Good luck with this but the shelters are full of adult cats needing homes and having to adopt the two together will make it even tougher for them. Just out of curiosity, just where is this old roommate? Did she just dissappear into the night leaving her animals behind? If she did that, I'd hate to hear about all the other irresponsible things she must have done.
I hate to confess but I pretty much did the same thing with the two cats I had too. The first cat was given to us by my sister whose husband had found it at his job. Jasmine was a nice little cat and they said if we ever didn't want her, they'd take her back. After 5 years they did and she is still with them after 6 years. Jane, I took to the shelter. We found her on the street about a year after we took Jasmine in. She'd eat all of Jasmine's food and ripped up my couches. She shed terribly. I figured I had given her four good years and it was either her or my sanity. I did feel a little guilty but couldn't take it any more.
She also had the talent for making the pee come out of the covered litter box which I got so sick of cleaning. People are always suggesting that I get a litter box for Debbie and I just want to scream. |
