Casper

We've been adopted by a stray cat. When it first came to us it had bloody patches behind its ears and although we didn't want to pay to take it in, we did call the vet. He thought it was ear mites so we put some medicine on him for that. The cat is extremely friendly and at first we told the kids not to touch him because of his ears; however, it is impossible not to touch him as he is constantly rubbing all over them. Josiah and the PCAs have named him "Casper the friendly cat."

At first when we told Asher not to touch him, he would try and walk around him which was impossible. At one point Asher was trying to get off the deck so he'd go one way and try to step down, but Casper would be right there and Asher would say "Excuse me!" and then he'd try another place and the same thing would happen. At one point I looked out the door and thought he was petting him (he was just trying to push him out of the way) and I went out and told him not to touch the kitty. He told me "I'm not going to touch the kitty, cuz I don't know where he's been!" It was so cute!!

Now the no touching rule is off and Asher manhandles this poor cat. You can see an example of this in this video.
