Tiny Tex

October 9, 2011

forkoy1965 says: Tiny Tex was discovered roaming about a Texas Roadhouse parking lot after my family finished celebrating a birthday dinner. I left my daughter and her friend to keep an eye on him, while my wife & returned home so that I could grap my trap and some tuna. This scenario worked well. Back home we got him up to our vet for examination and testing. Five-months old. Clear on all counts... just a fever and fleas. Treated for both he came home with us for a week before returning him to the vet to be 'fixed'. While we couldn't keep him (we already have 9-cats and 2-dogs), but were lucky in so much that one of my wife's co-workers had just lost one of her elder cats to a stroke and wanted a new companion for her other feline. While it was a little tough handing over our Tiny Tex it was the best thing for all concerned and he now has a forever home.

He looks enough like Yoda, the black kitten I found wandering around a busy highway this summer, to be his brother! I am glad you rescued him!

TinyTex is a gorgeous heartbreaker. Those expressive green jade eyes. @forkoy1965--no one can say you don't love cats! Nine cats and two dogs! Bless you and your family.

I love Tiny Tex! ...and I love my three black (and sometimes white) "Texas kitties". Tiny Tex is now in my "Black kitties in Texas 'Hall of Fame'!"

Tiny Tex is my addiction this month. I keep coming back to that uncompromising look for more. He's like one of the bad boys Mama warned you about.

Thank you everyone. He was a great little fellow and we were so pleased that he turned out to be so friendly and not feral. He's doing well in his new home too!
