The new fosters are here.
I (temporarily) have Fritto. 9 year old boy who came in place of Little John. L.J. has an URI, and was still in isolation and could not be released. Fritto is a VERY confident boy. Walked right out of his carrier and had dinner.

I have Octavius, who will now be named 8-Ball. He is a gorgeous long haired boy who will be in need of some grooming. (now isn't it lucky for him that I happen to know someone who can do that for him? ;) )
He took a liking to Cameo instanty, but then decided he needed to hide out under the couch for a while until things settled down.

And I have Zaney. Much more inmidated by all the newness than I expected, but I real sweet boy. But Finn (who was so terrific with all the other cats) took an instant DISLIKE to home. :( I tried to get a photo of Finn's bristle brush tail, but they did not get.

Now for the best news ever. But in order for the miracle to be truly appreciated, I must start at the begining.
So here is the story......
"N", the driver for the shelter, called this morning. She was intimidated by the Nor'easter (super heavy rain storm) we were getting. She did not want to let the cats down :( But was afraid to make the drive.
When "N" reached the shelter to get the cats and determine how the driving was, "S" was there at the shelter. "S" just happened to be going to Easton (the city we were meeting in). So "S" said she would drive the cats for the rendezvous.
The drive from the shelter to Easton was 1 hour. During that 1 hour Taz (the 18 year old cat) busted out of her carrier and rode the entire way at "S's" side. "S" informed us that she wanted to permanenetly adopt Taz!
WOO HOO!!!!!
A miracle in the making!
"N" was afraid to drive, "S" just happened to be at the shelter at the right time, And Taz found her new forever mom.
Anyone else have goose bumps???
OH, one more side note.. As you read on Taz's bio, she is deaf. "S" is a sign language teacher.
