Hi all...Maximus has been very clingy for the last week..I took him to work with me on Monday and since my bf had to go to the doctor yesterday he dropped him off at work with me again yesterday...the thing is Maximus doesn't only want to be in the same room with me he wants to be on top of me...yesterday he didn't want to eat his food for fear I would get up???..he would take a piece out and come back to me to pick him up..he would chew then squirm to get down get another piece..etc., etc.,..last night when we got home..he went to say hi to my bf and then immediately wanted to lay on my stomach..no playing or anything..he justed wanted to cuddle..he ate dinner the same way as lunch..so I called the vet last night and he said that as long as he is eating and he doesn't seem uncomortable it could just be that he is tired, teething and the hot weather oculd of just tired him out more easily...so fine this morning he woke me up at 5:48 went to poop, I cleaned it up and went to lay back down..at which time I usually see the ears jumping over the side of my bed because it's playtime..well he just cried to get picked up and then curled in my armpit and went back to sleep ..THE DAY I HAVE BEEN WAITING FOR...and I couldn't go back to sleep because now I am worried..so I let him sleep and I wake him up at 6:30 so that I can get ready for work..we go through the same food episode for breakfast and when he is done he curls up on my lap and goes back to sleep..it's is now 7:30 and I have to go in the shower so I bring his bed in and I go in..and he is okay..but as soon as I get out he again wants to be held..he keep sitting in front of me to pick him up..I go to the living room and sit with him for 20 minutes before i have to leave...and again he falls asleep..is this normal?..I got nervous..my bf is usually home with him on weds..but he had to go to work for an hour this morning..but now he said that he is sleeping in my comforter..do you think this is normal behavior?..does he have some sort of seperation anxiety?..he is only alone for maybe 18-20 hours the whole week (3 days a week for 6 hrs. a day broken up from 9-12 and then 1-4)..or can it just be teething..I am getting worried and I am considering going to the vet tonight..but I don't want to stress him out if this is normal..because as soon as he sees the vet he goes a little loco
