Thread: How to make the "Big Black Bear" more friendly?

Elvis is pretty much the same way.

He wants to be at the party, but not the centerpiece of attention.

He'll sit by me all evening, but I get the stink-eye if I pick him up or otherwise disturb him.

When I pick him up and start to pet him, he starts wiggling after about ten seconds of it.

Recently, he's started to purr a bit before he starts to wiggle, though.

He'll be three in May and is finally starting to fill out. I can barely feel his ribs without pressing too hard.

I'm not sure what he weighs now. Seems like another couple of years until he's fully grown out.
