| I've fostered many of these little guys of all ages and have found that some seniors are still very active while others have slowed down. Even with the teens, some are almost hyper while some have a totally kick back personality. I don't think you can really go by age with these sweeties.

| I think Emma settled down around a year, then a little more around 2. Milli will be 2 at the end of November...and hasn't settled down yet! It's just their personalities.

| Four and a half and still going strong here. She calmed down a little bit since she turned 1. Before that we couldn't let anyone besides us hold her cause she would wiggle and thrash to get down and explore. She's still adventurous and quick, but can also lay down and sleep anywhere, anytime.
