Lots of love, petting and grooming makes for an excellent pet! I have one who is very vocal and keeps after you till you know what she wants. The other is not vocal at all but love to butt you with his head and is quite an avid hunter. He insists on being outside most of the time but is always on the porch before dark and comes in at night. She (the older one) stays inside most of the time and loves to cuddle.
