Gorgeous and lucky to have found someone to love him forever. It's spooky, when I saw this thread I had to check and see what state you live in! I found a similar cat "Thomas" who had been been brought to a housing project nearby, and Thomas managed to get lost. He had one eye sugically removed, and was also neutered and declawed to top it off! I had seen a post on one of the cats boards and it took a while to find it again. To make a long story short, Thomas after being lost in the city for eight months was re-united with his owners who lived quite a ways from here. It took 10 days and three people helping me try to track down his owners. I should have kept that cat...awesome and sweet large lap-pumpkin! Congrats on your new and very handsome boy. Was his eye taken out by a vet? Or was it injured in some way?
