He was so loveable tonight! I stayed out there with him while he ate his canned cat food. I held the dish for him. He purred and purred and gave me lots of head bumpies and let me pet his back and give him scritches. I'm thinking in a few days he might be ready for me to pick him up but not sure. I just don't want to rush him. I think he's going to make a great house kitty. He's so lovey dovey. You should have heard those loud purrs. I don't need to wait too long, though, because he's got a couple of ticks on him. On my next days off, I'm going to put his canned food in the cat carrier. If I feed him early enough, I can get him to the vet. I'll call them before I arrange it, though.
