Thanks, everyone. It was meant to be humorous. Spunky is just about the most spoiled critter on the planet - a poor substitute for snuggling our little boys, but you take what life offers. We have been known to make an extra run to the produce market to keep him in fresh veggies, but we don't mind. He came to our daughter as an abused rescue, and she couldn't keep him with her herd of females because she doesn't want to become a breeder, but he needed to be nursed back to health. By the time he was well enough to adopt, he was settled in here...

Sadly, we only see the kids/grands outdoors now because my son-in-law travels to Covid hot spots in his work - he is extremely cautious, but not all of his coworkers are the same. Outdoors is not so easy since snow has come early here.
