Beans has entered the building!!!! The drive was a little loner than Mapquest said but we made it up to Ohio to fetch Beans late yesterday afternoon. Michelle brought him out in my carrier. When I got him to the car he jsut meowed a few times and then settled in for the long ride home. He is really laid back and it doen't seem like much bothers him so him riding in a truck will not be a problem. He was so good. When we stopped I got him out and held him and it was like he knew me his whole life. He wanted to cuddle and loves loves to be petted! He is much cuter than the petfinder pic. he has a long face , reminds me of an Oriental and is Buff and white. In the petfinder pic he looked just Buff to me. It was late when I got home, so I settled Beans in the bathroom and then fed the gang. I sat with beans awhile and took some pics. This morning he crawled up into my lap and just wanted to be petted and petted. He is eating and has urinated but no poop yet. His ears are dirty so I am going to clean them out. They are itching some too so I might have to have them checked. He is so cute when he goes to the litter box. To pee he lays almost all the way down in the litter box., and then he tries to cover it up with his front paw that looks like a chicken wing. he has some pads and nails which have been getting caught a little. I was thinking I should trim them but he doesn't want them touched at all and bite me not to break skin but to let me know he didn't want this front legs touched. he is so adaptable and already acts like he has been here forever. And now for the pics........















here he is propped up on his what I call his chicken wings.




here he is on his back legs






here are a few pics to try and show you how his front legs are







and his tail looks like it was cut off but it isn't but does have a kink in it at the tip like my Ying
