had a chat with Archer about how he's leaving and Nacho Bear came up in conversation. this cat belongs to my house technically, as he was abandoned some several tenants ago. archer has been caring for Bear and has vetted him a few times and such.
nacho's face is all scabbed and fucked from maybe run ins with stray dogs? and other things.
poor dude is hot and old and kindof underloved.
nacho got that name because he kept comin in the kitty door and we'd have to remind him its nacho house anymore!
and shoo him out and he'd growl.
:(
anyhoo archer talked about how he'd like that house to end up with someone in it who would regard bear with some respect and it kinda made me re think the situation and i still don't want him in my bed but i'll be ok from now on with him eating some of my cat food and escaping the difficult weather in my kitchen.
he usually growls at me on sight but today i told him hello and got down to the floor and he walked up and let me pet him.
so that is that.
we're friends now.
maybe, armed with this new knowledge that he can be charming, maybe i can find him a home. probably not. i can't really afford another cat right now, epecially one who is getting close to the end of his healthy life. also he is fathering kittens all up in this hood and thats not cool.
