A New Home . . .

Feb 01, 2013 00:53

I took Ms. Brigit up to her new home yesterday. I think it's going to be good for her. She's got someone who really knows feral cats to look in on her every day now ( Read more... )

That's my girl. She's going to be all right

This is really a heartwarming story. I'm so glad you were able to get her settled in a place you feel good about.

I'm glad you like this tale of a tail. (-: I do feel good about this place. The one drawback of being in a cat sanctuary, though, is that cats who have been at shelters, and thus have respiratory viruses, will keep coming in and spreading viruses around. There were a lot of runny eyes and sneezy cats on the premises, so I hope Brigit's immune system is ready for that. But she'll have shelter, wet food daily, and be much safer from human predation and cars, so it's worth the risk. (-:

It sounds like a good situation. You did very well by her.

Thank you. I think it is. I'll have the jitters about it until I hear more about how she's doing.

as a mom, i know what it feels like, inside, to know that those you love deeply are safe. This must have been difficult for you, but now she is in such a good place. I'm so happy for both of you!

Thank you, bb! I'm wishing I heard more from T about how Brigit's doing, but I know T came down with the flu on Thursday, so I'm sitting on my hands for a few days to let her be and not call her. It can't be fun at all being sick with 33 cats, several dogs, and a couple of kids to take care of.

oy! no, that would certainly not be fun. And this flu is a nasty business, I hear.

(I am betting that Ms Brigit is settling in nicely! T seems to know her business....)

Good for you, sweet one. I hope Brigit is safe and well, and that you know you did everything you could for her.

Thank you, bb. I hope she is doing well. I'll feel better when I get more of a report.

It's good to know that things are going to work out for Brigit.

lavendertook February 5 2013, 02:56:53 UTC

I think they will. I'm hoping so.
