Well, poor Gilbert was hiding behind the bed for the for couple of weeks, but he's finally come around. I've given him his first bath and taken lots of pictures. I named him Gilbert after my late step-brother. Gilbert was rescued about 25 yrs ago and had been living in Mom's basement and I wanted to socialize him to I brought him home. Introducing Gilbert...he may not look special, but being my very first rescue, he'll always be special in my heart.
This is where he decided he felt safe after coming out from behind the bed.
Meeting Speckles. She likes him.
Meeting Max. He was very suspicious....
Gilbert's first bath. He was scared of the showerhead so I bathed him in the kitchen sink.
He was shivering after his bath so he warmed up in front of the fire.
He then had something to eat and didn't mind if Speckles drank from his waterdish. He really likes her.
He really likes the deck.
And he knows how to use the litterbox...I'm sooo happy about that although I hope he's not embarrassed by this picture.
Here he his all dressed up and ready to parteeee.
End of a long day. This is where he sleeps at night. Max doesn't really like it, but let's him sleep there anyway.
