So they have been out for two days now, they seem to stay around by the back door. I know that Winnie has ventured out because the boys were out playing and they were worried that she has jumped the fence. I told them it will be okay she is just out checking everything out and she will be back. Winnie was a stray when we brought her in when we lived in Pittsburgh.
I did look into taking them to the humane society but the have to be up to date on all their shots and not be sick. Some of you know Orca has a cyst on her rib cage that the doctor said is nothing to worry about but I don't think they would take her anyway. So not to seperate them that is why they are outside.
Now on a positive note I will have less hair to contend with! Hope none of you think we are being cruel we are just doing what we feel is best.
jen, i don't know if you know that our cat gracie went to cat heaven for this very reason. after a year of vet visits, putting her on cat antidepressants and anxiety meds, behavioral therapy, etc, i just couldn't handle the mess she was making all over our house. i don't think you are cruel at all... just doing what needs to be done for your family. hope they adjust to the outdoors quickly!
ReplyDeleteJenn, I completely understand about the cats. It's sad that you have to do this, but it will all work out. The needs of your family and their health come first. It will take a while to get rid of the hair, it was 6 months before I noticed it when we had to put Frosty down. I am surprised the boys are worried, they didn't pay much attention to them before. You did the best of a bad situation.
