    That's a hard decision and one I know you didn't make lightly. Please be gentle with yourself. Gentle hugs and headbumpies to you, yours and Nakita.

    I am so very sorry! You did every thing possible to make this work, so please don't blame yourself! I know you love Phoenix, and I'm so sorry you are having to say goodbye to her! She will be fine though! She may even find another home with another kitty who will enjoy her company ... in most cases it does work! Your Nakita has just always been an only cat, and a very pampered Princess, who we ALL love!!! I hope and pray that she will calm down now and get back to being your special girl! When she does, I hope you will spoil us all here with some beautiful Nakita pictures!

    Love and Hugs,
    Kim

    I am so sorry that Phoenix did not work for Nakita. I just hope Nakita will return to the cat you love. So take a break to grieve your loss, but still remember to keep us updated on our little Nakita.

    I'm so sorry to hear that Phoenix didn't work out. Please don't blame yourself because you did everything right. Some cats are just meant to be only cats and Nakita as you have now learned is one of them. I'm sure that little Phoenix will find a new loving forever home very quickly and be a happy little girl. I hope that Nakita's health will improve and that she'll become happier again. Please continue to keep us updated about her. (((HUGS)))

    Phoenix looks like a very self reliant Cat who will make herself at home in 99% of the Furr Ever Homes she goes to.
    I know in my heart of hearts that she sure would fit in the Found Cat Hotel, it wouldnt take her long to fit into the piles here.
    I just wish the Animal Control threat was not hanging over my head.
    But Phoenix might be worth taking a chance.

    Gary, you're one of a kind and have a huge heart. Thank you so much for thinking of Phoenix. As many have said she will easily find another home - we actually have a few leads and who could resist that face.

    You already have your hands full - especially with recent events with Animal Control keeping an eye out. Cuddle your kids and make sure you keep everyone safe. Adding another cat will not help you in the long run and could actually make things worse for the rest of your crew.

    Reality plays a strong hand here as I just recently found out with trying to introduce Phoenix. It breaks your heart in many pieces but you have to do what's right for the whole household - not just for one. I am very confident Phoenix will find the right forever home.....I just wanted MY home to be that one. I know that I made the right decision but that doesn't make it any easier on my heart.

    Thanks so much for the words and sympathy you have shown. I never knew I could be so lost after just a month - but it's amazing how fast one's life can change. It's going to take some time for everything to feel right again. If you could still keep thinking and sending some healing vibes Nakita's way I'd really appreciate it.

    ((( Hugs to everyone for your support & friendship )))

    I'm awfully sorry that things didn't work out with lovely Phoenix. I am sure that it will not take her long to find the right home, and I really hope that Nakita settles again.
