Agatha, the rescue from Portland, the dilute calico with the mystery tail now has her own home! The home was small which was to her liking although the first place she decided to hide was under their Christmas tree! Then, she decided under the sectional sofa was a much better option but before she dove under, she made the rounds met the mom, the dad and the 8 year old boy.
For the time I was there, I was encouraged because I kept checking her whereabouts. At first, she was squished in the corner, but as the minutes went by and I shone my flashlight under the sofa, she was inching closer and closer to the front and ready to come out of hiding. I suspect in two days she will be sharing their bed and purring them to sleep. YAY! Now, I can take Glory off the cold porch and put her in the bedroom-
4:19 p.m. Just received a call from Kristie, Agatha’s new owner. Two hours after I left, Aggie came out from under the couch, jumped on Tyler’s lap, head-bumped him several times and has been out ever since! She is eating and Kristie told me I was right- Agatha’s purrs fill the room. I loved getting that phone call. Fitting end to a turbulent beginning for this wonderful cat.
Concats to Agatha. A great Christmas present for all concerned.
We suspect once everyone goes to bed Agatha will give the place a through checking out. Wouldn’t surprise us much if they find her sound asleep in the middle of the living room floor tomorrow morning.
Great news!!
Regarding the Update – It would not surprise us overmuch to find Agatha was hiding mostly to make sure you didn’t try to grab her and take her back home.
ConCATs on your furrrever home, Agatha, and enjoy a long and happy life there.
Thanks a lot! I’m not THAT bad! 🙂
Merry christmas
Merry Christmas, Agatha. Merry Christmas, Glory. Merry Christmas to all!
What good news, for both you and Agatha. She may hide from time to time over the next few days, but once she starts sharing her feelings with new people, there’s no going back. Hurrah for Agatha!
