Tover isn’t out…

Nine days after being adopted out, Tover is back home. The woman had unrealistic expectations of how a cat “should” behave and he wasn’t quick enough on the program apparently. I picked him up late last night and he is still showing uncertainty in his eyes- but he did lay with me earlier and fell asleep on my lap. I am waiting now for him to leap up on me and drape his back leg over my arm- which is his favorite position when I am at the computer.

Cooper, the larger Siamese mix male was adopted out today and there is a couple who is showing an interest in the other three kitties as well. It would be nice to keep them mostly together- but time will tell as I haven’t visited the perspective home yet.

Cooper will live with a widow and her one orange kitty and he should do just fine.

  1. One wonders how these people do or would do with children. Whatever we may want, living creatures aren’t robots and don’t respond exactly as we wish. We have to take that into account. Just let a cat be a cat and enjoy it.

  2. I can’t believe that people don’t expect an orientation period for the cat to get used to a totally new place and for the people to discover the cat’s real personality. Even with a new kitten, there are adjustments to be made. These people should just go buy a stuffed toy rather than a real, live animal.

  3. A few years ago, there was a kind of a fad for robot pets (mostly dogs, best we remember). We used to wonder what the point of that was, but after seeing people like Tover’s temporary owner, it starts to make a little sense. A robot cat might be just what she is looking for.
