A Rocky Balboa update!

 

Laurel,

 Hi there! Yes we adopted Rocky this past Sunday. You know he is the SWEETEST cat ever. I am not sure if it is the Persian in him or what. My 3 kids (5,4, and 1) are so taken with him, and he loves them soooo much. He is so gentle. We bathed him last night and typical of a cat he wasn't too excited. Not once did his claws come out. He "grinned and beared it". We took him to the vet yesterday and he did awesome. He just sat there and purred while the vet cleaned his ears, and took some scrapings of his skin. They are ruling out ringworm, though they think it is his skin from the mats. We took your coupons to Mud Bay yesterday and the kids and I picked out a collar, got him on some super pricey Persian food :) and he is so happy! We will be sending some follow-up pics once his coat has grown back in. He is just so sweet and can't get enough petting, brushing, hugging and loving. Thank you so much for rescuing him and taking such good care of him until we found him. Eventually when Rocky is comfortable with his surroundings, us, and the house, we will be in to get him a "friend". Thank you so much again and we LOVE your organization!!
