I went completely mad & adopted 4 in one day

Lizzie you and I have not had the pleasure to meet. I have belonged to PT for some time but due to major computer problems I have been out of commission for a while.
I too work at an animal shelter and I know I would fall over backwards if someone came in and adopted not one or two but FOUR special needs cats!!! I can't thank you enough for what you did! You are a wonderful and very special person and I have no doubt that those babies will reward you ten times over for giving them a chance to have a loving home.


!GOD BLESS YOU!

I admire you for working at an animal shelter, something I don't have the emotional ability to do, I know.

I am already becoming attached to them all in their individual ways, and they are starting to show their own personalities. Thumper is a litter box tipper, something I've never had to deal with before though I've dealt with many other litter box issues. I don't know how I'm going to deal with this since I have about 15 litter boxes for the upstairs cats and when they are all in together, he could cause absolute chaos.

Thumper is the only one who isn't hand-shy in some way, so I'm wondering if they were at least partly feral when rescued. I've figured out from the records and having Thumper's age assessed at about 4-5 years old that he's been at the shelter since he was a kitten. I decided to reach under the chair today to fuss Blackberry and, to my relief, he pushed into my hand and purred. When I went back into his room an hour later, he was in the chair for the first time and, although nervous about me being in the room, stayed on the chair as I shuffled forward on my knees to fuss him. I'm looking forward to cuddling with this cat when he's ready.

Please give Blackberry extra scritches for me. I know that boy thinks he is in heaven.......and he is, thanks to you.

This whole thread makes me want to cry!!!!

You are truly sent from heaven.. You are such an ANGEL to adopt those four precious babies. I CAN'T WAIT to see more pictures of them.

The story about them interested in your cup of tea made me smile. Those babies are so lucky to have you!!!

I do not think you are crazy for thinking Ted sent you to Thumper. I think my RB Samo sent me Samantha and always have. It is like they leave little clues to let you know they sent them too... the "special things" that only they did. Sambo was a very clingy cat, the only clingy cat I ever had and Samantha is getting to be VERY clingy and just the fact that she sat on MY doorstep, begging to come in for 2 years, she KNEW she belonged here, not at that other house. I think Sambo led her here and told her this was where she was to live and to sit there any cry until I let her in. Give Thumper time and he is going to blossom with you like Samantha has with me.
