The poor lil dumped kitty |
she was so happy to have him hold her, look at that sweet face |
second nights meal she would take a mouth full of food and then scoot off dropping half of it like in litters of starved animals it was very sad. |
She is slowly stealing my heart, I am such a cat lover. |
Jill loves her but does not want to share her room. |
I hate when people do that also. I don't know anything about cats. We always had dogs. Your a kind person to take the cat in. You have a big heart.
ReplyDeleteI hate that also. Why can't folks just take their animals to the animal shelter and not dump them out to starve. So many people do that. I don't know much about cats. Wish I could help with your question.
ReplyDeletePeople are animals. What makes anyone think this is ok?
ReplyDeleteOh, I just hate this too. Poor little thing. My kids would gladly take the cutie pie in - she definitely wouldn't suffer from lack of attention here. Too bad I'm not closer. Since I don't have any cats, I don't really have any advice; except just keep loving her like you are until you can figure it out. at least she will have that in her life.
The kitty is so sweet! I have no idea how you could get the cats to bond as I have never had a kitty. Jill looks so cute holding it.
ReplyDeleteI hope you are feeling better.
HUGS!! & Love!!
I feel your anger. And the kitty was apparently a house cat or she would not have let you love on her so much. As far as the expense of having her fixed check with your local animal shelter. When we got our precious K.C. she came from the pound but they had found her in a box in an alley beat up. She was so skittish that it took years before she would show her face when visitors came and she never totally made up with men at all. You are a very sweet person to take her in and I hope she gets to stay.
ReplyDeleteActually the two cats will be fine, just give them some time to get used to each other. Cats are a funny breed and will act all put out but eventually they will become friends. We've done this many times, one of us is always bringing home a cute kitten and the older cat will act like it's the enemy but eventually they come around. She's a beautiful kitty!
ReplyDeleteI've never had a cat so I can't help with your cat question, but she is such a darling! I agree about people dumping their animals; happened a lot here with foreclosures and people moving, couldn't take their pets to their new home, etc. What is scary is when more aggressive breeds or known to be aggressive breeds, like pit bulls, are dumped. I totally agree about being a responsible pet owner on all accounts.

ooooohhhhhh... those things make me soooo mad!
ReplyDeleteI think if you take her to the shelter and explain...they will spay her for you.
good luck and she is really a cutie!
Both of my sisters live in the country and animals are forever being dumped and finding their way to my sister's homes.. It's so sad.. My little sister recently had 4 kittens huddled next to her house but they wouldn't come in. She fed them and made a warm, safe bed for them and they were gone in the morning and never came back. As for the cats.. They will warm up to each other or not, and if not, they'll stay out of each other's way. - Sure is a cutie and I don't think I could give it up either. :)
ReplyDeleteThe first thing I always recommend is to get her checked with your vet. She should have a clean bill of health before she comes into contact with other cats, and your home. Your vet will give you guidance to introduce her gradually. Check with your local vets and shelters to see if someone is looking for her, too. Keep us posted. (PS, let me know what you think of Weeds!)
ReplyDeleteI am horribly allergic to cats, but the boys have been begging for a dog for ages (I'm still mildly allergic to those, too). The thing is, pets are a lot of work. You call in a lot of favors to handle them when you go on vacation, are gone for the day, etc. There is also the expense. So being as I'm not a particularly brilliant person, why don't people consider this when they get a pet? Do they just assume it's going to be cute and love them and there's no work involved?? It makes me mad that (1) People don't think and (2) They treat living things like garbage. You my friend have a heart of gold. If I ever visit, I'll double up on the Benadryl.
