Mancat Monday....

This is Dr. Watson.  After picking him up Saturday night, I called my friend Kelly (who already has a special placed reserved for her in heaven).  She agreed to let me borrow her basement foster room.  We went over yesterday and got him set up and she is taking him to her vet this am.  His top coat seems OK, but I suspect they will have to shave off most of his undercarriage due to mats.  He does have his claws and is not neutered.  And, after seeing him, Kelly's neighbor Mary Pat said she may have a lead on a home for him.  :)

Update as of 11:30am EST: Dr Watson weighs about 9.5 pounds and was last seen lounging around the vet's office. They aer going to combo test him (FIV/FeLV) and shave off his mats for us today and Kelly will get him back this afternoon.

And now for the kitten news:
2 litters were dropped off at the county dog shelter.  I took the litter of 6.  4 boys, 2 girls...no names yet.  They MAY be big enough to spay/neuter already but they are jumpy!!  Gotta work on the social skills some.  I know the fuzzy one and the black one are boys.  From there it is light tabby, medium tabby and 2 darker tabbys.  I may have to resort to name bands again.

  2. Mr. Watson is a gorgeous boy! We hope his tests come back negative and he can be neutered soon. Purrs for a wonderful forever home for him!

    And six tabbies! That's a lot of tabby love! :-) Good luck with the socialization; we think they'll come around quickly enough!

  4. Katnip - I didn't line them up. Opened the door to work on socialization and there they were. I shut the door and ran for my camera. :)

  6. Wow that is a lot of kitties that need homes! We hope they all find someone... especially since Mr. Watson, since we know tiny kittens have an easier time finding homes usually. We like the picture of the kitties sitting together with their alien eyes glowing! :)
