He can really go to town!

As for his "babies"... I monitor and watch him with them. He mostly tosses them around, rolls on them, and basically plays with himself with them. Very funny to watch him do this! He'll be running with a new baby (or piece of moss or twig - DORK! lol) and will drop it and act like "HEY! WHERE DID IT GO!?!?" Very cute. :)

Barrie - I used to let Gendur go to town on cardboard boxes, too! However, I got sick of picking up 80 trillion pieces of cardboard! lol Then he started to eat the cardboard.
Great idea - we have a butcher at the top of the street - will have to stop in there to see if they can help me out with this! Thanks!

I think we are done with cute little stuffed guys for right now. LOL We'll stick to the hard core chew toys for a bit. Thanks again for all the words of encouragement and adivce!
