you're going to think i'm a monster...

because i'm thinking of giving tinkerbell up already. that's not to say i do not like her or have not spent a lot of time and money bonding with her. both have been implemented to a high degree.i've even been dealing with the cat poopy quite fine, jenn. but it's day four and the allergies which were supposed to be subsiding at this point have not been. it's not that i was like "cat+allergies=a hell of a good time!" but was under the impression that spending time living with a cat can help with the allergies and can make them go away. this was assured to me by cat owners and animal health technicians alike.

this is a lie.

i'm stressed due to all the cat hair, and all she wants is some love and pets and maybe a cat treat or two.it seems silly to give her back up to the SPCA after spending the time and money getting all the supplies and well, tinkerbell. so rather than seeing this as another shitty idea that failed, i'm hoping someone will be able to give tinkerbell a good home. why pay at the spca when there's a great kitty here who just wants a couple of hiding spots and to chase her shadow?

PS anyone who is thinking of commenting with an 'i told you so' or a 'you knew you were allergic' please don't. i have bonded with tinkerbell and this isn't easy to admit i've made a bad decision and one that will affect my cat. i already know this is a shitty thing, so no affirmations, thanks.

I'll talk to Krista, and depending on what she says, we'll see how Tink gets along with the other kids here.

I'd take your kitty if I didn't frequently move and have trouble keeping living things alive. Sorry, friend.

Meghan, I am sorry that you can't keep your cat.

Who the fuck is Tinkerbell? I thought you were getting a cat named Sugarplum. I have an easy solution to your allergies. Just boil the cat until all the fur falls out. You may not be able to snuggle with it in quite the same way, but if you put it in the oven at 350 with a little bbq sauce...mmmm.
