    What a great pair of cats, and of course they shouldn't be separated. I adopted an older pair of cats like that too. They were too bonded to separate, so they were adopted out together. Squeaky and Dez were so cute together. The slept together constantly and also groomed each other. Dez was a chunky calico, and Squeaky a slim and very anxious long hair black cat. Squeaky just worshiped the ground that Dez walked on, but was nervous around people. It was hilarious to see the way they acted. Nothing phased Dez, she was so sedate, and then their was Squeaky's adorable neuroticism. Sqeaky would squawk for attention, but when you reached for her, she'd cower in fear or run half the time. It used to make Ron laugh so hard. She would come and lay on us on her own terms. i guess we were safer if we were laying down or something. I can't describe the hero worship she had for Dez though. She just looked at Dez w/ utter adoration and Dez was her ultimate happy place.

    I worked with a cat like that for 18 months. He had been surrendered because his elderly owner had to go into assisted living. He was so traumatized by the whole surrender. He was so aggressive he bit a volunteer who needed stitches. No one could even remove food from his cage or change his litter box. I sat outside his cage for months on end, not looking at him and just talking out loud. It was such slow progress, but eventually he came out of the cage, although he ran back in as soon as I looked at him. It got to the point, finally, where he jumped on my lap and allowed me to pet him. Eventually, he was adopted into a really good home.

    I’m so happy to see someone as kind and patient as you with an obviously frightened little creature. Some people are just insistent that the cat has to immediately warm up to them. And if they are frightened and hiss and puff up their fur, they think the cat is aggressive and a mean cat. They don’t think that ALL living creatures need a little time to feel comfortable with their new surroundings. Like people, we all come to every “relationship” with a history. Good and bad. Cats, Dogs, Horses etc! We all need “someone” we can bond with. And you were so wonderful using the stick to gently touch Grey and talk tenderly with him. Letting him find his own way. And discovering his new friend was such a blessing for both of them. It’s just beautiful. Just absolutely beautiful 😻

    Oh, I loved this so much! I've had a couple of fosters like Grey...and it was definitely a slow, steady process to gain trust. Incidentally, _both_ of those challenging fosters *also* ended up flourishing when they met what turned out to be their "kitty soul mates"...and it was among my top most wonderful things to watch. Of course, when it came time to find their (always fervently hoped-for) forever homes, they were adopted out as bonded pairs.
    _ps: May light and joy be with you and yours always. Thank you for what you do. Fostering is hard, but also incredibly fulfilling._ 💖

    Brilliantly well done, on all fronts. Yes, it is true, "some cats will be saved, and some not", because there are lots of feral cats out there and resources are limited, and we have to be practical about what can be done and what, reasonably speaking, cannot. You persevered and were inspired to introduce Philly Pokey (great name, btw), and you also understand that both Grey and Philly Pokey will be adopted as a pair, which makes complete sense. I'm humbled by your experience, your compassion, and your level-headed assessments of what can be reasonably be done in cases like these. Keep up the great work!

  • @angelwings7930

    It took me 2 months once to get through to an abandoned cat who felt so unsure and betrayed by people. I did it by feeding them and then leaving them alone, no pressure, but I spent as much time as possible out in the yard so they could observe me and it helped a lot. The kitty “came with” a house I rented. She stayed in yard, front and back but mainly in the back, fenced yard. After she accepted me I got her into a good cat rescue. ❤

    I have an affinity to cats, and they seem to be attracted to me because of it. Cats are a big part of my life, as I never married, and do not have children. So My cats are my babies. I love them a lot, and they love me a lot too. McCartney is a grey tabby that came to me as a stray. He met me twice before he followed me home. When he found where I lived at the time, he begged to be taken in. As he was such a little gentleman, treating my 14 year old Cookie Baby like a lady.
    Cookie Baby is a Brennel Calico and is fiercely loyal to me. She is my best friend even. And when McCartney treated her like a lady, I was totally amazed. He still does so to this day. For a 14 year old cat, she is still pretty spry, liking it when I play with her.
    I have one more cat that is not yet a year old, a tuxedo that is mostly white, with small patches of black on her head and her legs only. Her name is Patience, because the patch on her head looks like the cowl worn by Halle Berry in Catwoman. She was a bit rough when playing, but now she has calmed down a good bit. She has become addicted to being cuddled. I have no problem with that.

  • @leovolont
    @leovolont 7 місяців тому +1

    Yeah, that was a tough rescue. I think the winning ingredient was that the Angry One, the Tabby, was a boy. Tom Cats look for buddies. If it were a female, well, the girls can be intrinsically a lot more territorial. I once had a Rescue blow up in my face. I was trying to bring in a female feral from the parking lot, a year after I had some success bringing in Calico Peggy who had been the previous Parking Lot Cat, probably the mother of Angie who I tried to rescue. I gave Angie her own room, but she would find or make some cat cave, being territorial against me. After a month Angie began coming out more and so I took down the barrier and she had run of the whole apartment. Calico Peggy wanted nothing to do with it, and so one time I opened the door and Peggy took off. I had loved Calico Peggy, and so I threw Angie out with the hopes that Peggy would come back. So I lost them both. Yeah, Feline Rescue is difficult and sometimes you lose. It'll make me cry to tell you, but, well, the cats can lose hard too. Peggy died. She had moved down to a territory including an Apartment Complex managed by a Korean Lady, and I was once Peace Corps Korea and so I remembered some Korean, and the Lady knew some English. Peggy was in her Territory now and so she would put out food, and encourage me to take Peggy back, but Peggy would escape. Then tragedy struck... Peggy got her back broke somehow, and the Korean Lady came and told me. I took Peggy to the Vets to euthanize her, but she died in my arms while we waited. For a while I was feeding Angie outside, but I think that Angie got shut into an empty apartment by work men, and must have starved to death. Yeah, if only they had both gotten along, they'd be part of my multicat household today, but females come with problems. But I really did love those two and so it breaks my heart.
