He’s already showing the dog-like characteristics too. Cuervo has always followed me around like a puppy, now I have two under my feet all the time.

[QUOTE=Kalhoun]  
I LOVE HIM.

And I like his name…I know a black dog named Bear.

We need a kitty smiley around here.

[QUOTE=Mr Bus Guy]  
I imagine **Swampy** is going to vote for that one…  
[/QUOTE]

Gahh! Perhaps a double-take animated smiley?  
Okay, calm down…you’re only **Swampy** elsewhere; here, **Swampbear** has dibs.

Okay, better now.  
He’s a gorgeous kitty! Be warned, though–that tail will get _every_where. Face, coffee…and if you’re laying naked on the bed, you might want to cover up.

[QUOTE=Mr Bus Guy]  
“I don’t like cats, but this one’s really nice, if I knew I’d get one like this…” The same line we always heard about Ernie, the Best Cat Ever, who was a Maine Coon also.

[/QUOTE]

That’s so funny - Olive gets that ALL the time, and she’s a Maine Coon mix as well.

Glad to hear Bear is doing well. 🙂
