the switching of the tee shirts I highly suggest it really works well with most of the people I suggest it too. Also since you have roommates you should also keep another thing in mind. What you want to do is make only the contact between you and the glider. I know it is hard but you need to let glider bond tightly to you before introducing him to your room mates. We let our smokey pretty much meet everyone but he was much harder to bond with. When My husband became his MAIN and ONLY person, the bonding took a 180 degree turn around after a couple of weeks of isolation from all the other people in our house, he started to really bond with "his person" Take the time to let him know you are his safe zone and that he can count on you for safe haven. Another thing to keep in mind is don't try to hold him , let him hold you. Good luck and BTW my opinion on vet costs.. they will range anywhere from 30.00 to 300.00, be knowledageable about what to look for.. Also vets are hard to come by please find one early..Good Luck
