Hi Everyone
So today I arrive home this evening and see my bf (aka grooverite) sitting on our stoop with a bowl of kitty food. My heart grew concerned on what the heck he was doing, when the corner of my eye caught a glimpse of this gorgeous kitty
Well, needless to say, he was not only gorgeous but friendly!! Sweet as pie
So we lured him with some food, and now we've brought him in. We're keeping him in our computer room, separated from the rest of the family so he can get adjusted to his new environment. He's eaten (quite a lot!
), allows us to pet him, has rubbed himself all over us, is super playful, so we think he was a former house cat. He is sweet as can be, but we have a few concerns:
-We have a 3 yr old female kitty (Fifi)
-We have a 3 yr old male kitty (Toby)
-We don't know if this kitty has FeLv/Fiv
-He is very friendly, but has growled and hissed here and there, and are not sure if it's bc of the other cats scent or aggression towards us?
We have every intention of taking this kitty to the vet asap to get neutered, tested, vaccinated, cleaned, etc. but we want to take every precaution necessary to avoid our kitties getting FeLv/Fiv (in case he does have it - we're hoping he doesn't!) and want to make sure that we do everything possible to integrate him into our established family.
Are there certain things we should be doing or not doing?? We would really love and appreciate any and all advice you have for us!
In the meanwhile, here are some pictures of this handsome kitty!!
(Can someone guess his breed??)
