He acted like a wild boy and they left.
I need people to come in to help socialize here, but who in the world would do that? I can't get a soul to help.
I am very very discouraged at this point. I'd like to sob. I've only had two serious adoption inquiries in the last several months. Today's was one of them. I can understand Nemo acting half feral. He never sees anybody but me. It's a huge problem and yet I do not know how to resolve it.
Well, back to the drawing board. After some sleep. Got way behind again. And might be getting a cold, feel sick, cold all over, tired beyond what I should be. It would suck to come down with a cold, but these things happen.

They weren't able to understand that he is just not used to visitors?
I wish it had worked out! = (
I made that real clear before they came, but they wanted a cat that would come jump all over them. Zach was doing exactly that, but they were not wanting him. Sam was also, and so was Sage. I don't think they liked his looks. They had wanted a ragdoll I think or something. That's the only reason they were interested. He does have the characteristics of a ragdoll and lots of Siamese in his background. I also think they wanted a younger cat. Even though he is about six months only, he is huge already and is going to be a massive cat in size, once full grown.
What's interesting is they live really close to where he and his siblings and other relatives were struggling. I mean really close. I thought that might be enough that would be willing to work at it a bit, and it would not have taken much time at all, a couple days, but they were not interested.
You have such wonderful ADULT adoptable cats like Zach, Sam and Sage that would make the perfect loving pet. Its a shame everyone wants a kitten - at least with an adult you know their personality and they make great pets - I say go for the "SECOND HAND CATS"!!!!
I do have a bunch of wonderful highly adoptable adults. Even Matilda has become super friendly. I know the draw to kittens, but in just a tiny amount of time, a few short months, kittens are adults. Why not adopt a beautiful teen or adult, who has had time to settle down, who has good habits and is healthy, WHY NOT? It's our instant gratification society, the inability to look past today, or past cuteness. Look what sells on TV, ultra thin women in sexy clothing, violence, but usually not thoughtful TV or informative.
What you need is a reality show - Jody and the adoptable cats! Brought to you each week by Discovery, TLC, etc etc....right after Sarah Palin's Alaska....featuring the most adorable, adoptable, teen and adult cats you'll ever see!
Yes, that is exactly what I need. And they are the best!
