A little more of the story:

The concern the lady had was about "litter box habits." Upon my observation, Leda missed the box sometimes. Not because she goes outside, but because she allows her butt end to hang over the side of lower boxes. I (of course) mentioned this to them when I first spoke to them. I ALWAYS "tell it like it is"!!! But the lady took this to mean that Leda would potty around the house. I assured her that with a deeper or covered box, she should have no problems.

So they met her.

She, of course, was as scared as I knew she would be. I had her in the cage (so she didn't hide under the sofa). And she huddled and growled.

WE all talked (A LOT!) and Ipicked her up and let her into the room. She huddled by the door wanting to get out.

But I sat by her, petted her and we talked more.

The man tried to pet her....OK.... but also tried to hold her.....didn't last long. (LOL)

So I held her so the lady could pet her.

They will need to shop for all of her things as they have not had a pet in years. I will deliver her to her new home this Sunday and make sure she settles in. I will also be getting her back at thankgiving for a week while they vacation. (they don't think she would react well to a stranger pet sitting).

If she can manage her first 2 weeks in her new home I believe they can't help but fall in love with her.

I'll try to get new photo soon.

Oh, that sounds nice! Great opportunity for Leda, and a nice ending all around. PLUS you will get to see her again shortly!

[QUOTE=jenluckenbach] you can risk a few cramps for me,right? /QUOTE]
I sure can, Jen! It couldn't be for a better cause, a happy Leda with her furever family. This sounds like it has a real possibility, an older couple with an only cat... purrfect together. Here's hoping things work out all the wway around.

Leda being Pet of the Week, how great is that? Concatulations beautiful Leda!!!

Please let us know what happens?

How are things going with Leda in her new home.
We have Porch Angels on duty explaining to her that these people truly want to love her.
We are praying that Leda learns to love them too.

[jenluckenbach]

Momcat and Gary. This thread is outdates. Leda's adoption did NOT go through, She is still here.

[catmandu]

Is my face red!
I am sorry Jen!
I know that someone is out there who can see past the scraed Cat,and see the Cat Leda could become.
The Found Cats are shaking thier heads.

[momcat]

Oh Jen, I am so sorry for the misunderstanding. But I am happy to know that Leda is still under your loving care.
