He just stared at it and then tried to run away. I didn&#8217;t think he&#8217;d played with any toys at this point so it wasn&#8217;t too surprising. Once he did play with it a little, he was back to watching the weather.<\/p>\n<p>It was actually sort of difficult to draw his attention away from the clouds. I even had a little difficulty getting him to eat. He just seemed like a quiet, somewhat lonesome guy. I&#8217;m glad I took a few minutes to tend a few of his needs.<\/p>\n<ul class=\"ssb_list_wrapper\"><li class=\"fb2\" style=\"width:135px\"><iframe src=\"\/\/www.facebook.com\/plugins\/like.php?href=http%3A%2F%2Fkezune.com%2Fsim%2F2015%2F01%2F27%2Four-c2-grendel-gruff%2F&amp;layout=button_count&amp;action=like&amp;show_faces=false&amp;share=true&amp;width=135&amp;height=21&amp;appId=307091639398582\" scrolling=\"no\" frameborder=\"0\" style=\"border:none; overflow:hidden;  width:150px; height:21px;\" allowTransparency=\"true\"><\/iframe><\/li><li class=\"twtr\" style=\"width:90px\"><a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/share\" class=\"twitter-share-button\" data-url=\"http:\/\/kezune.com\/sim\/2015\/01\/27\/our-c2-grendel-gruff\/\">&nbsp;<\/a><script>!function(d,s,id){var js,fjs=d.getElementsByTagName(s)[0],p=\/^http:\/.test(d.location)?'http':'https';if(!d.getElementById(id)){js=d.createElement(s);js.id=id;js.src=p+':\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js';fjs.parentNode.insertBefore(js,fjs);}}(document, 'script', 'twitter-wjs');<\/script><\/li><li class=\"gplus\" style=\"width:68px\"><div class=\"g-plusone\" data-size=\"medium\" data-href=\"http:\/\/kezune.com\/sim\/2015\/01\/27\/our-c2-grendel-gruff\/\"><\/div><\/li><li class=\"ssb_pin\" style=\"width:47px\"><a href=\"\/\/www.pinterest.com\/pin\/create\/button\/\" data-pin-do=\"buttonBookmark\" ><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"\/\/assets.pinterest.com\/images\/pidgets\/pinit_fg_en_rect_gray_20.png\" \/><\/a><\/li><li class=\"ssb_stum\" style=\"width:75px\"><su:badge layout=\"1\" location=\"http:\/\/kezune.com\/sim\/2015\/01\/27\/our-c2-grendel-gruff\/\"><\/su:badge><script type=\"text\/javascript\">\r\n\t\t(function() {\r\n\t\t\tvar li = document.createElement('script'); li.type = 'text\/javascript'; li.async = true;\r\n\t\t\tli.src = ('https:' == document.location.protocol ?
