I finally found my big cat a home! She seems pretty much a loner cat and has not adjusted at all to the house with other cats in the 6 months I've had her. She has a Jekyll/Hyde personality, purring when petted only to bite or snarl at you. She also was terrible to attack the other cats and would bite the hell out of them. Her favorite thing was to wake them up by biting them, then fighting them. When they would try to play with her, she'd growl, hiss and fight them. Sometimes she'd just mosey off by herself. She also was absolutely obsessed with getting outside. The other cats are strictly indoor cats.
I gave her to a long time friend who will make her an outside pen. He's building in his patio and will now customize it for her. She will be the only pet and will have full run of the house, with two stories, basement, and central air. No other cats for her to worry about or aggravate her.
She's so beautiful, a large breed Tabby with white belly and feet. I will miss her terribly, in spite of her craziness. I'll miss those big, beautiful eyes. I'll miss her waking me up at 5 AM by walking on me. I'll miss her little meow when I break out the wet food. I'll miss the funny way she'd sit on the dressers and pull her head down and twist her neck upright like the Exorcist or something.
It breaks my heart to give her up but I know she's not happy with me. I'm in tears as I type this.
I'm certain I've done the right thing so she can be happy and more free, less aggravated. Yet my mother tells me I'm selfish and mean for "getting rid of her".
I guess I'm just looking for reassurance I've done the right thing by her.
