Oh no you didn't......

What was in the other carrier?????  This.....
Meet Cheerio.

He was at Petco. But is he VERY shy. So, mom switched him out for Mocha.

So, we are now Mocha-less and up one Cheerio.  :)  He is currently in the bathroom. Mom tried him out some on Sunday. He was pretty scared. In fact, everytime mom walked in the bathroom he was curled up in the litter box. However, last night before bed mom checked on him and he was sleeping in FRONT of the litter box. And as of this morning he was sleeping on the scratcher in the room. We will take that as progress. The second time he came out on Sunday, he stayed in mom's arms and then got down on his own. And made it all of 2 feet until he was under the end table. He did sniff noses with Spud.....  We hope he will come around and can go back to get his forever home.


No one has much background on him. He is about 6 months old and was found as a stray. Other than being scared, he is people friendly. Doesn't care much one way or the other about the cats. Mom took Caramel into the bathroom last night as a test and cheerio acted like he could care less. Mom left them alone for about 30 minutes and when she came back they were both asleep on opposite sides of the room. So much for that.....

We will keep working with him. He has toys but mom doesn't hear him playing with them. He tenses up when mom picks him up but relaxs pretty quickly. Hopefully his trust will come around soon.

  10. What a handsome boy. The right person is out there for him. And sometimes a stay in the adoption center is just what the doctor ordered for shy kitties. Good luck!
