I would love to see Basil experience life. Can't wait to see what he's up to each day :)

[Tracy]

@katteach Thanks Katrina :D

[Karin]

I am looking forward to following Basil, I imagine he'll be having loads of awesome adventures :)

[Tracy]

Little Tiny Teddy! How cute!

Great idea.. will you sell Basil and the images in a book form?? I will be following, and will try bid for him at the end.. sure he will need a rest then though. As you asked, in terms of a charity.. personal choice and often over looked would be anything to do with Kidney cancer. I fundraise for a support organisation called Kidney cancer uk, but fundraising for any cause is just wonderful..

@swilde @veritymccoll Thanks :D @fungirlslim wow! Thanks Jen I have considered a book of images, if I can tracy down a printer :) Thanks for the charity suggestion I'll look into it some more, I really appreciate your support.

As the daughter of a confirmed arctophily (teddy bear collector) I will have to follow Basil's travels - have a great year Basil!

Oh my- he's so tiny! Danger Teddy!

Very nice idea. No specific charities come to mind, but maybe something for kiddies since they like Teddy bears. And a book would be a nice idea too.

I have slumbers (see Slumbers Thebear on facebook). Maybe they can do a shoot together....
I have yet to do a photo of him for 365...hey theres an idea for today!!!
