| I'm sure that people might be afraid of the medical costs of adopting
a sick cat. If it will help, I'll offer $100 toward any medical
expenses that is incurred by the person that will adopt her.

| 1791.4 | thank you, but she needs a home | TALLIS::ROBBINS | | Mon Sep 26 1988 13:18 | 14 |
| It's very sweet of all of you to offer financial help
for Natasha, but that's really not her most severe problem.
I'd be willing to pay her medical bills, etc., so that's
not the problem.
It's just that I can't keep her in my house. It's total
chaos between my dogs freaking out and my husband having
so much trouble breathing. And I don't think we can board
her because she's contagious. (Besides, if we were to board
her indefinitely, I think it'd be cruel. She'd be better off
put down, at least at peace, than living in a cage.)
So again, thanks for your generous offers and kind thoughts,
but what we need is a home for her.

Ahhh but Deb,
Sometimes you have to start backwards to get something
to happen. There just may be somewhere out there someone who would
LOVE to take Natasha but has reservations as to the medical bills
they may end up with if later on she should start to get sick.
If that's the case then what we are doing is trying to erase that
reservation by promising to allot a sizable sum just for that.
It may make the difference to someone out there that is considering
giving Natasha a home. I really really hope so. We're all hoping
and waiting. Time is of the essence at this point.

| 1791.7 | Could she learn to deal with dogs? | TALLIS::ROBBINS | | Mon Sep 26 1988 14:59 | 20 |

> Has this been posted in Canines too????
That's a good idea, because she only has to be
kept away from other cats.
My only hesitation is that she seems to hate dogs.
One of mine is mellow and kind-of goofy, and when she
gently and fairly slowly approaches Natasha just to
check her out, Natasha rewards the dog with a swipe
across the nose. (She reacts the same way to my other
dog who barks and barks at her--not surprising, since
she seems to be deaf!!)
Do you think Natasha could learn to live peacefully
with a dog? I've never had this much trouble getting
dogs and cats to get along in the past--I guess I got
lucky.

| 1791.8 | reprieve | VAXWRK::SKALTSIS | Deb | Mon Sep 26 1988 14:59 | 5 |
| Well, I think that I've lined up a foster home. More in a little
while while the logistic arrangements are being made.

| 1791.9 | could someone post in canine? | TPVAX3::ROBBINS | | Mon Sep 26 1988 15:04 | 9 |
|
Sandi,
I thought of that too but to tell you the truth I really
had to hurry to type this reply and the other reply. If there's
someone (sandi?) who could post this in canine please do!!! I
can't at this point.

I'm going to delay on posting to Canine, because...
Deb Skaltsis found her a foster home!
I'll drop her off tomorrow night. We'll see how things work
out, so we know what we're dealing with before posting
there.
Thanks very much to everyone who helped, and especially
Deb Skaltsis, Kim Robbins, and Joy Lanza.

| 1791.14 | she's at her new foster home | TALLIS::ROBBINS | | Wed Sep 28 1988 10:53 | 13 |

I brought Natasha to her new foster home last night.
She seemed to enjoy having a new home to check out!
Again, this is just a temporary home for her. Again
she'll be locked in a single room to isolate her from
other cats, which she does not seem to enjoy.
So everyone, please keep looking for a permanent home
for Natasha.
Thanks again to everyone who helped out Natasha!

| 1791.15 | Again, she needs a home! | TALLIS::ROBBINS | | Fri Oct 21 1988 14:58 | 25 |
| Just when you thought it was safe to come back to Feline...
Natasha needs a home again.
Things have been working out well for Natasha in her foster home
with Joy Lanza. Three cheers for Joy!!
But, since Joy has another cat, Natasha's been confined to a single
bedroom for the past month or so. Joy says that Natasha seems very
happy, so I guess the confinement doesn't bother her like it used
to. Unfortunately, this situation is disrupting the lives of Joy's
(human) family, so Natasha yet again needs a new home.
Please, can anyone take Natasha in? Even temporarily, as a foster
home? (Please remember the restriction that Natasha must be an indoor
cat and must be isolated from other cats, although dogs are fine!)
If anyone knows anyone who can take in little Natasha (who, by the
way, is filling out, and isn't quite as little as she used to be),
please contact me. I'd be happy to transport her to a new home!
Thanks,
Debbie
