    Nancy...I don't know you much at all, being kind of new. I am more in agreement with the person who said at least if you called some of the rescue groups, at least you would know you had tried.

    If - by some chance - your new landlord knew the age of Felicia, and you signed something saying you would have no more cats after her....and would accept a damage deposit - might that help?

    YOu know a bunch of us here would chip in!

    Just a thought

    You may even get a note from your doctor stating that she is your therapy animal since having to be sepreated from a pet you have had that long would sure distress you and there IS a lot to be said about purr therapy and the comfort they bring during bad times. If I tried to explaine that to a doctor of mine, I would really be upset and bawling like a baby at the thought of having to give up my pets and they would clearly see that it was not to MY benifit to have to be sepreated from them.

    Felicia is a "leave me alone cat." Especially if she is sitting or laying around and Beau comes near her. On the other hand, they sometimes eat out of the same dish at the same time.

    I am going to ask about taking her there. She is therapy for me.

    Thanks to all of you. You gave me ideas I hadn't thought of.

    First off, I am so sorry to hear that you are having health and financial issues. You will be in my prayers that things will turn around for you.

    Secondly, I can only imagine how terribly hard this must be for you to part with your cats. My heart goes out to you. I'm glad to hear that you were able to find a good family for Beau and will be able to see him from time to time.

    In regards to Felicia, I pray that you will be able to keep her with you as I just cannot see her doing well anywhere else considering her age and temperament.

    Oh, I do hope so - we'll all chip in and make her a "Therapy Cat" vest if she'll wear it!

    (Miss Hoppy would not even wear a harness, never mind a vest of any sort.)

    Different people and different ideas - that's what's good about the Pet Talk community! And we all want the best for you and Beau and Felicia.

    Jen i don't think Donna meant to sound unkind, she was just saying that she should look at other options or otherwise that is probably how she would be feeling, like you i don't speak for Donna either, but knowing her as I do I am sure she mean't it that way.

    The best thing is Nancy has now looked at other options and is glad of the well meaning suggestions offered by some,and that means maybe Felicia will be around for a lot longer, now that is what i call a happy ending.

    Nancy what an awful dilemma for you to be in, you are the only one who can make this decision, but we are all here to support you either way. HUGS.
