Oh, this wouldn't be until after I move. Sadly, my parents don't want to introduce another cat into our house until after Mimi goes. After Olivia died, Mimi got used to the single cat thing. Well, Olivia was MUCH older than Mimi and Olivia was the matriarch with all the attention going to her (Olivia would bat Mimi - we adopted them from a no kill cat shelter; Olivia was rescued from a hoarder. Mimi was 3 when we adopted her, Olivia 13. Mimi's other owner gave her up with her health issues). After Olivia died, all the attention now goes to Mimi. My parents are nervous with Mimi now that Mimi is 10 years old and her health issues.
I just feel sad about seeing ferals and when I'm on my own, I thought it might be nice to try.
Nothing wrong with that, and you may get lucky. Good luck if you decide to try. Like I said previously, if you're going to do it, try and get the cat to bond with you as much as you can now. You will be turning it's world upside down and it will be stressful for the cat. If it hasn't developed a relationship with you, or is still mostly feral when you take it in, you may have a more difficult time getting the cat to accept it all.
Reminds me of the Christmas buying season when I had a ton of boxes from internet shops showing up at the house, I'd unpack them and there were often bubble wrap or those big plastic inflated air pack things...Nimbus loves the packing materials. I'd give him one of those air-pack thingies and he'd grab it and carry it off, pop it and then act startled when air came out of it.
Of course I made sure he only played with that stuff with supervision, and only briefly before I threw them in the trash...he does not need plastic in his diet.
Haha, too cute. I'm not sure why Mimi likes the ice pack. I guess the water. I know when she goes on the back porch, she can stare at the spout with water dripping out of it for hours.
