All 4 of them are very social cats who love company. All of them are
indoor cats.


It is great to see your name on the group again. And all four of your
cats
are lovely. But then they know that and so do you.

I can imagine that they keep you busy. It takes courage to love an older
cat or a sick cat and to make it a home. But it can be so rewarding.

Thank you so much for your warm welcome. I can't believe, someone
still remembers me. I've never been a frequent poster to this group. I
really love older cats, especially when you look into their eyes. But
since the Coonies are only 4, and then Finlay, being very young,
desperately needed a home and nobody wanted him, the fourth cat also
had to be a younger one even though I would have preferred to get an
old one sigh. At the moment, DH and I are discussing to take another
cat in. She's 14 month old, and was injured. Someone cut her belly
when she was just a tiny cat :-(( She's in good care right now in a
foster home. They can't find her a forever home cause she doesn't want
to be touched, but she loves other cats and bond with them
immediately. But, as I said, DH and I are not sure. 5 cats are a lot
responsability. We had two good catsitters but they're not available
any longer. Once in a while, we'd like to go on a vacation. We're not
going until we find a new catsitter who doesn't cost a fortune.

Oh Petra that sounds like a great cat to take in. I also bet eventually she
will want to be touched. Poor baby. Your cats would be good meowmies and
paws to her.
