Almost two weeks ago friends on the next block found this starving emaciated cat under their shed and a day later I brought him to my garden house where he stayed overnights and was in the yard in the days. Friday a week ago he was so scared of the lawnmowers, he hid under there all day so that night I took him to the back bedroom where he stayed a week. On Wednesday I took him to my vet and he (originally we thought was a she because of his delicate effeminate face) but is in fact a young unneutered male who doesn't have baby teeth so maybe a year or more. I have never seen a more personable cat coming from the outside and acclimating himself immediately. My friends ran posts on FB , Next Door( which is where I saw it )Find Toby and no responses and he wasn't chipped. He was negative for distemper and feline leukemia and joined the downstairs cats. He marched around like he owned the place and ignored hisses by Poppy the seven-year-old ginger who is a prima donna. He has the longest whiskers and ear tuffs I have ever seen and a giant raccoon tail like my Maine Coon but his fur is short. His name is William, Willy for short.

UPDATE: Birthday Extravaganza Birthday Buddies for April
Comments (146)Hey April Birthdays -- HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO YOU ALL! I hope you are enjoying your month. And best of all, the month isn't over and at least one of us still needs to get some out yet! That would be me :) Alwaysagarden, could you drop me an email with addresses? Or someone. I remember getting an email that said to save it and um, well, I failed. I have kinda been a bit lost. I've been working full time for 3 months now and job will probably last another 2 months at least. I'm not used to full time. It puts a big cramp in my old routine! I love part time where there was actually time for email, internet, hobbies! And now garden time is approaching FAST! I recently found a fantastic variety of commercial seeds which surprized me -- at a local feed store! I can't wait to get back there! And I really feel a deep NEED to spend some time at the nurseries in town!!! And this job is depriving me of my addiction! Actually I'm just kidding. So glad to have the job to have the money to spend. Anyway, I haven't posted much but you April birthdays are on my mind and will do what i can soon....See MoreUPDATE: April showers bring May flowers

Comments (70)Gorgeous flowers Sandlapper/Jeanne! I especially like the purple one. I want to say thanks to my pal, Pastvast/Stephanie! I received a package over the weekend with some really cool surprises! First, Trilliums. Love them! I've really been needing to expand my shade garden beyond the basics and these give me a good start. And second, Skittles. Love them also! I've almost eaten all of them already, I just can't keep my hand out of that bag. Perfect timing too, I just ran out of 3 Musketeers minis so now I've got something new to snack on. And last but not least, Stephanie sent one of her wonderful letters. I really enjoy them and the updates on your life. And you have to keep me updated on that bundle of joy you're expecting! I have no kids myself, really don't want any, but I like to hear about and spoil everyone else's! Thanks again, Stephanie. Both Sandlapper/Jeanne and Pastvast/Stephanie, I want to apologize for being such an e-mail flake lately. I've been so swamped with home projects that I'm not getting much else done. And the last 2 weeks have been especially bad with replacing the deck. But the deck is almost finished (Yeah!) so you'll both be hearing from me soon. :-)...See MoreUPDATE: Birthday Bash Group April Month
