    My friend Irene said that this is an omen that Buddy belongs with me. I went to a flea market yesterday and bought a basket bed for $5. I took out the lining, which is actually a very expensive condom bed you buy at cat shows. I took it out and Ari claimed it as his bed. I then took a beat up old bed pillow and covered it and put it in the basket, placing it on top of the refrigerator,
    Buddy's favorite spot. My boy is asleep in it as we speak. He LOVES his new kitty bed!!!

    Condom bed, eh? I'd like to see that. LOL Sorry, Donna, couldn't resist it. I think Irene may be right but no pressure here. If things work out that you can keep him, great for both of you!

    A man don't stand a chance with me if I have to make a choice between the two..

    People find so many stupid reasons to get rid of a pet so count your lucky stars that he hadn't already went to that home or there's no telling what would have happened to him.

    If it was meant to be that he have another home, when the time is right and everything is in place, the purfect one will come.

    Donna,

    Indeed, it can be disheartening when it seems like things have gone awry. I completely agree with the sentiment regarding weeding people out which is part of the process.

    Everything will turn out for the best, of this I am sure.

    Oh, Donna, how frustrating! Maybe Buddy just isn't meant to leave .... not right now anyway!

    Kimlovescats,

    I think you're right. He wasn't meant to go anywhere but here with me. For now anyway.

    I'm sorry it didn't work out again but at least he is safe and sound with you. And who knows, maybe in a few years you'll remember back to this and say
    "I can't believe how close I came to losing Buddy those couple of times in 2008".
