Meghan.. give me a call.. still a problem cat in St. Paul (was: cat introduction)
Hi Meghan. You phoned me earlier this Fall to offer help with Henry,
our adopted cat. I sent a post to this group under a pseudonym so I'm not sure you knew who I was. Short story: Henry was adopted in August as a sick, bedraggled stray. Sequestered for several weeks, we began the slow introduction, and he very quickly focused on our other long-haired, Maine Coon clone, 10 year old Tiger as a cat to be killed. In the meantime, our otherwise peaceable 2-yr-old Bengal decided that Henry was a mortal enemy and should be killed immediately. (Henry got loose a few weeks ago from our upstairs bedroom. As he trotted downstairs the Bengal, Louis, noticed him from upstairs. Louis ran down about two steps and suddenly turned into an Exocet Missile aimed directly at Henry. He never touched another step, and dove right at him - 8 lb Bengal vs 16 lb mutt - Points to Louis for his bravery, but that's not a household we want to live in..). You called and offered help - and I've lost your number. We live in St. Paul and my email address in this post is valid. Henry is the sweetest cat I've ever known. Big fuzzy friendly animal, he'll hop on your chest and snuggle to your neck in a second. We've just botched the introduction. Henry's a little under 2 yrs old, a bit younger than Louis. Tiger (Louis' best friend in the world) will most likely die before Louis. We would so like to have a nice cat ecology where Louis and Henry were friends. Hope you see this post and can call me -- 651-226-5465. Thanks. BLink PS: Sometimes it's really hard to love cats. =( |
