Just when I think I know what I am doing, God intervenes and I thank Him daily that he does! I have been in contact with an Abyssinian Rescue group out of Washington State. They have put me in touch with a 59 year old Registered Nurse (works with cancer patients wouldn’t you know) who is interested in taking BOTH the cats! She has no other pets, no children that live with her and she is a homebody after work so she can devote all her spare time to them. Her name is Toni and I will be taking the girls up on Thursday to her home.
What is standing in my way (as always is funding) She is going to make a donation for the gas, but I need an oil change before I make this 12 hour trip and I am going to set up my car to allow Treat to travel not in the carrier and hopefully her sister to be in the backseat. Treat will be held by one of my volunteers who is going with me on the trip. Please pray this all comes together. The people I talked to prior to Toni only want one cat not both and there is NO WAY I am going to let them lose the only anchor to their past they have left which is each other.
Trick was trembling earlier and I did a few head rubs and chin tickles on her, then lifted her on the bed and we just laid there. Thankfully, she isn’t prone to panic attacks like her sister and she doesn’t have that nervous energy that turns her into a whirling dervish! I hate that she has to stay in this cage right now and Thursday cannot come quick enough for me.
I know you always do what you think is best for the ktities you rescue. I am glad to hear these two wil lbe going to someone who can tire them out daily for they wil need that. I am also glad she will be with them most of the day for they will need a strong compassionate person to love them.
Have you considered trying the calming collar like the one you used on Patience? It might help. You and yours are in our thoughts and prayers.
Go girls! A new forever home together! Yeah!!
Excellent news. I’ve sent you some funds through Paypal. I hope they help.
