Shy abandoned cat finds love again

  • Many shy cats that we find outside aren’t feral. Some have been out there so long they’ve pretty much just shut down.
    I suspected that this was not a feral cat - he didn’t seem scared - just, traumatized. This is an abandoned cat that once had a home.
    Foster volunteers don’t just give cats a place to stay. They help them heal, in so many different ways.
    They teach cats what it feels like to love and be loved.
    Thank you - for giving Chuck, and so many more, the love we all deserve!

      @@debsn7772 In fairness to landlords, pets --- or, perhaps better stated, pet owners --- can sometimes bring certain issues. It's not that most landlords dislike pets, but their first priority is on maintaining their asset or investment. Once you stop and think about this from a landlord's perspective, you won't really have to struggle with why landlords "feel justified" in not allowing tenants to have pets.

    We feed an abandoned cat, and house him during the winter (luckily in Cali, so not as cold as NY). His family moved and left him, he was a neighborhood fixture. After about a year, we are able to give him rubies and brushes, but he's still quite wary if you try and hold him, so we just give and take what he allows. He recently exposed his belly!

    A couple of years ago I also adopted an abandoned cat. His family moved away and they didn't care about taking him with them because he was "mean". It took us month to gain his trust and the first visit to the vet was a nightmare. During the winter was the first time we let him in the house and he was like a different cat. We only had him for 1 1/2 years, because he had bad kidney problems, but he spent his last years with lots of love and cuddles. It was an amazing to see how a scared and "mean" cat can become the biggest cuddler. I hope all cats find a great and loving home, because all cats deserve love. ❤️

      I think my current guy was left behind, after a summer of hanging around the back of my apartment building and being friendly to everyone when the weather turned I just had to take him in- even thought I wasn't allowed in my lease.
      I had to hide him until I got a new lease but he was well worth it, he has a little bit of trust issues but he's come a long way with that in our 3 years together.
      I'd like to think for every person who is callous towards an animal's feelings there are more who care, and I know there are at least 2 who'll go out of their way to rescue them (as in you and me!). Happy Holidays from me and Buddy the cat!

Finally, one night while I was watching TV, he came up to me, looked me in eye, jumped up and settled down. After about 10 minutes of soft talking and light petting, he started to purr. We were buddies after that for 7 years. When I taught him about being outdoors, his personality blossomed. I miss the little bugger.

    I look after a colony of cats here in São Miguel Azores, Portugal. I have two female cats that I am certain have been abandoned. They are both so loving and kind. I wish they were with forever families. 😢

    Sad that people think that abandoning a creature you have taken responsibility for is somehow less horrible than actual abuse. That said, I am sure several of these events are truly not on purpose as the pet may elope due to stress and return to the old area it lived in, or that a pet is not found during moving and the owners (due to economic realities) just have to leave. How many are accidental is anyones guess.
