I had another male orange tabby named "Bob" who died in the summer of 2010 due to cancer. Bob and I were together for 18 happy years and I was really sad when the time came to say goodbye. A couple of months later my sister sent to me an email with a kitten that needed fostering. The kitten was super cute but I wasn't sure how my other older cat (Miss Fifie) would react to a kitten. However, it did get me looking at the rescue website on a regular basis and then I saw Monty. He seemed kind of sad (but definitely handsome) in the picture, but I was still hesitant because of how Miss Fifie might take it. Anyway, on October 10, 2010, Monty was the "cat of the day" on the website and I thought to myself THAT'S IT - a sign!!! (10/10/10) I HAVE to see him!!!! So, Michelle was kind enough to rearrange her schedule for me to meet Monty and the rest is history. Miss Fifie (all 7 lbs of her vs. his now 17.3 lbs) did intimidate him initially (he lived upstairs for a while while she had the run of the house) but now he is right at home. He and I kind of have our own language as he talks all the time (but curiously silent for the video). He's a great cat and I am certainly the lucky one in all of this!! Thanks to all of the foster mom's who looked after him until he and I found each other!!!!Monty'sMom Bernicenoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34039605.post-21014006988763321352011-12-12T13:02:27.323-05:002011-12-12T13:02:27.323-05:00Meant to be!!!

Beth, did you decide to keep Sherman? We have a foster cat that we are trying to decide whether to keep. We just had an enquiry and our first response was oh no. Guess that says either we should keep him or we are just unsuitable foster parents.Robin Sarafinchanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11234333513754137884noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34039605.post-55184605123167271032011-12-11T20:55:53.585-05:002011-12-11T20:55:53.585-05:00Oh Beth, thank you for posting this.
