We haven’t focused on our old Gus for a while, so we thought we’d give you an update.

If you remember, we have been caretaking Gus as a Feral for a couple of decades, but this year when that polar vortex hit us, he opted for the first time ever to come inside.

He’s been a great kitten sitter and a good old friend to have around.

However, once Spring came he demanded to be an inside/outside cat and we complied. He spends nights outside and most of the hottest parts of the day inside. Sometimes he’ll eat with the rest of us, but other times he prefers his meal al fresco.

Since he has been going outside he has brought in fleas, chewing lice and some nasty fighting wounds that we’ve patched up. But we love this old dude and because of all the cats he’s saved from starvation and neglect over the years, we pretty much let him do whatever he wants.
