Adoption Tails: Lucky (girl)

  Lucky

1 week: “She is still very very shy and didn’t eat for the first day. She’s since come around and is eating and using her litter tray regularly!!” 

She’s still in her own room with the door closed but they have a cat camera in the room. 

“I can see Lucky has changed her comfort spot a few times (cupboard, under wardrobe, in a washing basket with clothes) and even comes out while we’re at home walking around!”

2 weeks: “Jordan and I were both just really just waiting for the right opportunity and time to adopt after moving in together. We both had been keeping our eye on the Roseville SAFE adoption page for a few weeks till one Saturday we decided we would go in.

 We both went in with very open minds and our only criteria was that they had to be toilet trained. After finding out they all were toilet trained, we spent all morning being introduced to ALL the kittens and cats at the shelter. When we got to lucky we both recognised her as one of the longer term residents and stopped so we could say hello. She was curled up in the corner staring back at both of us and we just fell in love. We were told Lucky is a very timid and shy gal but jordan and I were overjoyed when she came out and ate some treats that we offered to her. After we saw all the beautiful cats and kittens we always kept coming back to Lucky and sitting with her to feed her treats. We (finally) left the shelter on the Saturday afternoon but we’re back by Sunday ready to adopt Lucky.

 We’ve had her for 2 weeks now and we’re still earning her trust but love watching her slowly come out of her shell. during the day when we’re not around she loves to roam around in her big room, and to sit by the window soaking up all the sunshine. She’s made herself very comfortable in our washing baskets of clean clothes which we do not dare to disturb and have sacrificed for the time being!”
