Yep. So many sweet kitties out there who need homes. And I totally would have taken him regardless of the diagnosis at the time, I really did fall in love with him when I met him, from the moment I saw his gums I knew it wasn’t just gingivitis, I just wanted as much info as possible so I could be prepared, but the whole experience with them was pretty negative and demoralizing and their application was honestly just awful and asked nothing in regards to my experience owning cats, why I want a cat, how my place is set up for cats/what I provide for them, nothing like that (the rescue I got Moose from asked all these things and wanted pictures of my home, too)… it was all just questions like “how important is it that the cat likes children? how important is it that the cat likes to be held?” and I felt like I was just waiting around for them to eventually tell me they had given him to someone else despite knowing virtually nothing about me, or that I just wouldn’t hear back from them at all
BUT I’d like to think these things all happen for a reason, had they communicated more and been a bit friendlier I would have waited it out instead of giving up hope and never would have gone to the SPCA/found this handsome little man who very much needs a cat savvy person to help him shine and clearly the SPCA thought I was great because they approved me the same day, which they apparently don’t usually do lol
