I can vouch for that; whenever I was little, I wanted to be a ballerina SO bad. Now I'm just like "Eh... ballerina... no thanks."
I just came up with a theory, and I'm sorry if it might have been mentioned before, but what if Wilt got abandoned by accident? Like maybe for some reason he and his creator got separated by accident and he was left thinking he or she abandoned him and the creator was left thinking that Wilt didn't like him or her anymore. I mean, this would be especially plausible if they had just had some sort of argument or misunderstanding or something. That would also kind of explain why the creator never came to Foster's... maybe they created Wilt somewhat in their image (abandoned or not, you can tell that he was a pretty nice guy to begin with) and is
extremely careful not to tread on others' feelings and therefore doesn't want to "bother" him if they think he's happier there without them.
While it of course doesn't explain the injuries (they could have happened anywhere in between separation and Foster's), it could explain Wilt's abandonment issues and weakness to become a door mat to just about anyone... he might not want to make others angry with him for fear of being forsaken at the drop of a hat again.
