I figured a journal thread would be the easiest way of keeping track of Arcturus' progress and health, so here we are.
Above is from the first time I met him, he's a bear of a cat and seems in pretty good shape. He was taken in by Cats Protection having been a stray and during a routine check he was found to be FIV+. He was at the shelter from around the start of the year and has spent the last seven weeks living with his foster mum. He made a complete turn around from being miserable and hissy in the shelter to quietly affectionate and spent the first night sleeping on his foster mum's bed! We're guessing his age to be five/six, and from how he behaves in the foster home it's clear he's been a pet before.
I'm picking him up on 4th May and I'll be home quite a lot for several months so hopefully he'll settle in nicely. Onwards and upwards!
