As many people know, I’ve been long-term cat sitting for my friend Garrett. His cat, Minnie as been more or less part of the family here for a few years. Minnie and Nadia have not been getting along well at all in the last 6 months and I’m being reminded more and more that this isn’t just a phase.
Minnie needs to be the dominant or only pet in the household. Now that Nadia has grown up and is sticking up for herself, Minnie isn’t nice to her anymore. She also complains to my roommates and I. Minnie and I had very similar problems when my ex-roommate Kristen got a golden retriever. Minnie was dominant over the puppy until it grew up, then the relationship was really strained. After weeks of discussions and exploring every option with Garrett, some friends of mine and both of my roommates, we’ve had to make the very sad decision to help Minnie find a new home.
Minnie would love a home with no other pets. She’ll greet you when you come home from work or school and she’ll rub up against your leg and hop into your lap when you’re sitting on the couch. She’s also independent enough where she’ll leave you alone too. She doesn’t like to be picked up but she will come up to you. She goes crazy for catnip, loves toys and is amazed by squirrels and birds out the window. She is friendly with human visitors and would love to find a home where she gets to spend time with you. She’s spayed, had her front claws removed before she lived here, has a healthy weight and is 6 years old. She doesn’t come with a price tag but has a collar.
If you have or know of a home for Minnie, please let us know. Thank you. =^..^=

I’m going to toss this info over to a guy I know, Kyle Cassidy. He has a lather large soap box, and a cat following.
Don’t know if it’ll help, but can’t hurt.

When I baby sit Skamp the neighbor cats come around and cause trouble and since Minnie doesn’t have claws she might be taken advantage of. Cute cat…. hrm…
