Rescue rooster is in the Tree!

I rescued this Rooster from euthanasia, and one of you said I would fall in love with him. He spent about 20 days or so at a local pound. When I picked him up, he went right into my cage, much to my amazement, I thought we would have to chase and fight. He spent 2 days in my garage. On day three I went in, got him in the cage again with no problem. We went to my backyard and I let him out. He dug a large whole with his mighty talons, much like a dog would do, then he began to bathe with the dirt. It was SO cute. He was so glad to be outside, the temps here today where wonderful, in the 60's. I tried to get him back in the cage........well he would not go!! He loved being outside SO much!!!My cats followed him around, but he didnt care. I wanted to get him back in the garage for the night, but he liked the trees. I felt SO bad. My gosh, hes been thru hell. But, after googleing "rooster in the tree", I have found that this is very common. So, I dont feel as bad. Its dark and hes right where he was an hour ago. Today I read the municiple laws for my county, and to my surprise we can have backyard chickens.I can see, more chickens for his company in the future. ANd to the women that said I would become addicted, you very well might be RIGHT!!!
