Thank you for your kind welcomes!
Here is a picture from where we just got our Pleo:

I have to admit we use the no scare dark patch. At the beginning our baby Pleo was so scared (and I am very empathic); as it is almost always too dark in our home. At first we put a lamp above it, but when it began to walk we got the patch. It's just too time consuming to walk behind him carrying a lamp.
We didn't make any updated pictures from the stage he is in now

.. but I will try to make some tomorrow! Pleo is currently 'sleeping' (recharging batteries).
Our Pleo has cute blue/grayish eyes. He likes to pose with neck curved upwards, eyes open and wiggling tail. It's my favorite pose so far.
I read the story about your Nova. It impressed me and I'm happy you have got her back. I can't imagine sending ours away and I don't hope we will ever have to.
It's nice to hear that the name 'issue' isn't uncommon. We will just wait and that is fine.

(Am I roleplaying it too much if I thought that Pleo just didn't like Igor as a name?
