This cute young guy really
wanted attention, and was reach
ing out as far as he could through
the bars of his kennel and
sweet-talking all the while. When
the door was finally opened, he
took a step or two back in happy
disbelief (that’s when the photo
was taken) then rushed forward
purring and wanting to be held,
bupersweet, affectionate and
very social.
