Anatole's young age allows him to bond faster with his fosterer. He may be startled and afraid of new environments and new people. Extra patience is needed to help him get used to his furever home. Only interact with him when he's looking for you or you could face the wrath of his teeth, which is capable of drawing blood. DO NOT interact from him when he's sleeping / just woke up from his sleep as he is the grouchiest during these times.
Handsome Anatole is a tiny but growing boy. He is the brightest hammo ever. When he first came under foster, he had no idea what a sunflower seed is. Open one for him to taste and the next time he smells one he's running after it. Anatole would love his new family to provide him with new foods to try and he will easily fall in love with the treats. He is a treat motivated hammo and this could help him bond faster with you!
