Kitten Dylan Has Found a Home

One final update on the stray kitten we fostered for a few weeks: the lady at the Humane Society confirmed that he'd been adopted last weekend, and yesterday, we got a message (via online photo comment) from his new family:



We're glad Dylan found a good home!

Cats Don't Care About Spelling

Whether you spell his name "Dylan" or "Dillan," this adorable kitten is ready to leave our spare bathroom and go to a good home in the Portland, Oregon/Vancouver, Washington metro area!

See those handy Twitter and Facebook buttons on PetFinder.com? You know what to do. KTHXBAI

ADDENDUM (06 Feb 2011): It turns out that WCGHS previously had a cat named "Dylan" in their system, so they had to enter a different spelling to get Stray Kitten into the database. But I also enjoyed our vet's telephone-based spelling: VILAN. (Our two cats would probably agree with that.)

The Kitten Dylan Chronicles

As you know, Bob, we're currently fostering a stray kitten. We're keeping him in the guest bathroom right now so our two other cats won't feel their territory is being threatened. (Jasper and Tye seem to be dealing with it pretty well, so we'll experiment with letting Dylan out next week.)

Anyway, we set up a webcam to make sure kitten Dylan isn't getting into too much trouble. This is pretty much how he spends his days:

Sleeping...

...enjoying supervised playtime with Tye...

...and investigating the webcam.

He does like to crawl around, so I set up a cardboard rampart around the netbook running the surveillance. So far, apart from spilling his water bowl all over the floor once, he hasn't gotten into too much trouble. Knock on wood.

As always, if you know anyone who would like to adopt Dylan, please contact us!
