His background:
Possibly a year old, probably younger; brought to a local shelter as a stray; male black mackerel tabby/DSH; friendly, talkative, and gentle.
The shelter had nicknamed him Bobby, and my cousin/housemate had already written Mueller/Mewler as a potential name on our brainstorming list…so we just put the names together.
Here is His Resplendency:
Adorable kitty with an adorable name!! I have a feeling that name is going to grow on you as the next couple of years pass. Enjoy him – he’s soooooooo cute!!
I’d do some research before you write that letter if you want to ensure a response; I suggest a vigorous review of the work of Lazlo Toth if you want to his just the right tone.
He got sick with some damn virus, most likely from the shelter, a few days after we got him home, so we took him back and forth for nebulization and gave him meds too. Ever since he improved, he’s been very active and full of kitteny energy.
I am concerned about a lump on his upper right leg that I can feel. It is soft and he shows no pain, no symptoms. I am hoping it’s nothing more than a lipoma. Taking him tomorrow to have it checked.
Evidently it’s a swelling from his rabies injection site. I’m using warm compresses and gentle massage. He is perfectly fine otherwise. The doctor did not think aspiration was necessary. Breathing a sigh of relief.
What a cutie. Congratulations on your new friend.
