Is this fate? Or am I stupid?

[catnapper]

Don't answer the stupid question~!

I saw Angel's adoptive parents last night. They were telling me just how well she's doing.. I listened to a hundred stories about how loving and wonderful she is. With each story I missed her a little more. Even though I KNOW she went to the absoulte right home, my dull ache opened up and I miss her as much as I did when she left last Christmas. I still haven't deleted her photos off Photobucket because I still consider her MY girl.

Guess what plea from the rescue came to my e-mail inbox this morning? apparently her "twin" appeared at the shelter last night and needs an immediate foster home.

I am so tempted. I know that if he/she comes here he/she won't be leaving because he/she will be a replacement for Angel. The rescue knows that too... and they are probably jumping up and down with glee.

Ugh, I can't afford another cat! Yes, I can afford food and love, but not the vet care, ESPECIALLY not the vet care for what its going ot do to Pouncer.

Oh man, what to do? Hopefully someone else will come along and snatch this beauty up and I don't have to stress about it. But I WANT HIM/HER. Its only 6 weeks old, like Angel was when she came here a year ago. Fate?

Oh dear. Maybe this twin is meant to come through you to someone else. Maybe someone who lost their furbaby recently.

I wouldn't be surprised if your husband runs into someone at work who is looking for a baby.

HUGS and prayers!

Go on. You can do it! *nudges*

Who knows, maybe you'll find a home for this little beebee in a heart beat!

Come on, Kim, we're rooting for you!

Everybody feel free to boo me ~ but I vote no. You have so much stress in your life right now with work, finances, home repairs, health issues, kids, grandchildren, etc. A new kitty in the house could push you over the edge. Let someone else step up the to plate. It will be good for them.

If your health or home fails, lots of kitties would be in trouble. Take care of what you've got first. Then, you can always make room for another.

Do you ever watch/read Suze Orman? Her motto is "People first, then money, then things." Now (of course) I put cats into the people category -- probably not what she's thinking -- but now is the time to get yourself and your family back on stable footing.

*kiss* ah, the voice of reason!

I needed to hear that! I WANT him/her, my heart is crying out but my mind is saying NOOOOOOOOOOOOO

[GreyhoundGirl]

I have to agree with kuhio, It would be nice for you to give this new furbaby a home. But if you got into $ troubles, all your furkids might be in trouble. what If this cat needs surgey all of a sudden? Anything could happen. Tell everyone you know, though and lets see if we can get this baby a home.

Best of luck !

Just a question... if you foster her, would the shelter pay for her vet bills?
