Just stamp "SUCKER" on my forehead again! (UPDATE POST # 40)

Can you cage Nino? He might actually feel "safer".

Sorry about Willie, too. Poor boy.

Thanks guys. I just needed to vent a little.

Nino is not in contact with my guys, he is secluded in my room. Since I have French Doors, I even hung up some curtains so he couldn't see the cats, but he can sense them and does nothing but growl. So I took the curtains down, since he is going to growl anyway, in hopes that seeing them everyday, he will get use to it. I think being an only cat, would be better for him. At least he ate and drank some, but still hasn't used the litter box yet.
The foster kitties have free reign of the house now and of course Nugget has taken them under his wings. I'll have to make another thread about that when I feel up to it. I'm going to get another cup of tea, or maybe a nice sparkling glass of red wine.

Wow Lorraine! You really do have your hands full at your house.
I forgot that you had two little foster kittens too, I would love to see some photos of Nugget with them.

So did the vet give Nino a clean bill of health since he let you take him home with you?
Does he just need antibiotics or other medicine too?
I hope he settles down soon and starts to relax.
He is fixed isn't he?

I dropped off a photo of him and a note at the shelter for the nice lady volunteer. She hasn't been in yet this week, if I don't hear from the shelter or her by Sunday, I will check back there early next week.
The shelter staff looked at Nino's photo and agreed he's gorgeous and told me that the lady is still looking for a Maine Coon, she hasn't had any luck finding one yet. I'm pretty sure that she doesn't have any other cats at this time so that is a good thing if Nino would be happiest as an only cat.

Can you post some more photos of Nino when he settles down a bit?

Basically yes he got a clean bill of health and he is neutered. He's on the medication for preventive measures, just in case there is an underlying infection somewhere and the diarrhea medication, even though he's had none when he was in the hospital. They didn't vaccinate him because of his fever, but I am to bring him back after he is finished his medication and if all is okay with him, he will be vaccinated then. Then he is good to go.

Thank you very much Vermontcat. I really appreciate this. I think having so many cats around is just too overwhelming for him.

I sure will.

Thank you cassiesmom.
