Tom has arrived.

A local Cat sheleter has asked me to take in Tom , a 20 year old Grey and white Cat. He has arrived and the other Cats curiousity to him , as he is deaf , has vision like Mr Magoo , and is oblivoius to most things. actaually he is a lot like Mr Magoo , in that he goes where he wants , does as he plesaes as he is so oblivious to things around him. He has commandered the Moose pup tent , and loves his Fancy Feast!The other Cats seem to realize that Tom is not that weell, and they cuddle beside him and share their warmth when he lies on the big cushion that is his favorite , next to the Moose tent!

Aaaw so you have cat grandpa now with you. So good for him that he does not have to stay at the shelter. He'll love your place:D

How wonderful of you to make room for "just one more!" But how could you resist a gray and white!?!?!?!?!?!?

Welcome Tom to the Lost Cat Hotel!

He sounds lovely! Any chance of pictures!? ;) :D

Yes, pictures please.

Awwww! That is so kind of your resident cats to make him feel comfy!

And how nice of you to take in an elderly cat.

Welcome Tom to pet talk, as i am sure we are going to hear a lot about you, how sweet the other puddytats have welcomed him too, u r neat person to take Tom into your home, he is truely a blessed pussycat:)

Oh, how wonderful that The Lost Cats Motel has a resident Grampa!!! I am glad things are being comfy and smooth with the other 'residents'...

Oh what a special thing for you to give an elderly cat a nice home!!! It is also just wonderful how your others have taken him in and appreciate him for his age and wisdom!!! Yes, we need grandpa pictures, PLEASE!!!:)

How did an old, loving, 20 year old cat end up at the shelter? I sure hope it wasn't because someone got sick of him.

It's wonderful that you and your cats have welcomed Tom into your lives :)

I'm so glad that you're able to care for Tom and that the other cats are making him feel at home. :) I'd also love to see pictures of him. :)

I will be sending Jen a photo of Tom , and hopefully she can have his photo up in a week or two . He was avilable as his Guardian an older Gentleman had to go to a nursing home . We have a mutual friend at an Animal Rescue association , so she asked me if I could give old tom a home for the rest of his life. so far he loves his Iams turkey , uses the litter box , and loves his pup tent , with the approval of his new pal , Mooose the Magnanimous.The other cats realize that he is not a young cat and have given him a lot of licks , headbumpies and curl by his side to provide warmth! thank You for the kind words , but beleive me Tom is giving me more than I could ever give him.

Tom has certainly settled in, he sounds very happy.

What a happy story, and how wonderful that Tom is able to spend his old age in a comfortable home instead of a shelter.

Did anyone manage to convey the good news to Tom's previous owner???

Just a thought - but it would be good for the old man if they did - my Granny fretted terribly about her dog when she had to go into a frail care facility. We couldn't take her dog, as my two dogs didn't get along with it. Fortunately my aunt found space for "just one more" and my Granny was so relieved!

Good point , I forgot to mention that his owner also Thomas , knows where his dear pal is , and as soon as he can , is going to visit his sole companion of eight years. Mr Hall is a widower , as we used to say and very devoted to his namesake.
