Monty being so silly

[catfamily]

Here is Monty.
I found him at a shelter coughing like an old man smoker(very loud cough).Accually I went there to pick up a different cat not knowing about Monty.My girlfriend Martha was with me and she kept going up to him patting him.So I talked to the manager and asked what was going on with him and she said his owner dropped him off 4-5 months prior and was about 3-4 years old and he had him since he was a kitten but he also said he was outdoors all the time.Said he ALWAYS wanted to go out.But the manager said that the guy was moving and couldn't keep him anymore.He was in his 20's and a party type guy and very rough looking.But Monty also had bloody stools on top of the loud deep cough.Of course in front of the air conditioner at the shelter too
But he's been with me since July of 2003 and a very healthy Monty now.Oh by the way.The owner said his name was scitso.Or however you spell it. The shelter changed it to scorpio.And I named him Monty.
Monty was devistated at missing his owner for so very long.I tried EVERYTHING to help him NOT be sad.It took him a good year to be happy.
He's so beautiful,and VERY demanding We love him so much.And...he never wants to go out since being with us.I wonder why? He follows Mike all over the house and they play tag and hide and seek
