Typically, I do not adopt out cats or kittens after Dec 12th. Experience has shown me that Christmas “spontaneous” adoptions rarely work. but this woman who called me earlier sounded quite distraught. She has recently lost her 15 year old to cancer and she said she can’t bear the thought of another day without a cat or a kitten in her life.

We talked extensively and she is partial to either white kitties, black kitties, siamese kitties, gold kitties. So I am taking in the morning to her home four potential adoptions: Jordan (2 year old Siamese mix) Sophia (one of the distemper survivors) Agatha (the four year old Calico with a strange tail) and Roscoe the rambunctious one.

This is not a case of 6 year old Sarah wanting a kitty for Christmas. This is an older woman who adores cats and has found herself catless and unable to bear it. If all goes well- one of mine will find their furrever home tomorow.

Wish me luck- we are off to the adoption!
