I'm reminded by seeing follow-up posts that I didn't let everyone know what happened to Pepper. I did offer to take him because it became more and more obvious from emails exchanged that his current foster mom was too overwhelmed with other responsibilities to take the best care of him, and she knew that. However, she received an offer from a couple in Los Angeles who specialize in caring for CH cats so Pepper is going to them. His foster mom will be able to visit him often. A good result all around.
