Yes Lou I think the ginger hair is normal...Lou has patches here and there - more where he has lost hair (I think his dust mite allergy causes him to lose hair wherever his body regularly touches carpet) and then he gets a thinner growth of ginger tinged fur /love/ ...like others have said I guess Blue needs his energy to keep getting better ...and of course to maintain his stair flying and general mischievousness :-s: Always a star.

Glad the ABs appear to be working. My horse had a shaved patch for medical purposes and her hair grew back a different colour, but after two coat changes it blended in again. /love/ to all.

:clap: Blue is absolutely full of beans today. He was so eager to get down to breakfast he just walked into the baby gate at the top of the stairs and tried to barge his way through it :shock:

He also decided that he had to poo at the top of the garden today up all those stairs :| As I was clearing up Mr & Mrs's poo Blue decided he couldn't be arsed waiting for me to escort him back down so made his own way, including on the paved stairs that I hate him doing alone.

He is such a lovely guy and we are blessed that he came into our lives :-s: I just wish he didn't look so tiny :(

He does sound so lovely. Not a chance, but I would just love to meet him. /love/ I'm not alone, he's building up quite a following on Facebook. :lol:

I just wish he didn't look so tiny :(

He'll get there, slowly but surely. :-s:

He certainly is and I love the fact that most of his friends are nothing to do with me :-]

Just goes to show you: He doesn't FEEL tiny! He feels good! He's getting on with his life and getting better and better at managing his environment.
Just be careful not to leave anything hard or sharp in a new place and he'll navigate his known world with no trouble.
New territory would need to be learned, but I dare say he'll manage that if you ever do move house.
Funny how life works out? if you'd moved when you wanted to, he wouldn't have known his way around half so well?

:clap: Inca was in a very playful mood jumping all over him, he was responding back by chewing her face :mrgreen:

She's gone back to bed now :sleep:

I'm thinking of renaming him 'Bouncer' :rwl:

The downstairs journey maybe tough but I wouldn't have it any other way. It's wonderful that he obviously feels so well and has no fear of being blind /love/
