Introducing ALI -- UPDATE POST #16 *PICS*

[Reachoutrescue]

Awe... poor guy. I hope he settles in soon. He's probably just so confused. Just be careful with the weight loss, and make sure it's gradual because Calloway ended up losing too much too soon (must be a thing to have chubby tuxies), and the vet was not happy because it is dangerous for his diabetes.
It's hard to get things just right... sigh.

Thanks Jenn. We have not started the diet yet. I want to wait until he adjusts to living her first. We are going to put him on Innova weight control once he is ready to begin his dreadful diet. I still have him on the meow mix the owner gave me. I am taking him in next week to my vet to get him an all around check up...praying he does not have diabetes, as I heard that large cats are prone to it. With him being so young, I am a bit worried.

We use the storage containers, but I cut an opening in one end. They only have two step over a 5 inch door. Some of our kids are flingers and will shovel a ton of litter each time. I have foound that you can put the lid on and it keeps some of the smell down. For our larger guys ( Bart, Mits, Peak) it usually keeps the aim in the box. A regular litter pan is way to small for a 20+ lb cat. These guys will shoot 6 inches over a regular pan.

Ali is doing really good. He is coming out more now and him and Munchkin play together every night. Midnite does not like Ali very much, maybe because he is another male on his turf. They have had a few spats, but nothing to bad. Ali loves to be pet, especially his ears and above his tail. He is a very sweet baby!! I am going to put him online this weekend.

Here are some pictures:

This one is creepy. I had only the t.v. on when I took this...crazy!


Here Ali is in his favorite spot. Between our couch and chair.


Now that it's quiet....he is ALL sprawled out!


More updates soon!

Why, he's settling right in! Good for you, Ali!

Handsome boy! He has exactly the same stripe down his nose that my tuxie Gatsby has.

Ali sounds like a typical tux--walk in, take over, and soak up the lovin'.

Oh he is sooooo handsome!!! There's another one I would never let go, lol!

Hope he gets all nice and healthy and feels all better!

Big hugs to Ali, and to you for all you're doing for him!

He sure is handsome. I hope he's able to find the purrfect loving caring forever home.
