last thursday night, randy and i went to Menard’s on the west side of town to buy some flowers and mulch.\u00a0 after quite a time doing that, we headed out of the parking lot, right next to the big electric substation.\u00a0 and there in the gravel, randy saw a kitty.<\/p>\n

we stopped the car.\u00a0 the kitty came up to us.\u00a0 he was a little skittish, but very, very friendly and sweet.<\/p>\n

i said “i’m going to take him home.”\u00a0 i tried to call kevin to confer with him, but he didn’t answer.<\/p>\n

i walked back into menard’s and bought a litter box, a carrier and some cat treats while randy played with the kitty out in the parking lot.<\/p>\n

we got him into the carrier and he didn’t meow much as we carried him home.\u00a0 we did stop at a new soft-serve frozen place that is the BEST PLACE EVER, but then we went right home.<\/p>\n

i fixed a place for him in our little basement bathroom.\u00a0 he seemed pretty darn happy in there.<\/p>\n

HERE IS HIS CUTE PICTURE.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

kevin thought we should name him Les Paul, since i found him on les paul’s birthday.\u00a0 on friday i took les to the vet.\u00a0 he seemed utterly at ease.\u00a0 here he is, in the examining room.\u00a0 after he’d sprawled out on the scale, he jumped onto the little couch and relaxed.\u00a0 he’s very, very mellow.\u00a0 and very, very sweet.\u00a0 even though he’d been abandoned at menard’s, clearly he’s been around people before.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

friday night, he had the run of the entire basement, which is pretty darned big.\u00a0 i kept waking up, hearing him crying.<\/p>\n

in the morning kevin got up first and found that the kitty had sprayed and sprayed, and sprayed some more.\u00a0 Les and winnie\u00a0 had an encounter, and apparently les jumped on winnie’s back and bit him.<\/p>\n

kevin then said that his name was “leaving soon.”<\/p>\n

uh oh.\u00a0 i called a couple people, asking if anybody would take a cat.\u00a0 i was unhappy about it, because i felt that poor little les deserved a second chance.<\/p>\n

kevin agreed that we could get him neutered and see how he does.<\/p>\n

jim suggested we move Les to the hottub room off the bedroom – their dogs have stayed there plenty of times, and all the animals love the hot tub room.<\/p>\n

really, who wouldn’t?<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

i took les to the APL this morning for the snipping.\u00a0 somebody told me that it’s not going to change him immediately, and we need to give him three weeks of adjustment.\u00a0 i’m borrowing a big cage so he can sit in that amongst us and winnie can get comfortable around him.<\/p>\n

meanwhile, amy fixed him a little fort under the chair in the hot tub room.\u00a0 if amy could get a job arranging pets, she could make a lot of money at it.\u00a0 she’s always swaddling her dogs, and dragging mollie into a bed for maximum comfort and relaxation.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

he’s SO CUTE!!!\u00a0 i’m hoping that he’ll work out here.\u00a0 worst case, my friend erica’s mom lives in the country and would let him be an outside cat.\u00a0 but he NEEDS to sit on somebody’s lap; he’s really, really affectionate and loving and gentle and sweet.<\/p>\n

except around winnie.<\/p>\n

but hopefully he’s going to change for the better.\u00a0\u00a0 at the APL, one woman i talked to said that he’d have a 50% chance of not spraying anymore after neutering, but another woman i know who knows a lot about cats said she’s confident that he’ll change.\u00a0 so let’s go with that.<\/p>\n

ok then,<\/p>\n
