Hi All,
Here is a link to my thread I posted earlier this year:
http://www.petoftheday.com/talk/showthread.php?t=152244
I was looking for a home for him and it looks like he is staying just like that other little orange guy - Apollo which I will post pics of.
Ozzy first showed up outside my apartment underneath a car parked next to mine. I tried to call Ozzy thinking it might be a female tortie but I couldn't see him very well and so I set up the trap and caught him that next night and he's been inside ever since.
We believe Ozzy must of belonged to someone else and they just dumped him. He was covered in burrs when I found him and such a mess. The vet ended up shaving him. Now his fur is back to normal and he is such a love bug. He still gets scared from time to time but we are still working with him and I'm able to pick him up and hold him and love him. He loves to talk to me in the mornings. My husband can get him to talk pretty much any other time. He's so funny, I will have to get some video of him at some point and post it.
For now though, I'm attaching pictures of when I first trapped him, then when he was shaved, and the progress of his hair growing back.
Melissa
