This answered my question, Gloria. I am so glad that you have Sam, and have an intension to keep him unless it's a REALLY good home - I hope he will get to say with you for the rest of his life - or I would come pick him up to adopt him otherwise - I think you guys are meant to be together - and you and your friend Susan did such a good job!
Every time when I am fortunate to enough to be reunited with animals that have been missing whether they are originally mine or not, I have a very difficult time to let them go to someone else - as I feel like god has given me the 2nd chance to take care of and I feel like I need to make sure they are well taken care of for the rest of their lives..
