aww he is a little cutie

Hehe, he is when you finally see his face. very baby faced though, bless him.

i love his little panda eyes

Hehe. He just sits there, after huffing, just looking and blinking thos little eyes at you. And he can wiggle his little ears independently. Hehe. Makes me laugh!

awwww, is he settling in...?

Yeah, he's under his hedgie bag on my lap at the moment. Huffing each time I move, but he's getting there. .

Bless him, he will come on in leaps and bounds given time - this poor little one came into our rescue in a barred cage, sawdust in the bottom and just a piece of cloth to hide/sleep under - was such a shame to see him when he was handed in to me - Mel has done a fab job and with her help, Fiona and Iori will have a live of hoggie happiness together. xx

. Do you think maybe the people who had him took him from his mum before he was old enough? Was thinking about the squeaking he does, and he had his quill at Mel's. Has such a little baby face too, and wondering if maybe he hadn't had chance to learn to not do it as he got older or something. Well, he's probably just a different little boy really. . Such a sweetie. Not doing the squeaking so much now. Little bit last night, and his funny little teeth chatter noise, and a little squeaking on his wheel which was quite soft and stopped after a bit. Such a funny little soul.xx

I personally think he was got on a whim - his owner left him with her flat mates as she moved to london and he didn't go with her and they by their own admission didn't do a lot with him as they didn't know what they had to do - hence he came to us x

Oh poor little baby boy. Who could just leave him like that. . He's so lovely. Hope she has a horrible time in london! Would serve her right! Grrr.x

very cute. And fab he now has a great forever home.

he is gawjuss .... and he has a wonderful new mommy x

Aww, thanks ladies. Had him in his tunnel on my knee earlier. Was letting me stroke his bum stuck out the back of the tunnel. Felt him flattening out and little legs sticking our backwards, hehe. Started falling asleep myself though, so had to put him back. Baby steps, but we're getting there. . Still huffing and hissing everytime I moved though.

Oh bless him he's just a little shy boy. Time and patience Fiona, you know what you are doing and I'm sure your confidence in each other will shine through soon.

xoxox

Aww, yeah, we're definitely getting there. . Thanks to your rehabilitation of him as much as anything too. .
Got a cute photo on my niece's knee:

What a lovely little blondie.

Hugs

He just needs a little reassurance that he's safe n' sound and he'll come out of his prickles more often I think he must be getting used to your smells by now xx


xoxox

Aww, yeah, think so. Had his little bum stuck out of his tunnel on my knee the other night and his legs stuck out, and he was standing on my niece's knee looking over at me yesterday. Tonight he snuggled into my hooded jacket. He's coming round. .xx

Aww, my nephew Aidan said Emo had to get used to us and Iori just has to as well, and he'll like us when he gets used to us. aww. Emo really seemed to like Aidan. Was the only person he seemed to really come out for and try to get to.

Bless his little prickle self x

. Iori was being very naugty last night. After his huffing for a bit, and while I had him out in bed (as he had been curled up in the middle of his viv floor, so got him out) he started pottering about on me, then just made a beeline for my armpit. Huffing and going mad like Emo used to. I think I need to change my soap or deodorant or something, haha. Reminded me of Emo though, and when I told him off he stopped and looked up at me, then after a moment, when he thought I wasn't paying attention, he dived back down. . Put him in in the end, as he was being so naughty, haha.

Aww, think Iori is really enjoying playing with his toys, bless him. . Keep finding his banana bear lying down, his cardboard tube upturned, his mouse moved and his little play balls moved around. (no idea how to talk about those without it sounding hilariously rude!).
Sweet to see him having fun with his toys. glad I gave him some of Emo's now.

Aww, last night had him out while watching tv, lying under my chest. He was huffing at first, but slowly slowly stretched a bit more and a bit more, so his little back legs were sticking out and even saw a little pokey tail. hehe. Seemed rather upset when I put him back. I was falling asleep though, so was the best thing, but he sat squeaking for a bit when I let him go in. Aww.
Was getting his wheel this morning, and thought I'll tip the dead skin off the tunnel while I'm doing it, into the litter tray. Fortunately felt the top of the tunnel first, as there was much huffing and hissing. Haha. And a little lump in the middle. seems he spent the night in there, hehe. So cute. :)x

He sounds wonderful.
