Then it will be a matter of getting Trixie, my senior Snowshoe rescue to accept this sweet boy into our home & family.

I wish I could translate "You were once homeless & hungry" and "there is plenty of love & food to go around here" into cat language.

Hopefully, the huge cat tree I bought her will be assembled today. Maybe that will help.
