Last week I discovered this little baby in our shed out back and watched from afar for 24 hours to see if mama would come back for him. She never did, so I brought him in and started bottle feeding him. We figured he was about 2 weeks old because his eyes were open but his ear flaps were down and he couldn't really walk. He is growing like a weed, weighed in today at 300 grams, up from 211 when I first started him on formula. Believe it or not, I am not insisting we keep him. The dog was like meh. The cats immediately felt a disturbance in the force and nope right out whenever they come near. Our older black cat, IzzieBella quietly hisses, but no growling or anything. DD's friend loves cats and is going to ask her roommate if she can have him. She already has a young cat and a playmate might be good for them both. Besides, if we keep him, I might never get the Maine Coon cat I have wanted. Only thing that is tough with such a small thing is that it has been way too many years since I have had to get up and feed a living creature in the middle of the night. I am getting too old, LOL. Hard to resist such a sweet face, though.
