Adoption Tails: Mom cats, Joni, Josie and Betty

 Betty

1 week: “Betty is doing beautifully well.” She ate, drank, and used the litter box within the first 24 hours. “She has been very comfy in her safe room but has begun gradually exploring the rest of the house, always returning at pace to her safe room if she gets startled or feels uneasy. She is being treated like a princess. At this stage we aren’t changing her name, just adding 1000 variations to how you say it, or what it’s added to”

1 month: “Betty is settling in beautifully. She is playing happily, eating well, cuddling us on the couch and sleeping close at night.”

6.5 weeks: “We are just so in love with our beautiful Betty”

Joni

3 days: “She is doing well”. She has eaten, drunk and used the litter tray. They have renamed her. They have a camera set up in her safe room. She doesn’t like the carrier at all so they took it away and she has been hiding under the bed. She comes out to explore when they are not in the room.

1.5 weeks: She is completely fine in her safe room. They’ve opened her safe room door to see if she would like to explore the living room. She started exploring when her owners were sleeping or were out. “We are glad she is settling well”

 

5 weeks: “She is doing pretty well”. She often comes out from underneath the bed and plays with their resident cat while her owners are sleeping.

Josie

3 days: She hasn’t used the litter tray or eaten yet. She has been moving around in different hiding spots but still appears very scared. They will be keeping her name.

1.5 weeks: She is still very scared but is eating lots and toileting every day. Her owner can hear her coming out at night when it’s dark.

5 weeks: 

“Josie is doing well. Very playful at night when it’s dark and has her favourite bed up high in the kitchen. Here she can keep her eyes on me. Still not letting me pick her up but she loves being stroked in her bed.”
