    At the moment I'm taking care of 9 other kitties and a dog. I cannot afford the vet care for any more animals. This morning's bill was $99.50, but they gave me a $15 discount. I just don't have it in my budget to care for another animal on a regular basis. I'll do what I can for him right now though. He is such a sweetheart that he really deserves to have a family that will love him and let him love them in return. I think I'll put the address to a video or two on those little strips of paper that you can tear off and take with you.
    I forgot to mention that he is 4 pounds.

    I thought he looked about the same size as Paizly. She is 4.3 lbs. And she just got her last round of shots along with rabies this past Tuesday. And she is scheduled for her spay on the 18th.
    Just because they are the same size doesn't mean they are the same age, but they're probably close. Paizly is approximately 4 months old. But I think she is small. She only gained .3 lbs in 4 weeks, and she eats a lot!

    I hope you can find this lovie kitty a home. He seems like he really wants one.
    Our goal in life should be - to be as good a person as our dog thinks we are.

    Thank you for the siggy, Michelle!

    That baby is just adoreable and really needing someone to love him.Please be careful who you turn him over to. He would be a velcro baby to the right humans and be very faithful. I love his little voice, it is so sweet. Wish I could take on another one but that is impossiable..

    I thank you for the offer, but I can cover it. I just need to find him a permanent home because I can't add another animal to the regular routine of vet trips and monthly doses of medicine. There are a couple of local programs that I've seen posting fliers that have funds to help with spaying and neutering animals. I'm going to check into getting some assistance with that for Gary, I'm almost at the point where I think I can grab him, and for this new kitty. Thanks again though! I do appreciate it.

    I KNOW WHAT YOU ARE GOING THROUGH MOESHA, AS I PUT FOOD OUT FOR THE PORCH CATS AND ITS ALWAYS GONE BEFORE LONG.
    AND THE SAD THING IS THAT THE ANIMAL WELFARE IS FULL, AND TO GO WITH ANIMAL CONTROL MEANS ALMOST CERTAIN DEATH AS THEY ARE SO FILLED UP WITH STRAY CATS.
    I WONDER IF TRAPPING THEM IS BETTER AS AT LEAST THAT WILL STOP UNWANTED KITTENS.
    AND NOW EBONY TUBSTER IS NOT COMING AROUND, AND I WONDER IF HE WILL BE LIKE SOME MANY PORCH CATS , A MEMORY OF A CAT WHO USED TO COME AROUND.
    YOU HAVE A GOOD HEART , AND I KNOW THAT YOU WILL DO THE BEST THAT YOU CAN.
    GOD BLESS YOU FOR CARING!!!

    Here are a few pictures of the little guy. (He has no name because I'm not getting attached and have to keep him.)

    It is almost impossible to get a picture of him by oneself. He's always following you and you can't get a decent angle. I had to have assistance to get these. Notice his feet are always going. He's purring and pawing constantly and can't get you to rub his head enough. Even while she's hold him he's trying to get scrubbies.









    Here he is before his trip to the vet. I have to use this size carrier for Morgan. He doesn't fit in anything smaller. This little guy could live in it!

    Oh! He's SO beautiful, with those luxurious whiskers and those great big ears! I love his long aristocratic nose, and that wonderful tail. I'm sure anyone who meets him will fall for him. It's certainly true that you have to be especially careful finding homes for black kitties this time of year, but once the right person meets him, he'll have his lovely tail wrapped right around their heart.

    Love, Columbine

    Oh he is the spitting image of my Alex who got killed last week. Alex also talked alot and was so sweet and loving. You know sometimes we don't pick the kitties, they pick us.

    Beautiful boy! LOOK at those happy toes and endless head bumps!

    momtomany...I apologize for asking, as you lost your beloved Alex so so recently...but might you consider this little guy if transport could be arranged?

    Again, I apologize for speaking out of turn and hurting you...it was just a thought.
