Have I mentioned Stanley?

So.......I come home Sunday night about 8pm. I spy a cat. Looks like he has a collar on. He runs under a small bush. My neighbor (with young daughter) come outside (knowing full well that I am a SUCKER for cats) and tell me how he must have been around for a day or two and that the across-the-street neighbor has been shoo-ing it off the porch.

UT-OH ! I think

So, I call to the cat, who comes right up to the porch. Cute as a button!! Friendly. Young (7 month old male....not nmeutered). No ID on collar.

What to do.....what to do........too late for the humane society. I have ringworm in one of my foster rooms. My large playpen cages are in THAT room. He ca't go with other cats until testing.............DRAT!

1/2 hour of fretting........CELLAR! I never put cats down there, not cat friendly, but I do have a large dog kennel down there for emergencies (never even used it.) This is where he spent Sunday night.

Monday AM....vet....testing (negative)......shots.....bath.......
Flea treatment.....wormer.......all set to meet the fosters.

And here he is.........STANLEY!

Oh - my - goodness!

Lookie that perfect specimen of tabbiness! Lookie the ear tufts!!! He's quite sexy looking with very interesting facial features. If not for the short hair, I'd say he looks Maine Coonish with those features.

Hmmmm... the catnapper castle IS currently rather vacant.... shold I relent and get another foster like hubby swore I would? Or keep to my vow of "no more fosters til after Christmas"?

Stanley is cute stuff! Glad you brought him in before something happened to him, and with a bobcat/ lynx look that he has, he'll get a furever home fast. :)

AWWW Jen, he is gorgeous. (You had better hide him from Kim - we all know she can't resist a tabby!!);)

Stanley must have seen the visible-only-to-cats neon sign above your house, and know this was a safe place to come for help!!

Sweet little boy! Beautiful markings and I love the long legs.

He's gotta be a fine boy....all Reading dudes are A-OK!

He certainly came to the right place!:D

Stanley is very handsome! Those little tufted ears are so cute!
So when is catnapper picking this one up? :p

;) ;) Oh my Stanley you are just a adorable little boy.. You are so lucky that you were found & in a very good home now..

Stanley (love the name!) is adoreable! LOOK at that face!!

Bless you Jen, for taking Stanley into your home and heart. :)

Ahhh, looks like a sweet boy! Just look at that face! You can tell that he really appreciates you taking him in!!! ;) God bless you, once again!!!

He's so handsome and I'm so glad that you were able to take him in.:) He looks like he might have some siamese in him.;)

What a beauty! Stanley, your colors and markings are gorgeous. You have found the best place for any kitty to be. No need to worry anymore, you'll be loved and cared for more than you ever thought possible. Jen, you've proven once again that there ARE angels among us. Bless you!
