To quote MC, "hee hee hee". I have a good feeling about Tobbie's
special needs diminishing when he's adjusted to living in a home with
great care and less stress being directed at him. It must have been
hellish living with an old lady with diminishing faculties. I placed
this wonderful older Tuxedo cat, (with my understanding sister, God
bless her), that had been trying his damnedest to take care of an
elderly mom with dementia. You should see the way he's begun to
thrive! He looks 5 years younger and he's so happy! Have a talk with
Coebeio, before you bring Tobbie home. Get her on board with helping to
care for him. I'm sure you'll figure out what's best for everyone
concerned.
Oh, and I know the 'eyes averted' thing doesn't work. I can't bring
myself to really do it anyway!

Yes I know there are breed rescues....and I have used them....my
problem is...once I "foster" them ....they stay forever!!!!! I
adopted my current cat out THREE TIMES and she just kept coming back!
REALLY NOT ready for another animal.....but then...I guess that's when
you can be certain they appear. .....Funny thing is...I was just
starting to 'consider' maybe....adding another cat to keep Coebeio
-my cat- company because she really misses Quint....I did the idiot
thing and prayed..ok..its in Your hands...YOU pick the cat. (the cat I
picked a few weeks ago died at its foster home before I picked it up
in a -freak accident)......hmmm I wonder if God heard me say
*C***A***T*?! ...yeah! like that matters! ;-) Guess I just have to
suck it up and take my own advice.
Thanks for the support. You hang in there too.
OH...and P.S. :
Walking with your head down and eyes averted......yeah...that doesn't
work either...that's how I came across Coebeio!
:-)
