Yeah he looks to be quite the big one, we still need a picture of him with a Banana for scale though

My friend's cat has evolved a bit.

He used to eat about half a can of food, go sit for a bit, go take a dump, and then go back to eating.

NOW, he sees him grabbing the can of food, so he immediately heads to the litter box to make sure there's room for num nums.

He's learning

Pff, I knew a dog who was WAY smarter. I had to go over and feed a friend of the family's dogs while their owner was away for the day. They were hungry, but they were also lonely and wanted attention. I'm sat down a few metres away from their food bowls. One of them kept running back and forth between me and the food bowl, snatching a mouthful of food here and a petting there. The other one was the smart one, and dragged his food bowl over towards me so I could pet him while he ate. Clever dog.

So the lesson here is you can compare Butterscotch's size to a banana but with out the peel?

I think my favorite part of those videos is when he's playing on that teeny-tiny drum set. :kimchi:

So either Butterscotch misses me, or my pants are just that awesome.

Also, not perfect for scale, but here he is next to some relatively small feet:

Good to know!

We've decided that we'll make the call before November ends, we keep on going back and forth on it. If we do end up deciding to adopt him out, we'd both really like to do so through this thread. You have all been so awesome and supportive and we'd really like for the updates to keep on happening even if he does get a new forever home. So if you're reading this, and you're interested, keep it in mind but don't necessarily get your hopes up.

Instead, enjoy Butterscotch making some biscuits:

Clever dog.

Was at a party once where a friend and I stayed up so late we watched the sun go up. The host's dog woke up and joined us and started fishing for pets; sat real close, shoved his head under our hands, and so on. After a while he trotted off and I joked, you watch, he thinks he's softened us up now so we'll take him for a walk. A minute later my buddy taps me on the shoulder and there's the drat dog looking at us with his leash in his mouth.

We also decided we'd keep a foster pet through the end of November before deciding whether or not to keep him.

That was three years ago. Enjoy your new cat.

On the other side: I do foster coordinating for a rescue and while I like foster fails because it means that the animal has found a happy home. But I have one foster home that is wonderfully committed to fostering animals no matter how long it takes for them to find the perfect family because then they can lee fostering for us.

Love dat basketball cat though.

Everyone says this to us all the time, but we've fostered a dozen or so animals so far and have been really disciplined about it. We've thought about keeping some, but we always do give ourselves the space to be smart about it.

Now, Butterscotch is clearly a special kinda dude, but giving him up would actually be easier than dog I gave up. I lost so many nights of sleep over that. I'm such a softie in fact that I haven't been willing to foster a dog ever since we gave him up, it just broke me up too much.

Cats are way easier. So anyway, we'll make the call and we'll see. As it is right now, he and our forever cat aren't quite where I'd want them to be before we make that kind of commitment.

You're really super sensible about what is clearly a difficult decision to make, kudos for that.

Butterscotch looks like you could poke him and it'd take a couple minutes him to go back to his normal shape
