Meet Dickens! This little guy (approximately 4 months old) came to me last week. I thought I saw a cat jump into the engine of one of my cars. When I got ready to leave a few hours later I banged on my hood and nothing came out so I decided to pop the hood to just make sure. There he sat on top of the engine- shivering. I scooped him up and though he was freezing he light up with the biggest purr. The weathermen were forecasting storm and wind chills below zero in the next few days so I could not leave him outside. I put him in my guest room with food, water and a litter box. Off to the clinic he went that afternoon for a quick FELV/FIV test (both negative). I put out flies the next day and have a "found" ad running but no one has claimed him. Given I found him around the holidays I decided he needed a holiday name - he looked like a Dickens so there you go. He has settled right in with the other nine felines and three dogs. He is not afraid of anything and is a real love bug, full of energy and his motor never stops. I think he is happy!
