Oooooooooo did Nibbles like his first brushing the other night! Using a toothbrush I let him sniff it first, wasn't that bothered, then started to gently brush his coat. He flinched a teeny tiny bit at first then just sat motionless, ears forward, and flattened his body a little while I groomed all over his back and his skirt and the back of his head behind and in between his ears! He sat there for a good minute or so and his coat was all soft afterwards and carefresh free! He only gets a little bit of the bedding on his longest skirt at the back (He doesn't have a real long coat, more just fluffy all over). But boy, was he nice and soft! I had to do the face rub afterwards LOL. I usualy give him a quick skirt brush when he first comes out for the evening now, esp if he has bedding in it, and a quick back scratch!
Another first for him was last night when he finally just took a rest in the crook of my elbow. I was wondering when he would first do this as he's always in such a hurry to explore and never normally sits still for 5 seconds! (My old Whiskey used to love sleeping on me a lot.) But finally he rested and we both just sat there for 5 minutes and bonded! lol.
I just love my Nibbles......... :D
