Hi guys. Yesterday I got a cat (Felix) from a local rescue centre. Felix's owner could no longer care for him as he was working 12 hour shifts. Also, his wife recently died.
We brought him home, and had a bit of a stressful time introducing him to our resident cat, Gillan. However, since yesterday - they seem much happier and settled (Gillan even let Felix eat from his dish this morning).
A few minutes ago, the rescue centre called. Felix's owner wants him back - his circumstances have changed, as his boss has now offered him work at home. He is also missing the cat. The lady from the rescue was very fair, and said it was our decision - that we were withing our rights to say no.
I really don't know what to do? I really feel for the man - but at the same time, I don't know how good this will be for Gillan? Also, if I get another cat - I don't know whether Gillan will accept him or not.....
Help!
