This is Eliot.
(He's one of Zelda's offspring, formally known as "Eliot, Son of Cheeky Bastard") Sometime around early August, i made young Eliot an appointment with the vet, through the nice folks at Spay Today. And he promptly disappeared. They let me reschedule his appointment a couple times, but when i still couldn't find him, i went ahead and applied that credit toward getting Zelda spayed, which definitely needed to be done. The kittens are adorable, of course, but there are only so many suckers in my circle of friends willing to adopt them.
Last night, Eliot turned up on the porch, meowing to be let in, as though nothing had intervened over the four months or so he's been missing. He's friendly, rumbly, affectionate, and apparently healthy. (He's also still terrible about hopping onto the kitchen counter, alas...)
But having used his appointment for Zelda, i now need to come up with more money to get Eliot neutered, and quickly. And that's where the "Get Eliot Fixed" sale comes in: buy two or more items from Fripperie, enter "Eliot" in the message to seller section, and i'll refund 20% of the price of your items, now through November 21, 2010 (refund via PayPal - if you're not paying with PayPal, convo me first, and i'll set up a reserved listing for you, with the adjusted price). Stop by the shop and see if there's anything you can't resist...

What a dear mom you are to your (very) extended cat family : )
This is a lovely idea & I plan to take advantage of you great offer.

Splendid (and i'm just trying to keep the cat family from extending any further for a while)! I thank you, though Eliot might not, if he knew what was afoot...
What a great story! Cats run on God's time...a day is as a thousand years and a thousand years as a day! Glad he's safe!
Thanks - he certainly seems content to be back, even though he's under "house arrest" until he makes a visit to the vet. Right now, he's curled up with a littermate, six inches from the woodstove...
