    Pouncer got a job!!!!

    He starts Tuesday and will be a Therapy Cat!!! We'll go to the local nursing home and let the residents hold and pet him. The Activites Corrdinator already has a list of those that like cats and dogs. She has one dog come in reguarly but no cats, so Pouncer got the job! I'm so proud of my little bugger! Lets hope that he'll not be squirmy and hyper (not NawTee either) Lets hope that he'll be my sweet loving Pouncer that will let anybody hold him.

    Also, return from the vet said that his toe is healing just fine. He's still got a bit of sweeling, but it'll go down and the infection is gone. She is not sure that the nail will grow back as a normal nail, but it will grow back.

    Awww, that's wonderful news, and Lily is so proud of him now!

    That sounds like a wonderful job for him, and it's a good thing to make people happy that way!

    And great that his paw is healing!

    That's fantastic!! How exciting for both of you. And it's such a giving job too......I'm sure all the people will feel so lucky to have Pouncer, and his meowmie in their lives.

    Wow, what a kitty! When does he get his first paycheck?

    You can pretty much count on him being naw-tee, but hopefully it's the cute kind of naw-tee that will only endear the residents to him. What a great job though - I would love to do something like this....if Tubby was younger.

    Congratulations Pouncer!!!

    Wonderful news. I bet Pouncer will be an angel and not a naw-tee kitty. I think my Smokey would make a great therapy kitty but around here they still only use therapy dogs.

    Good for Pouncer!! Beau and Felicia will be proud of him.
    Beau might have made a good therapy cat. He is calm and used to being handled by other people.
    Tell Pouncer I am happy to hear that his paw is better!

    Good going, Pouncer! You are multi-talented. Just think -- more people to adore you.

    Pepper would be interested in learning how you got the wrapping off your leg. So far, none of her ideas are working.

    Catching up late here...but what a wonderful post! I LOVE this idea and am so proud of Pouncer!!!! This is the greatest idea and I know he will brightent the day for many of the elderly. Personally, that is where I most love to volunteer my own time and the home where I go to do "manicures" (rubbing on handlotion) has resident dogs. I don't think my three would be good therapy cats though but HURRAY for Pouncer!!!

    Oh Pouncer I have to say sorry! I thought you found a job like helping mommy not to have to pay the taxes (and tearing the paperwork off) but you got yourself a serious job!!! That is so great.

    A Hooray for our Pouncer, the helping paw
