Meet Louis

Following the excitement of Jack being adopted, I was tasked with bringing home this little orange fluff ball.
I will not be fooled by a string, you must PET ME!!

Why are you holding that flash box thingie?
Pet me!!
He showed up on the doorstep of one of our wonderful adopters dirty and disheveled.  She of course, immediately took him in and fed him.  Unfortunately her adopted cat did not much care for another cat being in the house, at all!  So she was forced to keep Louis in her bathroom.  She reached out to us and asked if we could take him in, which of course, we did.

This little guy is a LOVE, he will literally weave around your legs until you sit down and pet him.  At which point he circles you, climbs on you and does everything possible to get you to continue petting him.  This makes it very difficult to take photos of him to share here.  Louis has been sneezing so we suspect he caught a URI when he was being vetted for vaccinations and neutering.  Also he has brown stuff in his ears and upon closer inspection (which is next to impossible because he wont' hold still), I discovered he has several spots on his chest and chin where hair is missing and small blemishes are on his skin.  I think this might be ringworm but we will have to wait to see what the vet says on Monday.  Overall, this is a HAPPY little guy and he's happy to be in our home even if he has to stay in the cat room by himself for now.
