    Happy gotcha day, jake!!!

    Well, Jake is safe and sound and settling in nicely. When I first got to the Saybrook Animal Shelter he hissed at me. Once I got him home and set up, he was rolling on my bedroom floor!! He's very fond of catnip. Kate, the ACO told me not to feel bad if it doesn't work out, I can always return him. THAT will never happen!!! I'll post pictures over the weekend.

    Merry Christmas my BIG BOY!!!! (ALL 19 LBS OF HIM!)

    Rest In Peace Casey (Bubba Dude) Your paw print will remain on my heart forever. 12/02

    Maya Linn, my heart is broken. The day your beautiful blue eyes went blind was the worst day of my life.I only wish I could've done something.I'll miss your "premium" purr and our little "conversations". 1997-2013 See you again "ONE FINE DAY"

Negative for both leukemia and aids. UTD on his shots and neutered. He's a real marshmallow (as you can see by the video). I'm excited and have decided to make it a Ploss tradition. If I lose another cat, I'll find an oldie but goodie to take home with me.

    Jen,

    Thank you for your generous offer to give him a home. I was so worried about what I'd do if he was positive. You put my mind at ease. oxoxoxox





    He's definitely going on a diet. Good thing he doesn't eat canned food. He's going to fit in GREAT!!!

    I've been Boo'd ... right off the stage!

    Aaahh, I have been defrosted! Thank you, Bonny and Asiel!
    Brrrr, I've been Frosted! Thank you, Asiel and Pomtzu!

    I'm glad to hear that he's already making himself comfortable in your home. Now hopefully your other cats will accept him and he will also accept them. Good luck.

    There's still some hissing (at me) but I attribute it to all the different cat smells.

    Oh, Jake... Welcome HOME!!!!!!!!
