    Aww, he's a cutie! You're doing great socializing him! He loves that ear scritch.

    Awww! He's adorable! Reminds me of when I first took Logan in. Wish I had had an extra dog crate. That would of made taming him and taking him to the vets SO much easier. lol!

    I'd recommend getting some Comfort Zone Feliway. It really helped calm Logan. If there is no outlet nearby for the plug in version, then I'd try the spray and use it around the crate and on his bedding.

    Good luck!!

    Oh, what a beautiful little guy and what great news how well he is coming along.. and what a fine job of taming him you are doing!

    Thank you for taking him in and loving him so well!

    LOL He/she is much too cute to saddle him with that name but,
    Joey or Josie is nice.

    We are naming him Joseph if he's a boy and Josephine if she's a girl

    No more "bitey-man". He has been with us 5 days and hasn't done anything but hiss. Last night, we picked him up by the scruff of his neck and moved him from his litter box to his newly made bed. He runs to his food bowl when we go to fill it and we can have the door open while we're cleaning his cage and he makes no attempt to escape (quite a difference from the first night when he was trying to get out and testing every opening).

    My cat Moon went in the garage for the first time last night and Moon looks like he could be Joseph's mother. Joseph's face "LIT UP" when he saw Moon. (See attached pic...Moon is the cat on the left....Bean is on the right....Sunny is my pup but you all know that... ). Moon wasn't too interested and walked right out but it made me sad for Joseph. He must miss his mom!!

    Thanks for all the great advice. I am really surprised how smoothly this is going. His quarantine is over tomorrow (clearly...he is healthy) and we are going to start holding him and carrying him everywhere.

    Stay tuned....

    Peaches is around 3-5 years old (thinking closer to five) and she used to be feral. Loves human attention and is ok with the other cats unless they get too close to her then we hear her faint hiss and she isn't afraid to smack them. (she doesn't have much of a voice poor cat).

    He is so cute! Maybe he wasn't feral at all....just alone and scared.
