It didn't take much convincing to get Connor to agree to ride back to Greenville that evening when he finished up at work. I told him I would come pick him up and we could ride together. We pulled Elliot (previously known as "Lightning") out again and spent a bit of time with him before we noticed he was sneezing occasionally. One of the volunteers recognized me from earlier that day and came into the room. Did we come back to see the same cat? Would we like to adopt him? Yes. Yes we would. Only, they wouldn't let us because he was sneezing, so the vet on staff prescribed some anitbiotics for him and we brought him home as a 10 day foster. This was actually an ideal situation because we were able to introduce him to Jasper before we made the commitment to keep him.
We have really enjoyed adding another cat to the family, and they seem to both be thriving. Although, Connor said he will be picking up the flea prevention from now on!
