#y’all don’t have to read this. it’s going to get super rambly#we're in the process of rehoming Sadie. I don’t like talking about it because I feel like a failure#but I don’t want her to disappear from the blog with no explanation#and it sucks. because I get that she will move on to a different house and a new person and she’ll do wonderfully#with the proper attention she deserves and craves#I bounce between ‘this is for the best. she’s not thriving here’ and ‘how am I supposed to give her away’#she was my first cat (that wasn’t a family pet). I thought I’d never be able to get a cat (because of household allergies)#but there she was- a Devon rex! in a rescue no less#i'd lowkey given up on hopes of having a cat. Bek encouraged me to apply for her#and we'd had horrid luck with rescues in the past when applying for dogs pre-Henry so I was pretty pessimistic about it#especially for a breed like a devon. but they approved our application! i was giddy that whole car trip home with her#and she has the absolute sweetest personality which has been so nice for first time cat owner me. so gentle and affectionate and loving#I’ve tried so much to make her happy here but I'm simply not enough. and i need to recognise that i can't give her what she needs#idk there’s no point to this post just rambling#the rescue we’ve been dealing with takes 2 weeks minimum to reply to any message I send so it’s been a very drawn out process#and my emotions about it are all over the place#I guess one ‘good’ thing is that she helped us realise we could manage a cat in the household in regard to allergies#which means I won’t be completely catless. bebe cats are still here. it's just rough it can’t be her too#the rescue said they’re going to put her ad up today which is why I’m feeling it extra hard at the moment#It’s going to be better for both Sadie and me in the long run but in the meantime I will :(( about it#I was really hoping they’d have a foster who could take her#I don’t know how I’m supposed to hold it together if I have to do meet and greets with potential adopters here
