His mommy and daddy also adopted one of his littermates when I couldn’t find another home for her, and they all moved to Montana. No, they’re not raising dental floss. :)
Cool and excellent.
We won’t adopt any more kittens. We’re too old to promise them “forever.”
But we are most willing to adopt older adult cats who may be hard to place.
We have two cats who were very difficult when we first adopted them, Miss Hissy Slashy
and Shadow, but the little darlings really do respond well to kindness and love.
And good veterinary care.
We have lost some rescued cats as well, for a lot of them have FeLV, Lymphoma,
and other fatal stray-cat diseases.
One little girl really broke my heart. She was a tiny, gray kittenish thing,
but one look at her eyes told me she was at least 12. She had esophageal
cancer, and we had to have her euthanized. We spent $800 trying to save her,
but we never regretted it. That was in California.
One of our neighbors had put her out because she was all matted up and didn’t
smell very good until we had her cleaned up. I don’t know which neighbor it
was, but I thought daggers into the ether at them until we moved to Ohio.
