had become used to with the girls in their advanced age, but we are getting accustomed to their ravenous appetite and relentless nighttime wrestling and squeaking each other (a bulbous fort usually stepping on top of monty's head).
it's good to have these boys with us.
