English/German as always.
In the two weeks she was here Indira has not learned to trust me. While she isn’t afraid of my cat Miez anymore, she still hisses at me when I get too close for her comfort and runs away. Although she seems to be a totally cuddly cat, I’m not allowed to pet her directly. When the lady visited, she was allowed to per her almost instantly. It seems we just didn’t “click”, so I’m happy a very nice family will take her in.
Morgen wird meine Pflegekatze Indira in ihr neues Zuhause kommen, also habt hier eine Minute Schnurren von ihr
In den letzten zwo Wochen hat Indira nicht gelernt mir zu vertrauen. Meiner Miez gegenüber verhält sie sich nicht mehr ängstlich, aber sobald ich ihr zu nahe komme faucht sie und/oder rennt davon. Obwohl sie offenbar eine totale Schusekatze ist, darf ich sie immer noch nicht direkt streicheln. Als die Dame zu Besuch kam durfte sie Indira fast sofort direkt streicheln. Es schein einfach zwischen uns nicht zu funken, daher bin ich glücklich eine sehr nette Familie für Indira gefunden zu haben.
I guess I have always been hyper-rational. I know we don’t connect and know she does with the other lady, and I know I will have many other cats to take (temporary) care of. While I enjoyed taking care of her, I still think that it’s for the best this way. Maybe one day I will keep a foster cat as my own additionally to Miez, but only if they get along perfectly, which wasn’t the case here. Indira is way too energetic for Miez.
Thank you for providing a safe and stable home for her to grow and play in until she could meet her Forever Friend! And thanks to Miez for demonstrating the kitty basics!
Really awesome you have this mental and emotional compacity. What you are doing is truly compassionate :) I get so attached to my cute cats that I couldn’t let them go but I understand the value in what you’re doing. Smart to look for the perfect match. My Chinese and America cats have a Cold War going on
You are a legend
