A bittersweet so long to kitty.

She's going to a new home today. A neighbor of mine was taking care of a stray cat since last summer. Try as she might she couldn't get the kitty to come indoors so we've (the neighbor and myself) been feeding her and playing with her. I even built her an insulated shelter that she lived in last winter. I have two cats, my neighbor has two dogs and a cat so neither of us could take her in. We found an organization that takes in strays so all we had to do was catch kitty. Now this young cat evaded all our efforts to trap her until today. My neighbor, an elderly lady, shed a few tears to see her go but it's for the best. She'll be safer indoors and a family to take care of her. So long lil' girl, we'll miss you.

We've been feeding a stray for about a year and a half.
he wont go near the live trap though. he's getting a little
more use to us but still skittish. your doing the right thing.
she needs a safe home of her own.
 
They tried a live trap at first but she wasn't having it. Anything out of the ordinary and she shied away from it. She got used to us, we could feed & pet her but couldn't pick her up. We put a pet carrier on the porch and started putting some treats in it. Then this week my neighbor began putting her food bowl in there. Kitty finally would go to eat in while we were around and this morning we managed to close the gate with her in it. This all began last summer so sometimes it takes a while. Don't give up :)
 
Well she is certainly a cute looking thing! And yeah it kinda sorta sucks but you guys did well, for her in the long run! :)
 
We wont give up on him. if we have the patio door open he will
come in the house and snoop around. he was coming in the cat
door at night when we had the really cold weather last winter.
I built him a house and he uses it quite a bit. our 3 cats seem to get
along with him ok. when people ask us how many cats we have
we tell them 3 and a half. he was out on the deck getting some
sun the other day and I got a pic of him.

We purposely avoided giving her a name because it would have made parting harder but she does a have personality :)20190425_170101.jpg
