So many cats suffer "bad behavior" when it's really the bad behavior of the previous owner (e.g. litterbox issue -- who would want to use a sewer for a restroom? So many people don't clean out the litter often enough, and cats' sense of smell is 14 times more sensitive than our own!). Plus, the stress of shelter living often makes it appear a cat has "issues" that are simply stress related and so often disappear when in a home environment!<br />Thank you for sharing and for adopting your wonderful black housepanther!A Tonlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08088764837982515116noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6230122208316058154.post-21109274571222924592017-05-15T06:40:46.541-05:002017-05-15T06:40:46.541-05:00I let my cat adopt me when I saw that he was 10 y....I let my cat adopt me when I saw that he was 10 y.o., black and had behavior problems including litter box issues. That was 3 years ago and he has been one of the most loving and best behaved cats I have ever had. There has never been one single litter box accident and he displays his love and gratitude in ways that that I have never seen another cat do. I saw his photo on the shelters website and knew he was coming home with me then. Since then he has been one of the best friends I have.

Our Leo was in a shelter for over three years ...it broke our Mama's heart that he had given up when she first looked into his eyes. But he eventually came around and spent the last four years of his life with us, cherished and loved. We hope the same will be true for many of these special and often overlooked kitties. <br />Lisa, a little birdie told us it was your birthday.Happy Birthday!
