    Wow! Imagine someone dropping off that gorgeous boy?! What kind of people do we have in the world today?? There are just so many animals thrown away, it is so upsetting.

    I'm glad that he found you to take care of him. Let us know how the testing goes. Lord knows I usually have room for one more FIV+ guy, lol.

    I just sent a couple of his pictures to my sister. She had considered taking Pops (one of the kittens I found) but decided her life was too hectic at that time to do so. Things have calmed a little for her but she is dealing with two geriatric dogs with major health issues so she may not be up to another cat yet. Plus she tends to like to get pets when they are very young. I've tried to convince her that older animals will bond with you just like babies.

    VERY Upsetting.I sometimes get to the point where I think about it all day long.It's awful!
    Even when I was a little kid...I couldn't stop thinking of all the abandoned neglected abused cats/kittens ,(and all the living) in the world.I never could understand mean people.Or just people to turn their cheek.I just can't understand it.Never will.

    I saw a bumper sticker one day it said"Mean People S***".
    I wanted one but thought better of it.lol

    Thank You Kim for this wonderful siggy

    We second that!
    Jasper has no idea that I agreed yet, this baby is a surprise Vday gift for him . His new name is Jupiter, since we already have Io, which of course is the moon to Jupiter! . From what Kim says this guy is a big boy too! Io will be thrilled to have a Big Bud to snuggle with!

    Well, Jupiter had a good vet check. He tested NEGATIVE for Leukemia and Aids! WOO HOO!!! He was de-wormed and got his Distemper and Rabies shots as well. He weighed 10.11 lbs., and is believed to be no more than 2 years old. His teeth looked great!!! (Sorry I forgot to mention some of these things to you, Kym)

    I am so excited for him to get to be a loving member of the Dr. Goodnow home! We still have to work out his travel plans, and I need to get him neutered soon.

    Edit to add: Oh, he is filthy dirty, and covered with flea dirt. So... as soon as I get brave enough to bathe him, that is next on the agenda! At least now I know he is healthy so he can be indoors to stay warm after his bath.
