I meantioned about a month ago about the buff colored tabby I took in from a lady who was getting rid of her because they are moving. They had her for 12 years, since Cuddles was 4 weeks old. Well she never had seen another cat in all of her 12 years. She has been in my bedroom now for over a month maybe. After all this time she finally comes to greet me when I come in. I can give her a few pets on the head but then she freaks and bites, swats with her declawed paws, growls, hisses and turns unpleasent.
She is aware of my cats outside the door. I let them in a few times to get some reactions. She freaks and runs into the closet growling and whining. I do this about every few days, let one of mine in to the room.
Otherwise, Cuddles sleeps, eats and goes to the bathroom perfectly normal. I am figuring she will not be able to be rehomed. I can barely touch her let alone pick her up and move her somewhere. No one wants a cat like her. She would be great with an old lady or man who would leave her alone most of the time. But finding that caring old person with no other pets...
Just want some more thoughts if possible. Do you guys think she will ever learn to like other cats? It is overwhelming to her I am sure, with all of my cats so I just let one or two in at a time. Do you think a cat like this can ever be rehomed? Never with kids or more then one or two people of course. She just can't handle it. Or should we just keep her?
Here is her cute picture...
