Yesterday (12/16) I replied to an ad locally. A lady said that she had himalayan kittens to give away. The lady said that she was old, just broke her arm, and was overwhelmed w/ cats & kittens. She couldn't afford to buy food for them or take care of them anymore. I've been wanting a persian, but I thought I was going to get a "good deal", FREE. Anyways, she had her brother meet me at a gas station w/ a kitten, I was told it was tame.
Well, it isn't tame. I currently have it in a pet taxi w/ a litter box, food, water, & a towel. I have let it out in a closed room 3 times. 2 times I've had to corner it & throw a towel over it to pick it up, and the other time I reached in & grabbed it w/ a towel.
I really do want to keep it, it is so beautiful, but it looks like it is several months old. I don't know if I should. I have 2 kids 4 & 10. They both know not to go in the spare room if the kitten is out, but I know that they are going to want to give it attention eventually. Right now they are scared of it though.
Any suggestions, or tips?
