For Polonca

Polonca,

You post so much support for all of us, yet I know nothing about you and
Soncek. I know you live in Slovenia but that's all.
I haven't posted here for very long, would it be possible to know something
about you and your cat? I might have missed it before I joined the group.

Five years ago I was working in an office on the outskirts of Ljubljana, the
capital of Slovenia. A grey female short-haired cat started visiting the
garden of the house where the office was located. Some other people working
for a different company, but in the same house, and I fed her and much later
we found out that she belonged to some people in the nearby block of flats
who probably dumped her when she became pregnant We all took care of her
and the kittens she later had. I decided to adopt one of the kittens, a
female one. I wanted to wait until the kittens are 3 months old, before
taking her away from her mommie. I was very torn about that decision because
kids from a nearby elementary school were really mean to the kittens. When I
worked I could look out the window from time to time and yell at the kids to
leave the kittens alone, but I was afraid what went on in the rest of the
days. Finally kittens were 3 months old and one day I brought a cage to take
the girl kitten I picked home with me. But when I finished working that day
the kitten I chose was nowhere to be found. I was contemplating what to do
when Soncek (I named him later - that means "sunshine" in Slovene) came
along. I picked him up and he promptly fell asleep in my lap. I realized
that was what was meant to be, so I took Soncek home with me. When I got him
home, he suddenly didn't want to cuddle anymore, he would not let me pick
him up and it took years (he was 5 in June) so that he tolerates a bit more
my (what must seem to him) endless show of affection. But temperatures are
slowly dropping and last winter he decided that lying on my stomach while I
read in bed is a good thing. I think so too.
Soncek's mommie was later spayed and her kittens all found their
onetruehomes.
I do hope the story I wrote wasn't too long.
Best wishes,

Definitely NOT too long. Glad you, and the other workers were there to
look after the momma and her kittens.
