Update on Popcorn

Popcorn is doing great. He got neutered with 5 months old in October and was a bit whiny in the evening when we got him home but just playful and his old self the next morning. He never licked or bit his incision so all was good.

I tried to trim his nails with a dremel (I use it for the boxers) but Popcorn was still to freaked out by the sound of it so I just cut his nails. But yesterday I tried to trim his nails again and he was fine with it! He did not love it and was kind of avoiding me in sitting up and pushing his weight against me, looking into the other direction but let me do my thing! He got a big belly rub afterwards!

This night he threw up or pooped in his cage so he needed to get a bath before 6 a.m. already and he was fine getting a bath, too! The last time he got a bath (in the summer) in the sink down in the utility room he was quite squirmy and tried to jump out of the sink but today he even sat down in the kid's bath tub and just let me do my thing. He was soo good! And now he's all shiny and good smelly and the fur is so soft and fluffy...got to love it! What a good 6 months old boy! Oh, and he's potty trained since 4 months old so all is good....








PS: At his neuter appointment he weighted in a whooping 20 pounds! Even Bobo was only weighting 16 pounds! Wuckel is for sure a big and heavy boy!
