I really loved reading your thread! You are wonderful and brave to confront your family in a non-confrontational way! Good for YOU! Good for Puddles! I wish there were more good souls out there to rescue these babies!
I fostered one cutie and he found a forever home with two awesome people. My daughter will never forgive me all the way .....she said he was her soul-mate

I feel bad but she is a freshman in college and she would've been leaving him.
Good luck in your rehabilitating him and definitely keep us posted when you get the chance!!!
