I'm sorry to hear that you will not be able to keep both of your cats with you.
I'm glad that Beau will have a new home and that you will be able to visit him.
I hope that you will be able to keep Felicia with you or find a good person to take care of her for you.
Sending hugs your way, I know this can't be easy for you.
Just remember that you are a part of the Pet Talk family and that we care about you and your cats here.
