Pre-Stripes & Pre-Curls

Before I knew he would be striped and grow soft curls.
I believe Milo is about 8 weeks old here..

The first day we met he was not shy coming out of this wicker basket carrier.  The breeder met up with me at a vintage store in St. Josephs as I was not allowed at the actual breeder's site.  When we started our roadtrip, he didn't want to be in the carrier and mee-lowed for me to hold him; so I took him out and let him curl up in my sweatshirt pocket.  He looked quietly at me for a long time and eventually he fell asleep until we reached the slow traffic in Chicago.  He was observant when awake and pretty well-behaved but only because he was so curious about everything.  He had no curls nor sign of stripes at this point and resembled a weird piece of raw chicken.  It was strange at first, but not gross.  He already had a lot of personality from day one.
