Meet Teddy: From house guest to family member ...

 

Greetings, friends! It has been a little while since I posted an update on the so-called house guest. Well, (no surprise!) he is now officially the newest member of our family.

He has had all of his shots and two Fel-leuk tests which both came out negative. He has had Bravecto for preventative treatment to kill any fleas or eggs he may have had that our vet could not find,

We have still been keeping him downstairs as we gradually introduce him to the other cats, My husband brings him upstairs once a day after he gets home from work and allows him to run around in our bedroom for a couple of hours. It did not take long for my hubby to fall in love with him ...

The next step is to make an appointment for his neuter which our vet's office will call us about when they have their December schedule available.

More on our new Guest ...

He spent the night sleeping in the cat litter box. I made a quick trip to the store to pick up two bags of Purina Kitten Chow before work. When I went downstairs to feed him, I was able to coax him out. It wasn't long before he began rubbing on my hand and seemed to enjoy the attention of being petted ...

The plan is to make an appointment with our vet as soon as we can get him in for an exam and a FeLuek test to make sure that he is safe to be around our other cats. I pray he is negative. He is so sweet!

Our new "guest"

Last week, I saw this small little fur baby literally sitting in the middle of my road in front of my house. I only saw him/her one time since then until just tonight! And, ever since that time, I kept praying to God that I did not see it lying DEAD in front of my house coming home from work at 11pm at night!

This kitten was so hungry it, although VERY skittish, let me pick it up and take it straight downstairs to our basement and into our large dog cage. I continued to feed it and give it water and a litter box and blanket. While waiting for my husband to get home to figure out WHAT to do with it! We have A LOT of red fox residing in our neighborhood who would LOVE to kill it for its' dinner! I REFUSE to allow that to happen - even if we have to surrender it to one of our local animal shelters!

I have to keep it separated from our other inside cats because I KNOW it probably has fleas, worms, etc. But at least it will be safe!

Happy Labor Day!

Feline Fun Fact!

What is the folkloristic origin of cats having 9 Lives?

• The old belief that a cat has nine lives goes back to ancient Egypt. The cat-headed goddess, Bast , was associated with the benevolent aspect of Hathor, the Lioness, and was said to have nine lives. The Egyptians did not fear the cat, but rather reverenced it, and they elevated cats far above the role of domestic pet.
