Thank you! I hope he does! In reality he is probably all over it, investigating it and thinking to himself "this smells all wrong, where is MY small shelf!!!"
Thankfully he is fairly easy going, I guess some self confidence comes along with age and size. He takes small changes like that in stride. It takes him a day or two of moving around and checking out every square inch of anything new, then he's cool with it
The shelf needed an update. The old one didn't go all the way into the corner, so it had a large gap and part of his body would slide into the gap. Last time I had him out I noticed a red line on his belly. At first I freaked out, but then I realized it was from laying on that edge of the gap. The red line disappeared within minutes but you betcha my butt was on the way to the hardware store that very same day! Can't have this happening to my big boy !!!
