Douglas

May 20, 2015

Douglas is 7 or 8 months old, but only 5 teeny pounds. The vet's diagnosis is malnutrition when he was young. I adopted him from Carol's Ferals where I volunteer. He was found in the woods and brought to us! That's the only information I received. He was ear tipped before staff realized he was friendly and adoptable. His ear is healing slowly. His ears are very sensitive as they were likely frostbitten. He somehow survived the harsh winter, as he was likely born last September. Douglas has landed in the lap of luxury. He loves his toys, his food, fresh water, soft beds, and his new cat and people family. We don't know how much larger he will get, but he is 5 pounds of joy to have around. He will be uber spoiled forever!

I just love his expressive eyes, saying "play with me, I am sooooo happy!". I can see Douglas is already a spoiled little boy. Thank you for rescuing him and all the work you do for Carol's Ferals.

Looks like Douglas is very lucky he picked you for his family and he has feline company too.

What a darling boy Douglas is! My Isybelle is almost 7 and still small as a kitten ~ she's, maybe, 6 pounds and pure joy too!

Yes, the cage is where he was being rehabilitated at our facility after he was neutered. I actually had the shift to take care of these cats one evening, saw Douglas, and fell in love. Fortunately, my husband released his ban on more cats in our household (Douglas makes 4) and I was able to take Douglas home. Douglas is actually alpha cat at our house now, just one month later!

There is something that is so appealing about Douglas. I'd love to cuddle with him. He also looks like an "old soul." Bless you for giving him a loving forever home as this little guy definitely needed a break in life. I hope we see him again as he grows older.

Whoa, a new kitten that hasn't been featured before?! It seems like it's been reduxes-only months! Not that I mind seeing the same cuties pop up again, but there are so many other adorable kittens out there, it didn't quite seem fair that the same ones kept getting featured.

I love you for rescuing Douglas from the cage. I foster so I know that they have to stay in the cage so people can see them and they get adopted but I always feel bad when I bring them back from being fostered in a home where they had everything and love to being in a cold cage that they don't understand.... Douglas is an itty bitty petty kitty and a black beauty (I have one too). God bless you for adopting him and for the work you do at Carol's Ferals.
