the "ocey" are the markings, circular markings running the length of his back and sides, according to the vet it's a male, she did the squeezing, I did the cringing.

And I'm guessing momma was feral and that might be the reason as well, but he reacts to changes in light, and not to much the familiarity of the people, I know it's only been a couple of hours, guess I'm all about things moving quicker than they should. =P

I'll give him a few days and go from there, thanks for the information.
