About two weeks ago two stray cats were appearing after a mobile home was torn down up the road. This was going on for about a week, and my girlfriend and I feared they would get hit by speeding traffic on our backstreet road so we took them in. We are not allowed pets in our rental home by our landlord's request, so this was only supposed to be a temporary situation. We posted the two male brother cats approx. 3 months old on facebook and craigslist. We asked around through various friends, family, ect, no one wanted them. The craigslist ad was removed for some odd reason, which wasn't helpful for us. We ended up cleaning the cats up of fleas and got them flea medicine, shampoo, food, water/food bowl, litterbox, litter, ect. They started to become very comfortable in our home just from being there for two weeks, and became potty trained the same day they got their litterbox. They were very playful and were always wrestling with eachother and purring. Very cuddly cats. We tried talking to the humane society, but they basically said they would be euthanized. I wasn't giving them a darn thing, let alone two perfectly healthy cats! We made the decision last night, and cleaned up everything down in the basement and took them to a nearby farm and let them go. Did we do the right thing? My girlfriend was balling her eyes out and wished we didn't keep them as long. Will they adapt to the environment quickly? I just hope we made the right decision for them.
