I have seen "Lost Pet" signs on telephone poles and mailboxes here on occasions. I have been on the look out for those. We live off the main road as do many residents around here. At any rate, I have placed an ad on Craigslist with no photo, so if any does contact me they will have to give a good description of him. Unfortunately our craigslist covers the entire county. I looked at the lost and found section with no luck.

Ugh...I probably shouldn't have looked to extensively at the craigslist pet section though...all the "Free Kittens!" ads are making me sick. :cry:

Someone likes being scratched on the head. He will headbutt me consistently until a scratch him :D

I'd say he has made himself comfy in his temporary surroundings.

Oh, Traci...his tummy doesn't seem to be as bad today, so maybe it was getting use to the food. He was pretty much scarfing it down pretty quickly at first but now he seems to have slowed down. His stool appears normal.

He is such a little beauty, Tina, and sounds like he's just a cuddler!!

I personally HATE craigslist, and it takes every ounce of my being to resist emailing all the idiots for the crap they post. I only use craigslist to watch my local lost and found ads to try to make matches. Other than that, I think there is way too much crap going on there.

Not a fan of Craigslist either, but figured it was probably the most visible place to put it around here. I was mistaken about it covering the whole county, it covers 3 or 4 counties!

Anyway, he goes for his neuter tomorrow. They will keep him in the clinic overnight so I will pick him up on Wednesday. Wish him luck!

Oh my lord, I want him. As much as I love my Izzy girl, she's NOT much of a cuddler. Emmy was the one who was always in my lap, in my arms. I miss that so, so much. Izzy likes to be near you but not on you. I want a cuddle-buddy.

Oh my goodness, What an amazingly laid back cat! You would not believe how absolutely BEAUTIFULLY this boy behaved during his trip to the clinic! He went into his carrier without a fuss or fight, did not make a peep during the entire 20 mile drive, just plopped down and enjoyed the trip! Neither of my cats are that good on a trip to the vet :roll:

Slvr...I do believe he would handle the trip to MI very nicely :wink:

Bring him to me. I'll let you know what my move-in date is. I'll tell them from the start I have two cats.

Are you serious slvr? I mean really serious? Because you know this wouldn't be the first time I was willing to drive a cat several states away to give it a good home. If you are serious I will work it out somehow. :wink:

I'm really, really serious. Let me find an apartment that will let me have multiple cats (and not charge me out the ear for it) and we'll make arrangements. If he's as sweet as you say he is, I want him to be my buddy. I've been wanting to get a dog, but my work schedule just does not allow it. All I know is I am not meant to be a one-critter person.
