Smiley the FIV + Cat

We started fostering Smiley our friendly orange cat about a year ago. I was newly married and my husband was new to fostering. Smiley was drawn to my husband right away. Every time Jim sits on the sofa Smiley finds his spot right next to him. They are two peas in a pod. Jim gives Smiley back rubs every day. Some times when I am home I will notice Smiley pouting and then I realize his buddy Jim is missing and Smiley is very aware of it. Jim and I decided to adopt Smiley because he became a part of our family. We did have a lady want to adopt him one day. She went through the process took Smiley home with her but then decided he wasn't for her. The whole day he was gone was husband was a little sad so when that lady decided not to adopt him Jim told me he wanted to keep Smiley. I was very happy the way things turned out. Some animals just kind there ways into our hearts.
