Shadrach Posted April 1, 2015 Author Report Posted April 1, 2015 You guys are hilarious! About the photo and the subject: His name is Simon. He was estimated to be just 10 weeks old when he was found by the side of a country road in a closed Rubbermaid storage container sometime in June of 2013. My wife and I took him in just before we were married, so he is kind of like a first child...except that I vow not to spoil my first real child nearly as much. We were in cruise Westbound at 4,500msl over Western MD.. It was a little choppy the day of the flight, which is why he has his toes wrapped around the yoke like a "3 toed sloth". After an initial period of apprehension he was amazingly comfortable in the plane. I have another shot of him looking out the side window, his expression is oddly human (I know, I know, everyone anthropomorphizes their pets). He stood there on the yoke for several minutes staring out the windscreen, then over at me in the left seat, then back out the windscreen. He has flown with us a number of times; he tolerates it quite well. Oddly, he can be a bit nervous and unsettled in the car (but seems to enjoy riding in Roadsters with the top down). 2 Quote
