Guisseppe belonged to a multi-cat household and he didn't like it, although strangely enough he liked living at our hospital.  We tried to adopt him out a couple of times but the second time he was returned at 28 lbs so Dr. Kessler decided to keep him. He became our office cat.  It took a few years but we eventually got him down to 17 lbs.  He would sit on the reception counter and put his paws up on the clients shoulders as they were trying to check out.  He would crawl inside cat carriers that were left open and make it hard for our patients to go home.  He would sneak into a left open hospital cage as we were discharging a patient, and would gobble up whatever tempting food we had been using to encourage patients to eat.  He loved to lick the back of mailing labels.  He liked to curl up inside clients winter coats when they weren't looking.  He lived to be 17 and gave us many years of laughter.
