Foster #3

I know, I skipped foster #2.  He came to us a rather chunky boy, very quiet, not interactive.  Everyone in the household but me fell in love with him.  Within two weeks, I was over ruled and Winslow became a part of our zoo.  Winnie the Pooh and I have worked out our kinks and I'm nuts about him now and love when he jumps back in bed after his early morning walkies and gives me big kisses.

So, Paul and I have become official Col. Potter "foster flunkies."  We couldn't be happier.

Then a call came in November about a little boy Cairn, 2 years old, whose elderly owner couldn't keep him.  Now we have foster #3, a very tiny Cairn who is the spitting image & personality of our dear Sainted Riley, our very first Cairn, who went to Rainbow Bridge in 2006 at the unbelievable age of 22.  This little fellow, known as Tadich, has his own issues but to see him is to love him.  I think we are in deep do-do with this one!   Again, he fits in beautifully but our two other boy Cairns are rather jealous, especially 1 year old Boo Radley. The new foster is actually very amusing since he looks like a Radley mini-me.  Even though he is just under 3 years old and loves to play with toys and some with Radley, he is not quite active enough to give Radley the workout he wants.  Still, Bad Rad loves this little guy, as we all do. Besides, Boo Radley has his two zooming girl Cairn friends, Joey & Amtrak, to wear him out!
