Having to Rehome Mina

[Randi]

I agree that you're doing what's best for all, and you WILL be able to visit her, and maybe take her back later. As Karen said, think of it as a Boarding School.

Scritchies and headbumpies from Fister and me.

People first. If you were to keep putting it off, optimistic as you may be, it could turn out badly and you'd never forgive yourself. Mina will be fine; she'll adjust w/your brother and life will be good once more. Bad person? No way. Good mother? Absolutely. Responsible pet owner? Without a doubt.

I Worked With A Lady Who When She Was Young, Her Family Had A Siamese Cat Who Hated Her. Her Family Tried To Have Them Be Friends, And The Cat Sadly Ending Up Clawing Her Face And Ruining The Vision In Her Left Eye, Not To Mention Traumatizing Her Aginst Cats.
This Is The Only Thing You Can Do, And At Least Minas Staying In The Family Where She Can Be Visited. Small Children Sometimes Scrae Cats With Thier Manic Energy And Noisy High Pitched Voices And Sadly some Cats Are More Scared Than Others.

I can only enforce what other's have been saying, YOU are doing the RIGHT thing, absolutely, and don't feel bad Mina is going to a loving home and just think you will be able to visit kitty, even better, i think it is a perfect solution.

I know your heart is breaking, but it will all work out in the end. *hugs*

Sorry Mina isn't adjusting to Cadi.

It is SO frustrating and difficult when you can't MAKE things work. People -- AND Pets -- do have personalities, like and dislikes. Isn't that one of the things we all seem to agree on? That's is what ties us in many way, here on PT. And that is what makes it that we (in this case you) can't MAKE things go the way we want. I am so sorry that you have to face this difficult situation. No, it is NOT something you can ignore, and the risk of waiting to see if it gets "better" is just too great to choose that option.

Hugs to you, and to Cadi, and chin rubs for Mina.
