What a great photo with your daughter gently holding the new pet!

I so hope he lives and grows and thrives and gets as big and ornery as Bob. :p

Good luck, and read and research all you can--this site will tell you all you need to know to keep little Puck healthy and lively. :D

Oh, how Puck reminds me of my Mortimer when he came. I had the most fun thinking of all the ways I could make him a Happy and Healthy member of our family. I'm sure you will find a wealth of info here, as I did as a "new mom". Take each step as it comes and READ--READ--and READ some more. Congrats

no, I got her from the captive bred wildlife foundation in arizona.

my daughter loves her. And my inlaws are so smitten they want to get one now. My mother inlaw was so excited and said "its like a dog that won't mess up my allergies"

Congrats. They are captivating little babies, that's for sure. Just making sure you know they grow up to be destructive, giant monsters. I love my monsters.

Congrats on your new addition! He's ADORABLE! I love the name "Puck" :)
The picture of your daughter holding him is adorable.
That's great that the family has already fallen in love with him! I can tell he'll be spoiled ;)
