Merlin is simply too cute for words!
Here let me try...."Awwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww!"
Is that a word?

Anyway, welcome to Pet Talk bardolino!

I'm very sorry to hear about the loss of Bandit but I hope the fond memories of your years with him can continue to warm you heart!

...as for Merlin's size....I have this feeling he's gonna get pretty dern big! Awwwwwwwwwwww, look at those puppy paws!
