I have thought long and hard about it, but have opened up adoptions here at home for some of my clowder. So far, I have been able to find wonderful homes for four of the cats. But some, that I have bottle fed, struggled with illnesses or earned their trust, it is hard to let go.
I know that I am doing the right thing. I have ads everywhere trying to find the right kitty parents and many people have been rejected by me. I'm pretty tough on my requirements. But the bottom line is, that due to a shelter in another county shutting its doors to stray cats and an unrelenting kitten season, I have to get my numbers down.
I will miss each and every cat that has been nutured here. I can only pray that in talking with perspective kitty parents, interviewing their vets and visiting their homes will be enough safeguard to protect these wonderful cats I have shared my life with.
