ie, like i did this weekend, he does fine. BUT, he acts like the wild bunny of the west when i get back! not only that, but he looks all frazzled. like, apparently, after i am not there overnight he starts shedding copiously and by the time i get back he is covered in these big chunks of hair falling out! it makes me said. and he acts all crazed like he is terrified of me and he goes nuts! but when i take him with me, he has 'butt' problems.
