Good for you, Jenn! The little guy looks like quite a character.

God bless you, Jenn and Dave, and God bless you, Melissa and Hercules/Barney!

Love ,
Pat and cats

This is wonderful news!!! I'm so glad that I guessed right. I also think that the name Barney would be perfect for this little boy. Hopefully his stool sample will be all clear so Jenn can adopt him very soon. She may still need to watch his stools because stress can also cause coccidia to return. This really is turning into a wonderful summer of PT adoptions.

Well as you know Jenn has her hands full at the moment with Sebastian. I might of found a home for Hercules however. My one co-worker's girlfriend wants a cat/kitten. I told him about Hercules and I hope I'm making the right decision. I think I'll know for sure when they visit with him and see how they interact with him to know for sure.

I'm so attached....but it is what is best for him. They said they do want a kitten that will cuddle but of course he will take sometime, I tried to talk them into getting 2 but since the girlfriend is still in college and not living together the guy (my co-worker) will only take in 1 plus he wants to get a dog at some point so that way they could possibly be buddies.

I told them if it doesn't work out and he just doesn't fit in I will take him back.

I guess they want to visit him this weekend and if she likes him she will take him with her for a week at her house (I believe she is with her parents at the moment) and then when my co-worker moves into his house at the end of the month and things are settled then they will bring Hercules to his house.

I just hope that he doesn't get out of the house and run away or something. I explained to them that he has been through a lot in a short amount of time but he does seem to love other cats which I am sorta sad by him going to a place where there isn't any but hopefully that will be good for him.

I've attached some photos of him I took recently while he was suckling on Apollo. Yep, Apollo's a boy but he's being Hercules mom.

These pictures sure are cute. When I adopted Alani & Blaze I was told that since they were so bonded that they had to be adopted together. I'm so glad that this was the case because now they have each other as playmates and they won't bug my older cats as much. Hopefully things will work out for Hercules and that this will be the right home for him. Please keep us updated. Good luck.

Melissa,

Rescue can be very wearing on your psyche. It's so difficult to get these babies through such difficult times only to have to find homes for them. You've done your job, and a great job I might add. All you can do now is a home visit, reference check and if all goes well, he will be in a wonderful forever home. Be proud of yourself and the work you do. Sleep well knowing you've given another orphan a great home.

Rescue is hard. Especially when you get attached. Rule of thumb is if you don't name them, they aren't yours. Easier said than done, I know.
