This weekend, Athena will go up for adoption as a special needs Siamese kitty. She needs a home with someone with insurmountable patience and love so that she can feel safe and come out of her shell. Here is our first contact and you can tell, she isn’t quite relaxed enough to enjoy what petting has to offer her.
And here is Echo. She is just a baby but she had 6 kittens they discovered when they spayed her. Now, she is up for adoption and instead of growling and hissing at me- she head bumps me and wants all my attention! I know she is saying thank you for getting me out of motherhood. She is just 6 months old herself.
Poor Athena. My Cammie could empathise – if she were the empathising kind. She just needs someone to take her in and let her set the pace. That’s all. Athena’s sweetness will do the rest, with time.
