I went out to the garage and spent a little more time w/him. He let me brush him and clip his front claws which were like hypodermic needles. Upon closer inspection I noticed that his whiskers on the left side are broken off and his fur was a little crusty as though he may have been in a fight, I don't know. He hopped on my lap immediately and fell asleep. Now he's out there crying. Poor boy misses the attention now.
