sweet baby gingie
UPDATE: after i dropped him off i wept so hard BUT the couple i contacted on reddit ended up adopting him!! and they have another sweet orange cat so he’s never spending a single night in the shelter again!! so thankful for reddit 💕💕💕
hi guys,
I wanted to make this post to help me with coming to terms with the end of my foster journey with sweet 7 year old Gingie.
I met him at the shelter and I absolutely fell in love. I asked if I could foster him for a bit, and decided really quickly i was seriously interested in adoption. I bought everything and was so beyond excited because I’ve never loved or bonded with a cat more in my life.
Ultimately, I came to the decision that with the way my apartment is set up, I don’t have enough space to comfortably live with this velcro baby. With the help of Reddit, I was able to find a family going to visit him shortly after I drop him off tomorrow morning, and they are super excited and aware he’s FIV + , I also told the shelter to give all my supplies to the next family who adopts him (months worth of food, beds, litter, litter box, treats, toys) . I just want him to be happy.
He’s the absolute sweetest cat in the world, and he just loves being near his human. He’s never bit, scratched, nipped, the only thing he does is meow cause he wants to be pet.
Putting some pictures of this sweet boy (last pic is him sleeping rn next to me) , I’m going to love him forever, and I don’t think I can get a cat for a while even after I move because I will be missing him for a long time. So thankful for the beautiful couple adopting him, and fingers crossed he won’t sleep ina. shelter again for the rest of his life after drop off!!
