How could a kitty that beautiful get separated from its humans?
Accidents happen. Or, his humans didn't appreciate him. Take your pick.
And how did your family manage to hold out this long?
The fact that we already have two cats who hate each other was a big factor.
What does his fur feel like?
Disgustingly dirty. He is NOT pleasant to touch right now. I'm sure it'll be wonderful once he's all cleaned up, though.
Does he like people?
He must have had some bad experiences with people, because he was VERY skittish when he first started coming around. He would come up to our door, cry, and then run when he saw us. He's really friendly now, though, and loves to be petted. (Which is actually a problem right now because he's so dirty none of us really want to touch him. Plus we're trying to be careful about spreading germs to the other cats. Stray cats are complicated.)
