We caved....


Yes, we did.

My husband and I brought one of the two abandoned cats to our bookstore. We'll keep the little bruiser there for the winter months. The other cat, Gracie, (we started calling them George and Gracie) is holed up in a large-ish hollowed out piece of foam insulation (actually it looks better than it sounds) and seems to be okay staying there at night. She crawls out in the mornings and runs through the snow to my front door for breakfast.

I'm crossing my fingers that both arrangements will work out for George and Gracie!


ETA: Our landlord at the bookstore has told us we can't have a cat there. So after four days we had to bring him home. It's too bad because the cat had got quickly used to the store and people seemed to like him quite a bit. Well, back to the drawing board.

Donna that is too bad that you couldn't keep that cat there. I do think you should bring it to Ron's. LOL

What is your landlord's problem anyway? I hate these types of people - like having a tiny little cat there will make any bit of difference to him grrrrr!!!

What a grouchy landlord! A cat and a bookstore are a great combination.

Oh, if you can't keep them, please bring both to a shelter :)

That's too bad your landlord wouldn't allow the cat to stay. Can he at least come to work with you? You tried.

That is too bad, Donna. I love visiting bookstores that are homes to cats! I hope you can find them other homes...

Aahhh, how sad you couldn't keep the cats in the bookstore! I hope they find safe homes elsewhere.

That stinks!! Well, maybe Grace will make room for George in her foam house!!

It is shame that you couldn't keep the cats in the store as I think a lot of folks would have enjoyed them (thinking of A Cat Named Dewey here).
