Adopting Dr. McDreamy!

Okay, so his name is Digger, and we're thinking of calling him Dr. DeLorian McDreamy (Dr. D) for short. He is a cat in rescue, and he looks like he may have great potential to become a therapy cat (we have therapy dogs here, and we've had a request for a therapy cat).

Our Milo is wonderful, but he doesn't like to travel in the car and he still has kitten wiggliness in him. Great for fun at home....but not great when he needs to sit in the lap of someone in a bed or wheelchair for a bit.

This guy just wants to be hugged. We are in the final phases of adoption, and are excited to finally be able to talk to the interviewer soon to ask questions. Hoping he is okay with dogs, as we have 4 small, cat-friendly dogs.

Milo loves the company of other cats, so I think Milo will have a very short adjustment period.

Anyhow, here he is! Introducing, Dr. McDreamy! We haven't met him in person yet. Hopefully, this weekend, with any luck!

I can see why you would call him McDreamy!! good luck!

I'm betting he'll be a purrrrfect therapy kitty. He looks so lovable. Good luck!

He is lovely, sweet-looking, and somewhat large! What a find!

I want a hug! That is so precious... and in the last pic he looks so happy to be hugged with is little eyes closed and a smile on his face. Awww....

He's ABSOLUTELY GORGEOUS!! Looks like a bluepoint Siamese. Only once in my life have I been hugged by a cat... one of our rescues. He found a good home. I always thought that he would have made a good therapy cat. And I am envious, b/c that is something I would like to do.

Awww, what a handsome boy. And I love cats that hug!

Big, beautiful, contented kitty.

he is so beautiful...the name fits perfectly! I really hope he ends up working out because he looks like a perfect fit to be a therapy cat.

Oh he's a cutie!! He sure does look like he loves giving and getting hugs! The look on his face in the first and last picture are complete nirvana!

He is SOOOO handsome and definitely deserves the name "Dr. McDreamy".

awww he is very handsome and very huggable!

My childhood cat hugged me... but only when I was about to put him in the tub! Frankie does if she's in the mood which isn't very often at all.

he's BEAUTIFUL!!

He is gorgeous!

Very handsome cat and I love how he hugs!

What a DOLL

He's beautiful! He seems like he'll be the perfect therapy kitty. And his name suits him so well! What a handsome guy!!!!!!!

I had to come back and look at him again...there's something so serene in those beautiful eyes Just beautiful.

Bella & Stan both hug me, but never for very long...
