Protective of those he loves, Yontaya can also suffer from separation anxiety if he goes too long without seeing his owner. He's been known to push others away for a chance at extra skritches, but at the same time he loves to share. It's not uncommon for Yontaya to bring his pack mates and his owner "presents" - whether they're flowers he's found, or one of his unending supply of sticks. Sometimes dead things, after he's done playing with them.
