I saw him online , an animal shelter website. They told me he was old. I said I would come get him.
It was total love at first sight. He purrs when I speak to him. He likes to lie on a pillow on the lanai and get all warm and toasty .. those little old man bones soak up the warmth .. and he naps.
He is a Champion Napper.
Minette is years younger than he is .. they bonded right away. Even Honey, the young and huge cat loves him ..
This morning Merlin is acting a little differently. Minette and I are watching over him. She is in there now, under the bed, just keeping an eye on him.
I got him to eat some dry kibble, I wanted to do a happy dance when he was crunching away .. but then he stopped and seems to be sleeping again.
I am praying that he is just tired and bored. I am praying he will stay with me a bit longer .. a lot longer.
Minette and Honey and I need our 3rd Musketeer .. or should that be Mouseketeer ?
Say a little prayer .. for Merlin ..
Sweet sweet boy. I’m so glad you guys found each other. Hopefully he’s just got a little bug and will be good as new tomorrow.
ReplyDeleteI hope Merlin rallies, we had a much loved cat appear near death, and he rallied on his own, using one of his nine lives to live a good long time more.
ReplyDeletePraying for Merlin.
ReplyDeleteDearest Candace,
ReplyDeleteWhat a sweet little man he is!
May God grant him some more time with you...
Hugs,
Mariette
I sure hope your little fellow will be okay.
ReplyDeletePraying for sweet Merlin.
ReplyDeleteHe got up and had a snack and water and went back under the bed on his nest that I made with towels and soft pillow cases.
ReplyDeleteThat he walked at and drank is fabulous ... to me anyway :)
Thank you very very much for the good wishes.
