Shall I adopt her?

[Barbara]

Sonia do you really think you can come here and hear a "No you should think twice ".

Asking PT can only mean you have already made up your mind I am very keen to hear how kitty will be named. I think she deserves a more princess-like name than Roetje (which means Sooty ).

[Maya & Inka's mommy]

No doubt about that, Sonia!!We did 2 adoptions here: the first one was Inka who was 9 weeks. The second one was Zazou who was 1 year old then.
Out of experience, I MUST say that adopting Inka was A LOT easier! Maya accepted Inka as her baby and washed her constantly.
With Zazou, I brought another adult into the household. It is normal that this much harder to accept to the others!

So, go and get that kitten!!! YIPPIE PEPITO, you are a BIG brother now!!

Hey, you didn't take any pics yet???

Sounds like a purfect match and I agree with Barbara, you have already made up your mind and we are happy for you! Now yes... WHERE are the pictures??? What are you going to rename her? Any ideas?

I think that Peppito and the New Cat may hiss at each other at first,but think of all the Photos of Cats curled together.
I know that you would not want to deny your Cat a Friend,one of his own kind to be Pals with.
Just keep them seperated for a week or two,and eventually we will be able to see anothe Cat Dynamic Duo.
That Kitty needs YOU!!!!!!

Thanks everyone! I knew I could count on you. And you are right, I am stupid to post this, because the answer can only be YES!

It's hard to help in a shelter (I mean you get attached), but I find it harder for the old or sick cats because you think they will never be adopted and that you have to do something for them.

Yesterday, I have waited for a sign that the little pie chose me, but I am not sure... Of course, she was a bit scared by her new environment, so she would not have come and jump on my lap... And she purred, but almost all of them are purring at this age so it does not mean anything. But you are right, if she allowed me to melt for her, she probably chose me!

I asked Peppito but he did not want to answer clearly! Cannot count on this boy
I have carefully read some of the threads about introducing a new cat and it is very useful! This is also what made me think a young cat would be a better idea. Someone said that sexually immature cats are not perceived like a threat by the older cat.

In fact I already melted for this little orangie girl, and the time I decide (OK, I am not in a hurry and they always have new kitties) she was adopted! Look how cute she is!

OK, I told her goodbye yesterday, I am sure she will be happy

So, this time I have to decide faster! Sorry Lut, I have no picture (yet!)

To Gary: I always admire your cat piles , but impossible to obtain with only one cat, even big! With two I would come closer...although I don't think Peppito will ever sleep with another kitty! Well, I would like to be wrong

Keep you posted

I think it sounds like you have found your new kitten. I can't wait to hear more.
