Introducing Kepler :)

This is Kepler, our soon to be home, 5 month old CAG (DNA'd male). He's almost done being weaned, and I can't wait for him to be home with us!

So far he's very compliant when it comes to stepping up, but he's wary of hands and has bitten (broken skin, but nothing terribly bad) my husband a few times, but only when tried to be pet upon. I've been allowed to pet and snuggle him a few times but he is still getting to know us, so just working on talking to him sweetly and holding toys for him to nibble. We visit him a couple times a week, so hopefully it won't be too bad of a shock when he gets home.

Here's my new baby :)

You will have so much fun with him. Every day you will see his personality develop. Keep us posted on his progress with lots of pictures too.

I'll definitely go camera happy when he's finally home, lol. As of now I'm having a good time looking for fun toys to decorate his cage with! I love those dark eyes too... :D
