I am very much afraid I'd have 'wobbled' over to the Humane Society IN PERSON to see that baby if I was interested in him...but that's me!
I know that volunteers at HS's don't have a lot of time, but in person they'd have no choice but to see me.
Did you, by any chance, check into becoming a 'foster parent' for the HS? You might have a better chance of getting that call...no guarantees...in this case at 7 months old, he is adoptable already. (My fosters never went back...lol) I am looking forward to your updates...I hope you get him.
