How right you are!I'll bet he's already made buddies with my mom's cat Tigey, who looked like his identical twin and would have been around the same age.
My Tom, who was a ginger cat too, was friend to all cats, I'm sure he was there to give Artie a warm welcome and lead him to the best place, where there's the best food.
Tom's age was uncertain, but I reckon he would have had Artie's age today.
