Oh wow...Norris is sooooooo spoiled!!!!

I realized it last night...when Colin was feeding Norris out of the palm of his hand- Norris is getting spoiled rotten (it was adorable!!!) Colin was patting Norris upside the head and asking him if he was hungry- Norris just looked at him with those huge eyes and so Colin started hand feeding him all of his food to get him to eat Norris just LOVED the attention- while Colin was feeding him i was rubbing his back. Poor sweet fella deserves to be spoiled rotten tough What was funny was right after Colin finished hand feeding Norris he was like "Now Nikki, you know we're not keeping him right" ...i couldn't even fake it- man i grined from ear to ear and said "ok hun" lol yeah right!!! He's already got Colin hand feeding- who thinks Colin's stand is going to last??

Oh and to make matters more intersting- Norris has started WHINING at the top of his lungs everytime he realizes i've left the room and he's not with me.He did this last night 3 different times (i immediately got up because i thought he was in pain from the amputation- so the first time i gave him extra pain meds/etc) Second time i thought he had to go potty (he did,but he wasn't whining about that)....third time- i knew he just wanted attention So i wound up sleeping a little bit in the kitchen chair beside his crate last night Yeah he's turning into some spoiled little doggie i tell ya!!! He seems to be feeling a little better today too- he ate on his own and he seems to not be having as much trouble with the amputation site.

Hahahaha you are such a sucker!!!! Norris is a clever little doggie

Man... its amazing how they automatically know which buttons to push.... we're all such suckers aren't we?

yeah, i'm definitely a sucker....but man you should have seen him- he looked sooo pitiful and i felt aweful for him. i didn't mind one bit (except the whole getting up 3 times in the middle of the night when i was trying to sleep but i'm used to that from the foster kittens so that's not so bad.

Oh yeah- i swear- he knows if he wines mommy will come running to check on him. / especially while he has all those stitches-i'm soo worried he's going to mess them up. He can actually reach around (even with the e-collar on) to try and lick the incision site since the amputation was done soo high. I found that out this morning so i'm watching him like a hawk.

Awe, I am so glad Norris is doing so good so far And I love the fact that he has you guys so wrapped around his paws Norris is just a sweetie though and u are right he deserves to spoiled rotten !!!

oh yeah- we are definitely wrapped around his cute little fluffy paws and the paws of every other animal in this house yup i think we have "sucker" tattooed across our foreheads lol. he's sleeping in his crate right now and he's dreaming and moving his little front paws

It sounds like he is finally getting all the love he deserves. You and Colin are angels for taking him in.

awwww thankyou hun but i think norris is definitely the angel in this house he's such an inspiration too- he's been through the mill...but yet he always has a little doggy smile on his face and such a good temperment- he's a good example for all of us

Colin seriously thinks you won't keep him!?! Poor guy won't know what hit him!

I know I probably don't have to tell you this, but be careful how far you let the "you whine, I come running" go...you don't want it to become a major problem.

yeah your right- i am going to nip that in the bud. i normally NEVER do that (especially with my other foster animals) but the reason i did that last night is it was his first night home after the amputation. since i've never fostered an animal with an amputated limb before i didn't know what to expect so i was running to check on him with every whin or wimper thinking he must have been in pain/etc. (it was pitiful) / hehe and yeah- i really do hope colin lets me keep him / I just took my little hop-a-long outside for a walk a minute ago. he was enjoying sniffing all of the pretty flowers in the back yard He's such a sweetie. Right now he's laying down in the living room in front of meand is taking a little break from wearing his e-collar

Colin's a good guy. And I'm falling in long-distance love with Norris.

Congratulations!!!!!

Norris deserves all that love and attention! I think every one of us would be running at every little whine!

And with Colin feeding Norris out of the palm of his hand - Norris is HOME!

to you and Colin, and more tummy rubs to Norris!

Laurie

Hugs to you and Colin for taking such good care of Norris and LOTS of get better quickly vibes to Norris himself that he continues to recover.

Awww Nikki, he is in such good hands with you

Awww...I think Colin likes him just as much as you do! He just hasn't admitted it to himself yet! He's still in the denial stage! Norris is so blessed to have two wonderful people looking after him.

ok your my friend and all, but you do know, that reason he was hand feeding norris was he did not like the cooking?
hehe jsut a idea, of course it could be cause he likes him also hehe

I'm so glad Norris is home, whether Colin realizes it is his new home or not. I figure it will just happen...Colin: "what? Norris is going up for adoption?? I don't THINK so!!" He's already in love. Just don't tell him that yet

By the way, I just noticed your Norris siggy tonight, and I LOVE it! He looks so sweet!
