Spike (starting his work day off right).
...told us he would be glad to have his picture on our
site when we asked him. His mom says he loves
the attention. You can read all about him at his site."
Spike is a cute cuddly porcupine (carpenter ), who loves attention.
He refuses to eat anything but the finest fresh bread with his
coffee. We couldn't help showing you some of the highlights of his
site: |

| "Even though Spike is very sweet and
gentle , just like all porcupines he does have about 30,000 quills on
his body!! The quills are located underneath a thick coat of hair so it
is very easy to pet and snuggle him without ever feeling the very sharp
quills. The porcupine uses the quills in defense when they are scared or
threatened. Spike has no idea what a threat is and therefore his quills
are always laying flat on his back causing no harm to anyone.....Spike
has also been visiting elementary schools, the kids, teachers,
[Madelyn], and Spike all have a great time." |

Spike always takes time out of his busy day to answer
his email. He's become a pretty popular guy.
