Yes, he IS our first foster furkid. My husband has fallen for him, too! I had to work this morning, and my husband came home around 10:00 a.m. to check on him, and to feed him. I had my husband hold him for awhile last night while Shadow was sleeping, to give him some "bonding" time. My husband had me call his sister to tell her about it!

When he made the comment "Well, given enough time, Angel will probably get used to him"' I knew right away that our "foster" home may well turn into an adoptive home for little Shadow! Shadow slept on me in the recliner in the living room last night. (I had to be available for feeding times and such, you know).

He sneezed a few times during the night, so I called the Humane Society when I got off work and told them. They had me take Shadow back out there to be checked. They gave me some medicine to start giving to him twice a day---Clavimox. He HATES it! He isn't real, real sick, so we caught it really early. Now he needs to give another poop sample so it can be checked for worms.

I found out a little more about him. He was found in the parking lot of a Bonnavilla Homes manufacturing company about 30 miles from the town I live in. There are apparently a lot of cats around that area. They think that since he is such a curious little fart, he must have just wandered off from the rest of the litter. He was exploring, looking for his furever family, I think!

He weighs 14 ounces today. I let him down on the floor by our two dogs, Sandi & Oreo, and they were all three fine with it. I took pictures, and will post them when I get the film developed. Angel is the one I'm worried about. She hisses and growls any time she sees him, and won't come near him, or us if we're holding him. She even hissed and growled at my son when he went upstairs to his room last night and started petting her. She could smell Shadow's scent on his hands, we think.

I think I'm going to go pickup some film for our Polaroid camera and try to get a few pictures of Shadow with that. I think I could scan them so I could get a few posted here while waiting to get the others developed.
