Hi Everyone.
Thanks for the nice messages you all left; they are much appreciated. When I was at school on Monday, my parents gave away Nitschke and Jake to a kind lady and her family who live close to our house. I emailed the lady, as Karen suggested, to tell them about Nitschke and Jake and ask how they were doing. The lady emailed me back, with this nice message:
"Thank you so much for the info. Both of them are doing just fine. Jake is such a loving cat. Nitschke is still getting used to her new home. Both of them crawled into bed with me though last night. I love both of them so much. I will send you pictures and updates every once in a while. Thank you so much for such wonderful kitties. We will make sure to celebrate their birthdays."
I will always miss them and keep them in my heart, but it helps to know that they went to such a wonderful, loving family and that at least I got to spend some time with them and love them.
Nellie and Reggie, in turn, are doing well. Of course, they miss the two youngest, but they feel like they have more to themselves, so they are happy. Both of their purrsonalities are coming out more. Attached are two recent photos of them. Reggie is going to turn two on Valentine's Day (his estimated Date of Birth) while Nellie is 4 and a half.
Once again, thanks for all the kind messages! They are much appreciated.
-Catloverforever, with Love From Nellie and Reggie

Oh, that sounds like they went to a perfect home, and she sounds really nice. What a relief for you!

I am very happy to read such a happy ending, i just hope in the future your parents would at least discuss something as important as that with you, i would always do that with my teenager, explain the reasons and at least prepare them for what is going to happen, so unfair they way it was done, and very upsetting for you.
