I have my baby boy home!!

[Siwsan]

He meowed the entire drive home. Probably a good thing I don't speak meow. Once we were home he showed little attitude, just to make me feel guilty, and they pulled the sad face but now he's purring and exploring and asking for scritches. I am most content.

1. Those are some ears

For a little boy! Glad he is home and doing well.

[calimary]

25. He'll grow into 'em.

But they are rather stately, I must say!

[MN2theMax]

2. Yay! Arthur is home!

Glad he is well.

[avebury]

3. He has the how could you do this to me, pitiful

look down pat. Glad everything went well.

[niyad]

4. awwwwww, so glad that he is home and doing well. He will forgive you.

Your job today is just to cuddle and care for the boys. Lady Bast so decrees!

[Siwsan]

6. He is doing a lot more vocalizing

And that's aside from the drive home. I might just have a meower, here. Both Madoc and Gryff are relatively quiet, except when Madoc wants food or Gryff wants affection.

Both Sophie and Boudicca were very vocal cats. I kind of miss that so maybe Arthur will fill the void.

Scooter, the feral cat, has started meowing when I bring out the food. She has taken on a lot of sweet Mittens the Kitten's behaviors - running up to me, meowing, darting back and forth REALLY close by and now letting me get in a few scritches while she eats.

[niyad]

11. awwwwww. That is such great news on Scooter. And I think you are correct

about Arthur's vocalizing.

All of my cats have been pretty silent, including my Siamese babies. Heck, even my dog, an Alaskan Mal, only howled rarely.

[wnylib]

18. A quiet Siamese? Wow. I had a

half Siamese who chatted constantly. It was really kind of funny that, as soon as I walked in the door after work, he would start talking, as if filling me in on his day. I would say things like, "Is that right? And then what happened?" He would respond. This went on while I fixed dinner and he watched. My husband used to crack up laughing at how long these conversations would go on.

5. 😻😻😻

7. Hooray! I've been watching this space all morning. 😸

I left my cat alone for a few days one time and when I got home he cussed at me for a solid hour. Not sure what he was saying but I’m sure it was feline profanity

[AllaN01Bear]

8. yay.

[2naSalit]

9. Whew! Glad that's over!

I can guess that all that vocalizing is a whole bunch of WTF!

He'll forget by next week and won't recall it until the next time he has to go for a ride in the car.

Mikey, after being traumatized, was actually very quiet our hour long drive back to my place. When I took him to the vet he was reluctant to get in the carrier but once we got back to my place, he was happy. He ate and crashed out for most of the rest of the day. After shots, that's the normal routine.

So far, he's been accepting of the outdoor protocol, he knows he can't go far but is getting bolder now that he's feeling better. He still comes when he's called, I think he knows that we'll go out again so he seems to be okay with it. He also has a perch at each of three windows where he spends a lot of his time watching the wildness beyond our housing lot.

I'm glad Arthur is home and getting back to his normal.

[Peregrine Took]

10. What a sweet face. He's emotional as he's back home. n/t

[ShazzieB]

12. Yay! Welcome home, Arthur!

I love the first pic! In the second one he's his usual sweet self, looking as angelic as ever, but in the first one, he's showing a different side of himself, and it's fun to see that. Attitude, indeed!

[Chicagogrl1]

13. He Is Just the CUTEST!!!

Glad he came through his procedure ok. Now you can relax & spoil him rotten!!😻

[SheltieLover]

14. Yaaaaaay!

Have the boys inspected him for strange smells to see where he has been?

So happy you are all together again!

[Siwsan]

16. Oh yea - sniffs galore. And they are being very gentle with him.

He's just exploring everything. I expect I will soon find him snoozing in the most agreeable sun beam.

[SheltieLover]

17. Awwwww such wonderful boys!

I'll bet after a long nap, Madoc will be grooming Arthur.

[ailsagirl]

15. Adorable!!

A year and a half ago, I adopted two sisters with the same markings as your little one! 😻😻😻

[MontanaMama]

19. Hooray! You've got your baby home.

I’ll be he crashes for a nice long nap once he lets you know what’s what. I’d join him if I were you.

[PatrickforB]

23. Just a note to say I love the first box quote on your signature line.

That's wonderful.

[MontanaMama]

27. Thank you.

[Rebl2]

20. Glad he

is back home and enjoying lap time.

[KS Toronado]

21. You could buy "How To Meow For Dummies"

Then you could speak his language.

[PatrickforB]

22. I remember when we took our Siamese and our Tortie to the vet to get fixed, they

were so freaked out. And when we picked them up they were SO glad to see us. They were rescues from a barn where their third sibling froze to death, and they really, really love us. And we them.

[NJCher]

24. yep, you got cussed out

in that first photo.

He just had to say that, LOL.

[Ocelot II]

26. He certainly gave you a piece of his mind!

I love to hear meows. My one remaining cat seldom meows, but she trills and hums quite a bit. The porch cat, Mr. Cat, now meows when he sees me, which I take as a sign that he's becoming a little less feral.

Great to see Arthur and his ears back home, chatting you up.
