August 4

Finn is settling in and getting more comfortable every day.  My daughter stopped by to spend some time with Finn on Saturday while I was at the Adoption Center.  Finn was enjoying being cuddled on the couch.  When she put him on the floor and started to leave. he actually tried to follow her out of the room.  This is the first time he has made an effort to leave his room.  We are waiting until we move in a few weeks to let him have more space to roam.  I don't think he will do much exploring, but we want him to understand that he can check out his surroundings.

On another note, we do have another blind cat in the shelter.  Buddy is about 6 years old and 100% blind.  He is a curious fellow and spends much of the day exploring the perimeter of the shelter. Buddy loves to eat and his previous owner indulged him, so Buddy needs to lose a few pounds. He is now eating a healthy diet and is constantly checking out the other cats as he wanders through the room.  In just a little while, Buddy will be available for adoption.  We love him at the shelter and know that he will soon find his new home.  His elderly owner passed away and her husband was not physically able to continue to care for Buddy.  Here is a picture of our handsome guy. He squeezed himself into the condo and was laying on his side posing for the camera.
