His name will be changed soon, but he came as Jack so that's all I know to call him at this point. lol Here are the few pictures I was able to get. He's like Nora and runs when I point the camera at him. lol More to come soon, as I'm sure you're well aware that I love to post pictures. lol He's the biggest of the three, and in between as far as how soft his fur is (Thomas is very coarse and Walter is VERY soft) and he is very stout. He is VERY friendly, he already comes when I call his name and he jumps into my lap and lets me pet him and purrs. His eyes are really dark compared to his brothers'. Thomas has bright yellow eyes, Walter has light yellow/hazel eyes, and Jack has really dark eyes, almost the same color as his orange markings.









Nose to nose with Walter


All three boys


Can you tell the cats like to scratch at this corner?? lol Oh well. Hazards of having cats.


He's doing good. Nora is being much better about him than she was about Thomas and Walter. The boys don't seem to recognize each other much. I wasn't sure if they would or not, being apart for a month. Maybe it's just the stress of being in a new place for Jack. Not sure. Maybe they'll come around.

I'm dying here! I just realized he has orange spots on his nose!! His brothers and Nora have black spots on their noses, but I've never heard of orange spots! OMG, SOOOO cute!! It looks like he stuck his nose in a bag of cheetos! lmao!

Oh, and their foster mom gave me ANOTHER carrier! She also gave me one of those long stuffed kick toys. So nice!!
I felt bad b/c I could tell she was about to cry when she left.

You see furry cuteness, I see vet bills, more mouths to feed, hair EVERYWHERE, poop boxes to maintain, vomit to clean up, Cat toys to step on, and don't forget...cats trying to kill you as you walk down a flight of stairs. Mix that with a cat's favorite game...smell my butt...and you have hell.

You forgot the other favorite game - butt-in-the-face.
You sound just like Gary, and he wouldn't trade ANY of it, not for one second or any amount of money. And he's living with 8 cats (and me) in an RV - imagine THAT one.

The problem is, my mom has a dog named Jack and she would get incredibly ticked off if we named a cat that also. His foster mom called him Jackson, so as of yet, unless we come up with something better, that is what I'm calling him (and what I put on my sig).
