He was released from quarantine on Tuesday and went to his first vet visit. The vet guessed he was about 16 weeks old. He got dewormed and all of his shots and tests for some things and will go back in a month for boosters. I'll probably schedule his neutering for the same time. He is friendly, playful (we've never had a kitten this playful) and gets along with the dog. He loves being held and purrs super loudly. None of the no-kill shelters are taking cats and at this point, we're all attached, so he's probably here to stay. Even dh likes him. Our other ginger cat is afraid of most men so dh can't usually get close to him (he was also dumped about 3 yrs ago). Here are a couple of pics of little Cooper. at the vet (btw the little turd pooped and peed in the crate on the way home. DD and I were practically holding our heads out the window on the way home-thankfully it was about 4 minutes before we got home. When we got home I washed his feet, which were all poopy, in soapy water and he just let me. He didn't struggle much at all while I scrubbed and rinsed him. He wasn't happy about being all wet afterward though. I've never seen so much foot-shaking. DH was kind enough to clean out the crate for me ). http://instagr.am/p/6QH46ZKSBv

He's adorable! My cat would always manage to pee, poop, and vomit on the way to the vet. I'd arrive and ask if they could clean the carrier for me since he hit the trifecta.

He's so cute! Beautiful eyes!
He reminds me of our latest addition Mr.P. We thought Mr.P was a female, so we named her Penelope (Penny.) Now he's Pennington, Mr.P, or PigPen. Funny because we all kept saying he acted so different compared to our two females. Now we know why.

He's so cute. He looks just like my kitty Gonzo. Who is also a snugglebug and purrs loudly.

I call the carrier pooping "grudge pooping". I have 2 cats that do it. They are pissed they are in the carrier/at the vet/traveling, and they grudge poop. I have also had nervous poppers, who poop on you or in a carrier if nervous- you will know the difference by their attitude. Grudge poppers don't give shit- or maybe a shit is all they give.
I'm so glad your naughty biting cat found a loving home! Let's be real, boring cats are boring. Your cat is comlplicated, emotional and not boring. those are the best cats- the cats with a story. My Rocko is 17 and was originally a dumped-behind-a-grocery store cat. Is she grateful? No. Is she nice? No. But she is not boring. You can name him Quarantine and them you will have a non boring cat too!

So glad he is home to stay. He looks like my guy, except for the eyes. My little boy has orange eyes that match his fur.
He is a snuggler too. He purred nonstop until he turned one.
