I have now had Kelloggs 2 1/2 weeks and he is settling in well. First time i handled him he was (understandably) very skittish. On Saturday when i handled him, he was content to sit on my hand and then go wandering up my arm.

He is still not too happy about being picked up most of the time but i am amazed how much more calm he is in just a couple of weeks.

I am starting to get to grips with looking after him, although still making mistakes. Last time i fed him, i was waving the pinkie in front of him and accidently bopped him on the head with it twice. It was a miricle he was hungry after that

Thanks for all the advice given - Kelloggs appreciates it too :)

Great to hear that you and Kelloggs are settling in so well together. We all have a lot to learn still and also make mistakes, so you are not alone! xxx

Skittish kind of means nervously moving about/agitated. Thats how i was using the word anyways. I am sure there is a better definition of the word.
