He had a great night last night. He hid under the bed for most of the night. Then he came out for a little nosh and some much needed loving. He's the sweetest cat! Has the tinyest "mew". He's very thin, which could be the beginning of kidney failure. But he's home now, and will be loved, fed, comfortable and happy!!

Did I miss something? Where did Bart come from? He's so cute, and it sounds like he'll fit in. Has he met Spike yet - maybe Spike would be willing to share some of his extra pounds?

It was an emergency situation. His former owner hasn't been able to find a job in a year, his medical benefits have run out and he is being forced to move to a place with no pets.

He's a great little boy (boy?? He's 14 years old). He's thin. I believe it might be to possible renal failure.

If you look at his picture and Bad @$$ Buddy's picture, they could be twins!!

What a handsome guy! Hello, Bart the Magnificent!

And prayers for his former owner who finds himself in a difficult life situation.

Hopefully, he's thin due to getting older. (If only that could happen to me. LOL) Welcome, Bart! :love:

I have a "senior kitizen" who is not as plump as he used to be. It gives me hope for my golden years. My kitty is healthy, though, just a tad thinner than he used to be. I am taking him in sometime in March for his senior checkup...just in case.

I took the baby gates down and everyone is calm, there's no hissing or growling. Buddy and Bart are sitting about a foot away from one another. I am amazed that this is going so smoothly!!!

I left my bedroom door open last night. I am AMAZED!!!! I didn't hear a peep out of anyone. I have a feeling they all know that he's an oldie. It's almost like they respect him. I sure lucked out!
