Trust you?


This was taken during Annabelle's first week with me.
You can see the lack of trust.
She was hiding.

***
I don't think she was well treated where she 
was before I adopted her.
It's telling that she was an owner surrender to
a high kill shelter.
In fact, if the rescue group had not been there
that morning, because she was considered
an adult, they would have euthanized her
that day.

***
It makes me shudder to think
that could have been her fate, and the fate of 
her juvenile kitten.

***
If only I could have gotten both of you Annabelle.
It is a sadness I have for you.
But your kitten was adopted before you,
it only happened a few days before I adopted you.
I would have adopted you both.
It's strange to have a regret
that you had no control over, but I do.
Annabelle is such a little Momma cat.

  2. I didn't know you were a mom, Annabelle! That would have been so nice if both of you could have been adopted together. How awful that the two of you were left at a kill shelter, and how fortunate that there was a rescue ready to take you in.

    While you don't have your baby, we are glad it was adopted too.

  7. Annabelle is a lucky girl, and I'm sure her kitten went to a loving home, too, though it's hard to imagine a more loving one than Annabelle's.

  13. I am so glad you rescued Annabelle and at least her kitten was adopted. I completely understand how you feel. When I adopted Joanie and Sammy there was a 3rd sibling already adopted. They had been together 4 and a half years in their other home and I feel so bad that their family got broken up.

  14. We're so glad that the rescue was there at the shelter to pull Annabelle so she could be waiting for you to fall in love with her. She has come a long way, hasn't she?

  15. We can't even think that a beauty like Annabelle may have come to an unfortunate end. Thank cod for the rescue...and you.

  16. No regrets...Debra. Saving Annabelle was a wonderful thing, ad we are going to believe her kitten is having just as great a life. I cannot understand anyone surrendering a kitty to a sure death sentence. Some of our transports have been surrendered kitties, and I often wonder why. We are so happy that Annabelle is now in your amazing loving home. XOCK, Lily Olivia, Mauricio, Misty May, Giulietta, Fiona, Astrid, Lisbeth and Calista Jo
