sad day

So the other day was a bad day, now today is a sad day. After many months of conversations about this, we finally decided to surrender 2 of our cats to the humane society. Our decision was hard to make and selfless on our parts and was for the better of the cats. You see, they are scared to death of dogs and have been living in the rafters of our laundry room. They come down to eat, drink, and use the litter box and sometimes to spend time with the kids, but they are always on alert.

Things got worse when we adopted Bob. Bob doesn't understand it's not ok to terrorize, chase the cats, and trap them in a corner. The poor cats get so scared and fluffy because they are trapped.

I spoke to a friend at the humane society about it and they were willing to take them on. They need to have a home where there are no dogs. Even then, I think it is going to take some time for them to destress.

When we dropped them off tonight, they had peed themselves in the kennel we transported them in. And we literally had to pull and stretch them to get them to come out. It was incredibly sad. And I cried.

I love these cats, but they deserve live in a home free from stress. I hope and pray they are able to go to the same home, so they can stay together, as sisters, like they are.
