"Karen Chuplis" wrote in message ... I went to get catfood at the vets today and what should be there, only a week after Nermal's passing, but a dainty little silver tipped persian for adoption. Tiny. Tiny, tiny. Like a half grown kitten and HUGE green eyes. But she is 4 years old. Her owners did not want to deal with her tail sucking. What a rotten thing to do -- to give up a cat for something as minor as "tail sucking!" Fortunately, this cat sounds so pretty (and so unusual) that I am sure she will be adopted...and it sounds like she will be much better off to be out of that environment.

I thought I read that they gave her up because of "tail sucking." TAIL SUCKING?!!! sigh If she was with someone who understood her a little better, maybe she will stop the tail sucking. Purrs for her to find a real home.

She was probably a 'trophy pet' - they wanted her for her looks, but didn't
really want an actual pet that you have to interact with, and I sure hope they went to Toys 'R' Us & bought a stuffed toy Persian for display, instead of seeking out a 'suitable' replacement for this precious kitty. The tail sucking issue will probably go away when she finds a good home, where she will have lots of people, toys and/or other kitties to play with. -- The ONE and ONLY lefthanded-pathetic-paranoid-psychotic-sarcastic-wiseass-ditzy former-blonde in Bloomington! (And proud of it, too)© email me at nalee1964 (at) insightbb (dot) com http://community.webshots.com/user/mgcmdjeep "Karen Chuplis" wrote in message ...

The vet put her on some anti depressants and the tail sucking stopped, so, they are looking for a home for her. Nina. I tell you if I did not have three cats already I would have packed her up on the spot. What's a littel pilling?? She was sweet and let me pet her. Then when one of the vets came out, she jumped down and sauntered off, streeeetching out each little delicate back leg. I'm sure she will get adopted shortly. She is the cutest damn thing I ever saw. She will HAVE to be an indoor cat because she would get snatched for sure if she were outside. So if anyone in the vicinity of Eastern Nebraska would like a doll baby of a kitty, I will gladly give you directions. I figure the tail sucking probably came from a strained environment. Anyone willing to give up over such a MINOR problem was probably totally anal and did not give her enough attention anyway. |

If she was sucking the owner's tail (if he/she had one, that is) I could see the objection. People are nuts! |

That's how I got my dear little Roxy, a Persian with championship bloodlines. They ended up keeping the poor little thing in the garage so she wouldn't mess up their "too too perfect" home. When we first got her, she was the "Kitty who didn't know how to play." Now I can expect little kitty pats several times a day demanding I break out the peacock feather or the kitty string for her to play with. I hope the same thing happens for this little one.
