Even though I'll miss the little guy, I'm pleased to say that Huxley was adopted last night. Being that Beatrice, Emma, and Elise were all recently adopted as well, that means that with the exception of two (Littlefoot and Kit) every cat that my wife and I have fostered has found a home.
There's a new little fuzzball in residence now, though; a 3-month-old long-haired kitten named June. She was found covered in concrete dust at a construction site and was going to be euthanized because she was "feral." She is so timid that I don't know how anyone could have thought that, but fortunately the people with Feline Rescue Mission picked her up. I'm sure she'll get adopted soon, too.
