I can't express how grateful I am for all the kind responses (& so quickly!). There's something unique & special about animal lovers. The new cat actually took a chunk out of my other cat's ear & my husband is having a fit. A lady called me about the ad I placed & she's very interested in meeting the young cat. We're going over there tonight to see how it goes. She has a golden lab & her 20-yr old cat just passed away. I appreciate all your kind help. I plan to visit the shelter to seek out a more gentle cat for company for my other sweetie. Thanks so much.
