· Quote

Our nephew was supposed to adopt Willy and a son. A long story, but he no longer can.  Sad I contacted another adopting couple to see if they would be willing to take Willy with some little boys, and they would really like to, but had a concern that we need help with.  Question

They were wondering that, since Willy is used to "female companionship",  Wink  as to say, he would miss this and have problems.

I thought that he would be OK, since females won't be around, he would be able to handle it, but I feel better getting other opinions.   Smile

Thanks, everyone!
Laurie

As long as there are no females around then he will be fine and soon get used to being with males. Males do mount each other so that is something to bear in mind and maybe something to point out to any perspective new owner especially as they have voiced concerns of Willy having been kept with girls previously Wink
