Followup: Ex-feral kitty
I really appreciate all the good advice I got regarding the kitty I am
considering adopting. I was encouraged enough that I went to visit the cat. She was actually less skittish than I'd been led to believe, though it was clear that whoever adopts her will need to let her set the pace. Behaviorally, I think she'd do fine at our house. The trouble is, though, she's had ringworm and while the shelter says she's cured of it, they also say that they can't guaranty that and would have me sign a waiver. Unless I'm sure it would be safe, I can't justify bringing the cat home and putting my family and my other two kitties (one who already has a skin problem) at risk. We have a vet appointment on Saturday for the cat with the skin problem -- I'll ask the vet what he thinks about adopting the cat. Thanks again for all your help! beeswing |
