So, this happened.
His shelter-name was Jasper, which we obviously need to change ASAP for the sake of his dignity and ours, before it starts to stick. He is also, as the pronoun suggests, a dude-cat, which in near-forty years of welcoming feline overlords is a brand-new thing for our household; fingers crossed that they're telling the truth about early neutering taking care of the spraying thing, we've already got one cat with enough issues around here.
So far Snip is... unresolved about having a new flatmate; fortunately this time we have the luxury of having another room to shut the new introduction into, so we can take it as slowly as we can this time (unlike the Incident in which Snip ended up taking over a studio apartment from established-tenant Weasel, which may have had more than a bit to do with the subsequent 12-year standoff). We have two weeks' no-fault fostering-period to get her to come around...

We have three male felines in our midst, and they get along close to famously; they all sleep together, only occasionally bat at each other, that sort of thing. Watching the dynamics is fascinating. Shortly we'll be fostering my son's two - a brother and sister duo, bringing our household total to four males and one very tiny female who will boss all the very large males. We know this, because we've fostered them before and that's what the little diva does. Heh.
Good luck with young Mr. Whatever You Decide to Name Him!
