A few weeks ago we made the tough decision to take one of our 5 cats to the Humane Society. Freckles had been getting dirtier as time went on. She was making messes anywhere she was at the time and it was getting really hard to take. The decision to get rid of her was not an easy one as we had had her since birth and of course the love and attachment one has with a pet was there. I did miss her greeting me each morning begging for her treats which she would inhale. We called it her Kitty Crack and stocked up on a regular basis.
The overall feel in the household has been better without Freckles messes to deal with and Fuzzy one of the two males in the household has been a bit calmer too. The two of them were always battling and I think that was one of the biggest reasons she made the messes that she did.
To make a long story short, the Humane Society called this morning asking what kind of cat food we had fed her because she wasn't eating very well and they were getting concerned. Well hearing that made for alot of tears and talk. We talked to each of the girls about the situation and both agreed that we need to bring her home. Will and I both agreed that that was the only decision we could make in the matter.
Today it is snowing for the first time all winter and driving anywhere is not recommended. With the decision made to return her home we now must wait for the roads to clear a bit. If a prior appointment made for today gets cancelled then we will most definitely get her as soon as we can.
I know that all the reasons we got rid of her in the first place are still here, and we have all agreed to take that in stride and deal with it.
