Ulysses

Ulysses is doing great! Funny story, shortly after we got him we went to South Carolina to see my daughter and we didn't want to leave him home alone, so we boarded him at the vet. When we returned and went to pick him up they asked me to see if I could get him in his carrier because he was growling and hissing at them and had been a perfect horror the whole time we were gone. When I went back to see if I could get him, he hissed at me and I just reached in and bopped him on the head and said "oh, stop it!" I grabbed him by the scruff of his neck and put him in the carrier. He hissed and growled at me all the way home. Once we were home and I let him out he looked around and started purring. It was then that I realized he thought we were giving him back! Poor baby! He's quite happy now that he knows this is his forever home! He's also happy because his morning routine with my husband includes "play time" in the kitchen sink with the water running while Steve is making his lunch. He still LOVES playing in water! He also gets along famously with our dog. He likes to swat at her tail and he licks her ears. She doesn't like it too much when he grabs her feet as she walks by and occasionally gives her "love nips" on the ankles! She just gives us a look that says, "really, do I have to put up with THIS?" :-) I've attached some recent photos for you!
