Hi Tad and Jeni -- Whatever timeframe works for Jeni. Apparently, Midnight, as they've named her, was initially in the elderly woman's home with her own cat prior to her being tested and spayed and they were absolutely fine together. My feeling is, she'll be OK with minimal adjustment. Midnight will be so happy! Just let me know your plan. PAT
Tad Burnett <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: Hi Jeni and Pat If you think this cat won't take more than average acclimation time I can take her at any time when ever its good time at your end... I have a smaller cage that is set up and empty right now and so long as she doesn't have to stay in it for a long time she should be fine... If she is healthy and not too aggressive...... The siamese that I am working with probably was a breeder and had lived in a cage all his life until he was dumped... He is very happy in his cage but when I let him out he hides and won't come out to eat, etc. so I am guessing he will have the big cage for a long while... My cats here all seem to except new comers with no problem and if your cat has been with other cats before there should be no problem with doing this any time.... And Jeni... where we met before with Luvy and Thurston would be great if we could do that again.... Let me know what you think Tad Patricia Lamoretti wrote: Hi Jeni and Tad -- I'm waiting for some confirmation tests. I could put her at my vet's for a day or so which would be in Rockville Centre. I'm still waiting for more info from the woman and my rescue friend. You guys are great! PAT JENI RECA <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: Hi Tad and Patricia, I think I could help out and foster her for a week or two, until you get your new guy acclimated into your home Tad and then meet you in albany or close to it. I just can't keep her, my husband has offically limited me to three cats to keep. As long as she has a definate place to go I could take her in and she could hang out in a play cage (or bathroom depending on how she is, as long as she isnt a fighter she could hang out in the play cage) at first and see how she is with my cats (but what if she doesnt like cats?...what then?) Let me know if that would be helpful, I drive past queens and work in long island and could pick up the kitty, just as long as she has a forever home and unfortunately it can not be mine. Let me know if that helps.

I'm also waiting for some confirmation results. I guess we could board her for a few days/week if needed. Not sure of her social status (sounds funny). I'll have to find out.

Hi Jeni.. if you are there... I live near Rutland Vermont.. About 60 miles north of Albany... Also this cat would have to easily adjust to my other pos. cats..

How does this kitty act with other kitties ??? My new siamese loves his big isolation cage and it will be a while before he is ready to give it up... Tad Patricia Lamoretti wrote: I just received a call from a friend who has been trying to help an elderly woman place a FeLV/FIV positive cat. The elderly woman has a cat of her own. She's convinced her husband that she can find a home but time is running out. She has to leave town on Monday to provide healthcare for her sister in NC and her husband won't/doesn't understand there is no risk in him providing food and shelter for this little girl so basically, she has no where to go. She doesn't want to put her to sleep but she doesn't know what else to do. Does anyone have any room or resources? PAT --------------------------------- It's here! Your new message!
