Ever since i had to get rid of caesar and esther, I've been wanting to
get another cat, I'm an extreme cat lover for many reasons. Well chris
and i are finally in a position to get one, and yesterday i went to the
humane society and i got a kitty. Her name at the shelter was Lola, but
i've renamed her to bella. Bella is like a cackey type coloring. She's
2.5 years old, and she was given up by a family because they couldn't
figure out why she was constantly chewing on herself etc. Turns out
she's got a flee allergy and so that family gave her up because they
couldn't afford to help her.
I braught her home yesterday and let her out of the carrier she
immediately jumped on the counter, and curled up in the corner. She was
very riendly and let us pet her and talk to her. But when we left her
alone she vanished and hid for a good 12 hours. She didn't want her
dinner and i ended up throwing it away. She ate the majority of the dry
food though, so that's good. She came out around 11-midnight or so and
was investigating everything. She cried at me but when i went to pet her
she hid and wouldn't come to me for nothing.
I finally found the secret to make her come out though! Bribe her with
food and petting. You can tell she wants to make friends she's just shy.
The next couple of days/weeks will be interesting as she adjusts She
goes to the vet friday for a free checkup and flee medicine.
Bella likes chris i think with some time she'll purr for both of us.:)
