Some of you may remember last fall I talked about adopting a second cat, partly to keep Sam company, partly because I love seeing two kitties together, and mostly to rescue another cat in need.
Today I found her. She has been named Bailey, which sounds very nice, so I may keep that. She is 4 years old, and is a small long haired ginger tabby. She was a stray, rescued when pregnant, and lived at the home of the director of the SPCA until her kittens were weaned. They have all been adopted so now mom cat is up for adoption.
She seems very sweet - just snuggled in my arms when I held her, and they said she has been well socialized with other cats and dogs at her foster home.
I will pick her up later in the week, and take her to the vet for spaying and a health check. I am thinking about boarding her at the vet for a short time until the surgery starts to heal, so we don't have that to contend with as well.
And thanks to the advice of this board, I know what to do to try and introduce the two kits with a minimum of stress.
I am so happy, it makes me want to cry.
