    OMG!! A baby meezer!!! Thank you for taking him in. Don't worry. I've failed miserably at fostering. Ask my 7.

    A Sphynx owner friend of mine has a beautiful white Sphynx with stunning blue eyes like Frankie. She named him Sinatra!!!!

    Congrats on failing miserably!!! Have a wonderful life, Frankie!!! Don't forget pictures, please!!!

    Yep, Frank Sinatra is who Frankie is named after too. Funny I usually have trouble deciding on names. I knew he was Frankie from the first time I saw those baby blues. I was sort of waiting to see if they changed color. They didn't.

    We are off to the vet for his check up and shots this morning at 11. Fingers crossed for us, please?

    I think Chip is starting to crack in his opinion of Frankie. He has started playing pawsies with him under the bathroom door, hissing all the time but still having fun.

    This just brightens up my Monday morning. I'm so happy Frankie is now inside and on his way to see the white coats.
    I am also hoping the other two will come around and let you take them in......to at least get them checked and neutered.
    Our goal in life should be - to be as good a person as our dog thinks we are.

    Thank you for the siggy, Michelle!

    Maybe this is just what Chip needs - a kitten brother to work off his energy!

    Good luck at the vet's, Frankie!

    I'm glad the pros outweighed the cons and you took him in.

    Frankie is a real cutie and it's good to know he's safe now. Hope you can get his brothers' too, at least for a while, until you can find homes for them. I'm in love with that orangie.

    Fister and I are keeping our paws and fingers crossed for a good vet visit.

    We are home!!!

    Frankie didn't much care for his first bus ride. He yelled all the way there and back. In fact, he pulled a joke on one rider. We stopped to pick up a guy on his way to work. Frankie was quiet until we went a few blocks, then started meowing again. The guy finally asked the driver if we had a cat on the bus. He thought the driver was pulling a joke on him some how. He couldn't see Frankie because Frankie was in his carrier in the cargo part of the bus.

    Frankie wowed them at the vet. He weights 2.8 pounds. He didn't care much for the cotton swab used for the worm check or the thermometer. He loved the kitty treat he got though.

    When the vet came in, he bounced out of his carrier, looked at her, stood on his hind legs and boxed with her. She said I'm going to have trouble with that one. He's going to be a handful. She has one just like him at home.

    He got treated for fleas, and wormed and some med for respitory infection. She checked his ears, no mites or any reason she could tell he may have hearing problems. She thought maybe he has 'selective hearing'. We will see.

    He goes back July 18th for his booster and rabies shots. Then we can do his neutering any time after that.

    We thank you for all the support and luvies.
