It's been a few days. I was away. I traded him for a handful of Mexican jumping beans and a deck of haunted bicycle playing cards when I was in Romania. He had bitten one of his charmers recently, and they were happy to get him off their hands. Don't let the story fool you! He's not mean-spirited and wont to biting at all. Nor are gypsies won to trading fascinating and exotic creatures for odds and ends.
