Right before I agreed to foster Millie, I was asked if I would take on another kitty for a different shelter who was losing her home due to inappropriate urination.
The owner was quite upset to let her go but did so knowing her home was completely inappropriate for Morganne. Morganne is blind and that coupled with the stress of living with other kitties and some very young kids was making her life hard.
It has taken her quite a while to relax. Even now I can tell she isn't 100% comfortable and I get the impression she is afraid of being stepped on a she runs to her perch whenever we move around
She likes attention, a lot, and is a bit of a goof when asking for it but she reacts badly when I picked her up and put her on my lap. She still does more lip licking (a sign of being uncomfortable) than I would like.
She has very definite opinions on pretty much everything. She makes me a little nervous occasionally because sometimes when I run my hand down her back she'll whip her head around like she is going to give me what for. However, she loves to have her belly rubbed and will roll around next to me showing off her belly and asking for rubs.
She is one of those blind kitties that the internet warnings on how to deal with blind cats were made for. I put a chair in the room and she had run into it multiple times. I made the mistake of putting her wet food in the wrong side of her dry food and it was obvious that she completely disapproved.
She would love a quiet home where her new people will be okay with multiple weeks of her adjusting to them and give her a regular routine on a daily basis. She growled at me when I came home smelling like a dog so I'm guessing she would prefer to be the only pet.
Some blind kitties need lots of help, and it sounds like Morganne is one of those.
ReplyDeleteSweet girl. Hopefully she settles in and the purrfect homes turns up soon for her
ReplyDeletePurrayers and POTP for you and Morganne...and a hat tip to her former owner who sought help for her rather than a kill shelter.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful girl and her name is as well. I hope all goes well for her. No one could blame her for her troubles and problems.
ReplyDeleteShe is beautiful. I hope she gets a forever home to her liking. XO
ReplyDeleteYou will work your magic on her, Connie. Mahalo for taking on a very challenging kitty. She will be a totally different kitty once she is completely relaxed in a quiet environment.
ReplyDeleteMorganne's little face in your picture of her in the white bed looks like she has been let down. Things are about to get better for her with your wonderful help.
ReplyDeleteActually, I think that little tilt of the head is a soft sweet "you get me" kind of look. No matter what, her life will be better thanks to you.
DeletePurring for this sweet kitty, who will find her purrfect home because of her foster mom!
ReplyDeleteI hope Morganne can find a home that is purrfect for her. ~Ernie
ReplyDeleteBeautiful girl! I hope she finds her forever home soon.
ReplyDeletePersonality is always on a spectrum. She is apparently on the fearful end of it. I believe you can help her build her confidence. {{Hugs}} to you and her.
ReplyDeleteThank you for helping Morganne. We hope she is able to find a patient, understanding and loving home soon.
ReplyDeleteSHe is pretty and blessed to be cared for by you
ReplyDeleteShe is a pretty kitty and I purr she gets that purrfect home.
ReplyDeletePurrs, Julie
