I need your guidance on this one please.
My fathers cat needs a new home. She has lived with him as a house cat for about 7 years and has been an only cat. At the moment she is in a cattery awaiting placement in a rescue centre.
She is a little sweetie with only 3 legs. But my dilema is this should i take her in and risk my 3 being upset by this stranger in the house, and the fact that i will not be able to keep her inside (my cats have access to the outdoors when we are home) or do i leave her to her fate and hope that she finds a new home and not be put to sleep?
I cant bear the thought of that happening but how do you think she would react to having a multi-cat house to deal with after so long and do you think a 3-legged cat would be ok if she chose to go out?
I really dont know what to do, i dont want Jake, Jaz and Izzy to be upset but then i dont want Tigger to be homeless. Perhaps i am fretting too much and she will find a very good new home as an only cat ?
Any advice or experiences appreciated.
