Thanks, I guess I really needed to hear that. I've been stressing over our newest addition and probably driving it crazy in the process. It's so different from every other critter I've had to just leave it totally alone, but it's probably breathing a sigh of relief now!

Thanks also for the strike descriptions posted here. Everything posted, I saw. Not the first time around -- was being too careless/trusting and wasn't even watching BP when I was tapped (as soft as a cotton ball... maybe it's younger than 6 months?) -- but after that I saw it do everything mentioned here.

BTW, that lamp dimmer sticky is so clearly explained, thanks!
