Final update on my daughter's adoption of sister/brother kitties

LilacTree · ‎03-25-2012

I last wrote about this around the 15th, about two weeks ago. The kittens have adjusted beautifully with my daughter's existing cat, Macy. In fact they all play together, and now they all share the "family bed" with my daughter every night. It couldn't be more "purr-fect!"

My daughter is thrilled and so am I. I wanted you all to know because you have been so kind to my posts all along about my daughter's loss of her beloved Minou, her ragdoll cat, earlier this year. She still misses her and always will. But this is helping.

Yay!! ${#emotions_dlg.thumbup}$

Ford, I'm so glad to hear all is going so well with the kittens. I know your daughter will always miss the one she lost, as we all do. But it sounds like these little ones were meant to be a part of her family, and I'm so glad also that they could stay together and not be separated from each other. Wish them all well for me! ${#emotions_dlg.thumbup}$

I will kitty! It seems almost like fate stepped in. When poor little Minou died, little did my daughter know she would be adopting two little kitties, brother and sister, because she hated the thought of them being separated. She saw them growing every week when she volunteered at PetSmart and no one was interested in both of them, so they were probably going to be separated just to get them sold. So she took them, not knowing how it would work out with Macy. But it did work out beautifully!

Is Macy acting like their Mom?? Sounds purrfect ${#emotions_dlg.laugh}$ to me too!!, all the more to love! ${#emotions_dlg.wub}$

I am happy to read that all is good with your daughter and her cat family. It was very kind of her to keep the brother and sister together. I raised two sisters from birth, and they do form a special bond. My best to all of them always.

Thanks for the wonderful update, JSS Babe; this was definitely destined. ${#emotions_dlg.thumbup1}$

Plus, two new grandkitties for you. Smile

Yes, she does. Even to the point that when the kittens are too much for her she bats them away with her paw, and they know what that means and they back off.

I am so thrilled about this. Not often do we get a situation where it works out for all. My daughter is so happy about this . . . it's wonderful to see after she has been so sad for so long. Smile

Yes. We've raised a lot of litters over the years and that's exactly how the mommy cat acts when the kittens "misbehave." I can't wait to see them, I have held back because of my new back injury (she has a very high flight of stairs to her apartment) . . . but also because I don't want to disturb the family balance right now. I will see them before Christmas.
