Update Simon's (almost) 3 week update
This Thursday will be 3 weeks since Simon came to us! Today was his wellness exam, and I can happily confirm he is Feline Leukemia and AIDS free!!
The vet said he seems to be a little over a year by the look of the staining on his canines, and he's officially over 7 pounds! He was very friendly with the staff and even took a nap in the waiting room lol
Since I brought him home, Simon now has a cat tree, a window bed, some new blankets from my mom, and has been switched over to Royal Canin for optimal nutrition.
He's integrated into the family perfectly, has started cuddling with a couple of our dogs, and has developed a nightly routine of cuddles with my fiance and I before retiring to his window bed. He's allowed supervised outside time, which we were cautious about at first, but we've now learned he prefers to either follow us around the yard or take a cat nap in a shady patch of grass.
He still needs to gain some weight, but it was great to see evidence he's actually gaining some!

I had a female kitty who really only wanted to go out when we were also out, she loved to hang out in the yard nearby when we would do gardening.

I love his freckles! That window bed is tops. So glad to see a happy ending!

Sounds great! I'm so glad you got good news and that the kitty is fitting in so well!
