Update: Blind kitty is home
"Phoenix" wrote in message
... Well! We didn't expect it would go this fast. This afternoon, my DH went to take a cat carrier liberally sprayed with Feliway to go sit on the front stoop of my son's house, in hopes of getting UBK (Unnamed Blind Kitty) used to it. A short while later, he called. "I've got her!" (We *think* it's a her. Not real sure yet.) I scurried about setting up the room she'll live in for the nonce (it's where my working desk is, so she will have company large chunks of the time). He said she yelled a couple times, then settled right down. Feliway is magic... Right now, she has not yet come out of the carrier, but is facing out and the door is open. There is a bowl of crunchies just outside the door to tempt her. Wish us luck! And hope she tells us her name one of these days :-) -- Deborah phoenixpdx.livejournal.com First of all, I hope you caught the "right" kitty! (Sounds like there are a lot of ferals being fed at your son's apartment complex.) Secondly, YAY! I'm glad you decided to adopt her. It was really a done deal or you wouldn't have posted about her before you did Don't worry, she'll tell you her name in due time. Jill |

Update: Blind kitty is home
That is great! Our little one, who is sighted, came to us about a month
ago. we handled her a lot and talked to her a lot. We feel it really helped with the acclimation. She was about eight months old at that time. Now she is bossing the other cats around and trying to run the house! We're purring for great success for you and you kitty. Charleen and the purrers. "Phoenix" wrote in message ... Well!

I hope she settles down soon, and begins enjoying the benefits of being a pampered kitty. ~~~~~~~~~~~~ ^..^ "Life without cats would be only marginally worth living." -TC, and the unmercifully, relentlessly, sweet calico kitty, Kenzie.
