Hey, so some of you know I've been wanting to adopt a black cat for a while. Went to the humane society this afternoon and someone hitched a ride home with me. Well actually, once I got him home I couldn't get him off me
. His shelter name's Jovi, but I think I'll start calling him Shamisen or Shami for short. Here he is on his favorite spot.
Yep, he's rubbing my ear with his cheeks
and kneading my shoulder. He seems to like to lick them too and paw through my hair.
I'm actually pretty amazed at this cat. He's so calm! I put him in the front seat of my car in a carrier on the way back and he just sat and looked out the window the whole time, and this is even with bumpy railroad crossings and fairly spirited driving. Once I got him home and out of the carrier, he was immediately on my lap purring up a storm. No "where the heck am I" darting looks and nervousness.
Here's another pic when he found his food
Apparently he doesn't like the stuff
. Actually I just took the pic at a strange moment, he seems to love the Nutro Kitten Indoor I got for him, he started munching on it immediately after discovering it.
Now just waiting for him to use the bathroom, I put out a small litterbox for him, but he hasn't shown any interest so far.
