Crying away

My vet has the most amazingly affectionate cat at the clinic that the humane society brought in.  He has a large facial wound, and is slated for adoption when he heals.  Though he is a rough looking boy, his personality is gorgeous.  We went to meet him today and took Dock in to weigh her.  Dock's weight has gone up nicely since  we switched her food over.  But a ride in the carrier is always an ordeal for her.  Getting home, she wanders for a few minutes, crying.  So the hubby and I retreat to the computer room to eat our breakfast with the door closed in peace.  She continues to cry and stands near the door, almost like she's sad that we are not there.  This goes along with the lost feeling and wanting to follow us all over.  Once the door was open though, she was fine.

On another note.  We will likely be bringing home a new cat in a few weeks.  The clinic has the most amazingly affectionate male stray that has such a gorgeous personality.  He did have a rather large facial abscess which destroyed a lot of the skin on his face.  That will heal well, but will take time.  The local humane society is willing to adopt him out once he is healed, but I could not resist his charm.  Hubby and I went to see him today, and decided that once he is healed, neutered, declawed, dewormed, defleaed and vaccinated, then he can come home.  I'm sure that it'll still be about 3 weeks, and I'm not sure if Dock will still be around then.  I'm hoping not to stress her out too much by bringing in another rambunctious cat.  Mace will have a ball with this new guy.  I will post a picture and name when I can.
