Finally! We caught the last cat from Lake Wylie. It is not a happy camper. My shower curtain is no longer hanging. I haven't been able to get too close to "Wylie" yet. I did see it's foot while in the cage. Looks like it is fully healed from whatever took it off. I hope to get a better look at it within a week. And this cat is big. Really big! And very heavy.
I also need to make sure what the sex is. I'm pretty sure it's a boy. I've been able to pet him, only on the head, and he has some fat jaws. I'm hoping being around Brim and Tuna will calm him down. They don't seem to have a problem with him being in there. I got some pictures of all of them together.
When I went in early this afternoon, they were all cuddled together and it was so sweet looking. I went for the camera but when I got back, Tuna had moved to the food bowl and Brim was eating the mackeral.
Wylie has such a mean scowl on his face. He's scary just to look at.
Let's get back to the names. Tuna does not come to Tuna. Wylie probably won't come to Wylie. So I have decided to name them all Brim since that is the name they are used to and they all come to it. So Brim is Brim. Tuna is Brim 2 and Wylie will be Brim 3. But on the paperwork, Tuna and Wylie will be in parentheses.
As long as Wylie doesn't get sick or show signs of illness, he will go with Brim & Tuna on March 4th to the spay/neuter clinic.
I was able to get some good pics before finishing this post. I was also able to pet him on the head and chin for quite some time.
I would like you to share this post/story. I would like for this little family to stay together. It's obvious as you can see in the pictures, they love each other.

I want to thank Anne for all her help with Wylie. She fed him every day until we could catch him. Not even bad weather stopped her from checking on him and feeding him. Thank you!
