His name is Sam, and he's a 15 yr old white dsh. He's SUCH a love bug too!
My sister and brother-in-law took in Sam 15 yrs and Lilly 8mo about two months ago on a short term basis while one of my bil's coworkers was moving and staying temporarily with her sister who wouldn't allow her to take her cats. The owner wound up moving in with another person recently who also does not allow cats. It made me furious to hear that someone who has had a cat for 15 yrs since a kitten, would just leave him like that and not give any reguard to where they move,etc. (she had other options aside from moving in with that lady). Instead, she moves into a place where she knowingly can't take her animals (which are a life-long responsibility) and dumps them off on my sis. She said "well they have two options -eithor they find another home or go to the shelter, i'm sure sam will be pts since he's old."
Soo stupid!
Thankfully though- my sister Kimmy is an angel and her and her family have decided to keep Sam and let him live out the rest of his life with them. Lilly will be rehomed to one of my bil's coworkers who absolutely adores her! (she just got spayed last week so she should be ready to go soon). I am happy that my sister and the other person are adopting these two wonderful kitties and giving them a forever home where they will be cared for their entire lives.
My sister just adores Sam too -he's a doll! He sleeps with them, he gives kisses, he's got a funny meow (it's like he's saying "ma mu"
) Aww he's just great! He's already neutered, vaccinated, and in perfect shape too! He looks great for his age! I'm really glad this story doesn't have a bad ending and both kitties found good homes! I just hope that the former owner NEVER adopts another animal if she can not provide care for it and make a life long committment (she's a real heifer). I just can't imagine dumping off my beloved animals on someone else after i've had them for years ya know! I could never move somewhere where i would not be allowed to take my babies
Thankfully though, Sam will be just fine and spoiled rotten now with my sister!
For those of you who are considering adopting at the moment- definitely consider adopting an older pet- they are SOOOO loving and can be very wonderful- many of them have lots of good years left in them too and have great manners!
