These two candy kittens have been introduced into my program individually seven years in the past. Each on the shy facet, they met in my foster room and bonded immediately. I knew that they wanted one another.
After I handed them off to their adopter, I felt it was the correct dwelling, they usually have been socialized and prepared. I shared with their adopter how useful it will be to proceed dealing with and holding them typically.
Sadly, the e-mail I obtained from their adopter in early December, seven years later (!), left me sick to my abdomen. She described them as “feral kittens” and mentioned she couldn’t deal with or maintain all of them these years. She claimed they weren’t bonded in any respect. Then she mentioned that just a few years in the past, she’d entrusted them to a pal when she needed to transfer, however now the pal was shifting and will now not look after them. She additionally knowledgeable me that she explored taking them to shelters, however no shelter would settle for “feral” 7-year-old cats.
My infants!
