Curious 9-year-old Arvion is a nature enthusiast
11/1/2009 2:14 PM
By: Jennifer Borget

Arvion in a 9-year-old nature enthusiast and a young gentleman.  
Last year, when News 8 visited 9-year old Arvion, he was a curious boy exploring a farm, and a year later, he's still just as curious.

"Come here, look at that," Arvion said as he pointed to a snake in an aquarium.

Arvion, having more time to come out of his shell, has become more outgoing.

"I love people," Arvion said.

And he wants to be loved. The little gentleman is an explorer and nature enthusiast, so the Austin Nature Center was the perfect place for him to play.

Arvion

News 8's Jennifer Borget introduces us to Arvion once more, as he gets ready to celebrate his 10th birthday.



"Hey little fella, here little fella," he called to a bobcat.

He wasn't afraid of the big animals, though he did want to avoid the skunk.

Arvion is still in search for his forever family. He knows, and has a good idea what he wants.

"Hugs and Kisses," he requested.

"Love" he said is what he wants most from his "real family," as he calls it. He doesn't care what they look like, though he does have a special cooking request from mom and dad.
 

"I like breakfast for dinner. Sausage, and biscuits, and pancakes," he said.

Arvion needs a family who can keep up with his fun loving sprit, and help him achieve his full potential and discover life's greatest treasures.

Arvion loves animals, but as a profession. He wants to own his own truck driving company. Of course, he said he also wants to bring along his pet, a wiener dog named "Rusty" he hopes to own someday.

The City of Austin plans to have the Nueces Bike Boulevard opened by late spring. The boulevard would be a multi-use path where car traffic is discouraged. How do you feel about this?
I think this is a great idea, we need more roads like this
I think it needs more public input
I don’t think this is a good idea
