You should have warned everyone to have a hanky handy..sniff.

Thank you for taking the reigns and saving this special boy.  Thanks to Char 
and Michael for giving him a loving home.

Let me add my thanks to everyone.

We got Boscoe to Char and Michael yesterday afternoon.  He was GREAT on the 
long car ride.  Even though we set up the back seat for him, he rode most of 
the way on my lap or on the driver's lap, or on the armrest between us.  He was 
looking out the window not scared at all.  He did go in the back once to use 
the litterbox we set up for him.  And he had some of my chicken salad sandwich.

He was instantly comfortable at Char and Michael's place.  He was NOT crazy 
about the dog but he'll adjust.  He was OK with the other cats, doing a little 
nose-sniffing.  He liked the cat trees and rubbed his cheek against one of 
them.  And he gave me a few forehead to forehead head butts before I left.

Talked to Char this morning and she tells me Boscoe is curled up on a pillow in 
the bed room.  And he's been following her around and talking to her.  It seems 
he knows he is home and has a family of his own now.

I really hope this boy has some good longevity ahead of him.  He's finally in a 
good safe loving place and I hope he gets to enjoy it for a lonjg time.

Thanks you everyone for helping to get him there.  And thank you Michael and 
Char for taking him in and loving him.

Good afternoon, my name is Michael and my wife and I run Second Chance  
Meows The home where Boscoe is going. I would like to thank all of those that  
are donating to help Boscoe.  We have been running a home for FeLV+ cats  
for about 8 yrs now and have had some great success with longevity in them. 
Our  eldest is now 16 yo.

My wife and I are grateful to be able to offer Boscoe a home with lots of  
kids to play with and be loved by.

Please, PLEASE   help Boscoe come home

Fundable takes a 10% cut  for using their service, so that's why the 
ultimate goal is $550.

The  reason they want to do a blood panel is because the cat is at least  
middle-aged, if not elderly;  he is emaciated; and has been eating like  
crazy.  All things together really call for a baseline senior blood  panel.  
Could be kidney or blood sugar problems.  Or it could just  be a case of a 
severerly debilitated cat making up for lost time now that his  mouth doesn't 
hurt and there's plenty of food.  But he is an old geezer  and should have a 
senior blood panel to see where things are at this  point.

I think Boscoe may have a couple of very good years ahead of  him, despite 
the FeLV.  He is a tough old guy to have survived life on  the streets with 
an infected mouth, broken rib, matted and dirty.  And  now that he's gotten 
the mouth taken care of, he's been eating 4 cans of food  a day.  He's 
getting so strong, it's like trying to shove a rhino back in  its cage when he 
tries to get out.  I think he has some very good quality  of life ahead of him,

And how could I not help him.  A cat shows  up at your door in that 
condition, you do what you can.

> what should have  been a longhaired gray and white coat. His

> 3. He was neutered, got his FVRCP and rabies  vaccines,
