Elizabeth - good to hear you're screening your potential adopters well. My feral tabby had 3 kittens last Feb. I immediately advertized and had 2 of the 3 promised within no time. When it came time for the kittens to go one of the people who wanted a kitten backed out and the tiger was adopted by a young family. She wanted the kitten for her little girl for Easter (should have had a red flag up). Anyway she took the kitten and before 3 days were up she told me she would have to take the kitten somewhere because it wee weed on her carpet. I told her definately she would have to take the kitten somewhere and that somewhere was back to me. Anyway to make a long story short this kitten has now been adopted by a gal here at work and has a wonderful home. After a rocky start he's doing great. Moral of the story - I didn't heed my instincts and let this young gal adopt my kitten. I didn't have a good feeling about it. Always trust your instincts.
