My most recent rescue "Tom Cat"

Uploaded: December 04, 2012

Description

Meet "Tom Cat" my most recent rescue. He had been around my office for a while and wanted to come in. After my eye surgery got him fixed, vaccinated and no Feline Leukemia or HIV. He is very friendly and like to rub up on you all the time, turn over and be petted. Here he is on his new house that now has a heated bed inside for the winter. He has his collar and tag and he knows he has a real home and people.
