Momma Kitty Gets a New Home!!!
Hi all,
I just wanted to tell y'all my great news!!! My SO and I just finished building our dream home, which meant I got to move out of my apartment and into this huge house. Well, I had an outdoor kitty that I looked after, Momma Kitty. She showed up on my doorstep shortly after I moved into the apartment (circa 1997) with 5 kittens. I got all 5 kitties homes, got her spayed and, since she seemed feral, released her back at the complex. I made sure she had food and water and just looked after her the best I could. I loved to watch her clean up after a meal. She was very particular and took great pains with her toillette! Much to my suprise, she stayed around and seemed to enjoy my company. She never let me touch her and all attempts to trap her (to update her shots) were met with disdain. She would go nowhere near the trap and just looked at me as if to say "You gotta be kidding....I know what THAT thing is!" Anyhow, I was in a real quandry when it came time to move. No way could I take her, even if I could trap her. There are coyotes around here and to move her would be tantamount to just dumping her out in the country. That wasn't going to happen. I just didn't know what to do. I was talking to a friend of mine (who I met through her cat Goblin!) and she said she would be willing to see if she could get M.K. into the trap. Well, 4 weeks later, SUCCESS!!! My dear Momma Kitty is now in her new home. I support a local no-kill shelter and, after I told Karen the story, she unhesitatingly agreed to take her and work with her and take care of her. and it seems Momma Kitty may not be completely feral as I thought. Karen came back from shopping and found M.K. lounging on her bed!! A head scritch has been accepted and flea medicine applied with minimal wounding to applier! I'm just so relieved and happy I could just jump for joy and cry!!!! I knew y'all would understand!!! Kim and Lucy |
