Make a trip to the state of Washington, where I might adopt THIS cat!

Because we are contracting for THIS bruiser instead! We might be able to get him in the first of February! (much depends on his “socialization skills” and when he can safely be separated from his mum!) I put some $$ on him!
oh boy! I’m expecting! I need a pickle and some ice cream!

Dave didn’t go for him. I thought the cat was adorable. Very friendly and social-able.
Dave noted he looks “nothing” like Ruggles
and was very sour looking standing 5 feet away

I gave the people a sizable donation, told them to keep my previous deposit and suggested they keep him as the “office cat”. He certainly had the disposition for it.
but Dave didn’t go for him.
I cried all the way home

where I am on the internet wifi-ing at the RV park. Cool!
I am scheduled to turn up to meet the cat tomorrow am. He is still some miles east now.

Now I am more worried than ever that I will be expecting too much. Well, I will just let it all unfold the way it will.

I know I know..there are plenty of cats right here that I could adopt..in our own town. Our shelters are over flowing. But look at my sweet old timer…wasn’t he dear? The cat I am going to visit with looks like him…a little

what do you think? I am worried that he looks too much like my other cat and so then I will “subiminately” want him to act exactly like my dear departed cat.
But I know my little old cat can’t be replicated. The house is mighty empty without him and this guy is kinda cute. Yeah, I’ll go see him. (He looks pretty scared in this photo!)
