Still available. I can drop the price to $900 if you agree to transport Thomas yourself. He weighs 140 lbs now, but still hates direct eye contact. We keep him in a large Amazon box that we got when we bought a cat tree as we no longer have any other cats (or fish). He's easy to take care of as long as you don't make any sudden movements and don't smell like meat, though he does use our doors as scratching posts (we rent, so it's ok). I can provide more details to any people with serious interest of adopting him.

Thanks.
