Hello there, I'm new to this site and have a 7-year old Bombay and just adopted a young kitten
Technically, we are only fostering the 7yo for a friend of a friend who left the country in November of 2017. My wife and I live in a large house with a nice patio where the cat has tons of room to roam and play, and she's grown quite attached to us.
The original owner adopted her in November 2014 and said she wants to come back and reclaim her in September of 2021. We asked her about the possibility of just adopting her permanently, but she said she definitely wants her back.
My wife and I have no intentions of actually sending her back to the original owner after taking care of her for almost 4 years and approximately half of her lifetime. Is this legit, or wrong of us? I don't think the cat would be happy having to resettle after all this time.
Please give your opinions. Thanks! Bronson
