Meet baby Milo - you know you want to adopt him
Edited on Mon Jun-01-09 10:10 PM by prole_for_peace




He showed up in a friends yard with a sibling. They were both wild but she fed them for about two weeks. She noticed that the sibling started looking sickly and one day when she got home from work it was dead near her front porch. She took Milo to the vet for shots and a check up. She has 6 dogs and was concerned for his welfare around them. I told her I would take him as a last resort if she couldn't find anyone else. Well guess what.... Anyway he is living in a spare room in our garage for now. My job was to "break him" from being wild. As of last week it was mission accomplished: maybe a little too much. He loves to walk under our feet.

If anyone is looking for a sweet VERY playful kitty and you are near Houston, do I have the cat for you... I already have 5 and I don'tknow that I am ready to take on another one. The ones I have don't like each other so it is more like 10 cats in the house.

1. Oh, I know where the name came from...
One of my favorite dog & cat movies. Do you have a Otis dog?

2. I don't have any dogs...
yet... But he was named by my friend who found him. That was probably her reasoning.

I call him "stinky butt" because I have never had a cat so small make such a bad smell in the litter box.

3. I love orange kitties
I have one next to me as I type. Unfortunately, I can't adopt and besides I'm too far away.

As for the smell coming from the litter box, I was also astounded at how smelly the stool of a kitten is. I even mentioned it to the vet, when I took him for a check up. I thought that smell couldn't be normal; he must be sick. HaHa. Wow, was I wrong.

4. I already have a sweet orange Milo, but this Milo looks like a cutie, too.
My Milo kitty:


I'm nowhere near Houston or else I'd be tempted. Hope you can find a good home for him soon; he;s adorable. :loveya:

5. Dang
We're looking for a kitten for our two year old cat (she's driving the senior cats, and us, crazy), but I told my fiance he can pick the kitten. He choosing to get one from his mom who is bottle feeding two after the mother was chased off by some little brat in her neighborhood. He's so cute-I love orange babies....sigh. Good luck finding him a home. He's too cute so it shouldn't take long.
