So I recently rescued this sweet little tabby from the Meijer parking lot. She had been stuck under the extra carts for about a week according to the employees and they couldn’t get her out. I sat for an hour and half tossing her turkey and getting her closer and closer to me until she eventually ended up in my lap. I haven’t been able to get her to the vet yet, our vet is about an hour away. She’s also my very very first cat EVER! So this is such a fun and exciting experience, as I have ALWAYS wanted a cat. She has adjusted very very well to our home, the first night home she snuggles and purred and slept with me in the bed! I would never have known she was a stray if I didn’t save her myself lol She’s super energetic, loves to play, loves my two little girls (1 year and 3 years old) she has also taken up SUPER well with my husband and he was more than apprehensive about bringing a cat into our home. She is having trouble with our puppers though. I have an 8lb papillon who is scared of EVERYTHING, including her lol it doesn’t help that at night she “hunts” him in the bed. I gently move her and gently say “no Nix” (we have named her Nix after Stevie Nicks!) I did lose her for about 2 hours the other day but she was asleep in a couch flap it was pretty funny.
but the first thing I noticed about her was her ear!! It’s like permanently bent at the tip. I looked it up and can’t find anything other than “tipping” on stray cats but it’s not tipped, just bent! Does anyone else have a little tabby or a cat with a bent ear tip?? It doesn’t seem to bother her at all but for some reason it does seem to mess with her ear mobility as she can’t twist that one backwards as far as the other ear. She hasn’t scratched at it or anything if that nature!
sorry for the long winded opening! I’m just SUPER excited to have her in our little family! She is the perfect fit and just SO SWEET!!
